What's involved with fire glazing surveys in Ely
Surveys help building owners, managing agents and those responsible for fire safety understand their compartmentation, prepare for building control scrutiny, and plan remedial budgets. We produce a clear schedule with photographs, priorities and costed remedial options.
- Beads, seals and fixings checked visually
- Pane-by-pane schedule with locations
- Defects prioritised by risk
- Glass marks and classifications recorded
Before you order fire glazing surveys: what matters
What a survey can and cannot show
A visual survey records marks, materials and visible defects. It cannot prove a frame's rating without evidence, so we flag unknowns clearly rather than guessing.
Fire risk assessments
Surveys often follow a fire risk assessment action. We address the specific items raised.
Re-survey after works
We can re-inspect after remedial work and update the schedule.
Ely coverage and nearby towns
Our Cambridgeshire coverage takes in Ely (CB7, CB6) and the neighbouring towns of Newmarket, March, Cambridge. Peterborough, around 40 km from Ely, is the largest town in the same coverage area.
What you can expect in Ely
Rated systems, not just rated glass
Every quote in Ely identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
Evidence you can file
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
Fixed written quotes
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Ely budgets are not open-ended.
Which rules apply to fire glazing surveys in Ely?
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.
