Putting right the defects found in surveys and fire risk assessments.
Learn more →From the HP5 district outwards, we arrange fire glazing surveys for buildings across Chesham, matching glass, frames and seals to tested evidence rather than guesswork.

A fire glazing survey is a non-destructive inspection of the glazed screens, doors, panels and windows in fire-resisting walls, recording what glass and frames are installed, whether they appear consistent with the required rating, and what defects need putting right.
Unmarked or ordinary glass in fire-resisting walls, missing seals, painted-over intumescent strips, wrong beads and unsealed service holes are frequent findings.
We can re-inspect after remedial work and update the schedule.
Surveys often follow a fire risk assessment action. We address the specific items raised.
Coverage around Chesham includes the HP5, HP6, HP7 districts and nearby Amersham, Berkhamsted, Chalfont St Peter. Milton Keynes, around 39 km from Chesham, is the largest town in the same coverage area.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
Every quote in Chesham identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
If an existing frame in a Chesham building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
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.
Fire glazing surveys applies to many building types in Chesham, including blocks of flats and hotels.
