Before you order fire glazing surveys: what matters
Re-survey after works
We can re-inspect after remedial work and update the schedule.
Prioritised output
Defects are graded so you can fix urgent items first and plan the rest.
Higher-risk buildings
In England, information about fire-resisting glazing forms part of the building's safety information. A survey helps build that record.
England regulations that shape the job
England Which rules apply?
Building work in England is covered by the Building Regulations 2010, with fire safety guidance in Approved Document B and impact safety guidance for glazing in Approved Document K.
Once a building is in use, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires the responsible person to maintain fire safety measures, including fire-resisting glazing. The Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties for multi-occupied residential buildings, including fire door checks in buildings over 11 metres.
In higher-risk buildings, broadly 18 metres or seven storeys with two or more homes, the Building Safety Regulator is the building control authority. England is also phasing out BS 476 references from Approved Document B, with the remaining fire-resistance references due to go in September 2029.

Fixed written quotes
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Kempston budgets are not open-ended.
Kempston building types
We can survey and quote for offices, care homes and other building types in Kempston.
