Fire Glazing Remedial Works
Putting right the defects found in surveys and fire risk assessments.
Learn more →When a fire strategy, inspection report or building control comment in Flint calls for glazing tested to resist fire, our fire glazing surveys service covers survey, supply and installation.

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.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Flint budgets are not open-ended.
If an existing frame in a Flint building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in Wales, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
Unmarked or ordinary glass in fire-resisting walls, missing seals, painted-over intumescent strips, wrong beads and unsealed service holes are frequent findings.
Surveys often follow a fire risk assessment action. We address the specific items raised.
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.
We cover Flint and the surrounding postcode districts, including CH6. Nearby towns we also serve include Deeside, Buckley, Heswall. Wrexham, around 24 km from Flint, is the largest town in the same coverage area.
Building regulations are devolved in Wales, so fire safety design follows the Welsh Ministers' version of Approved Document B rather than the English one, alongside impact safety guidance for glazing.
The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies in Wales, so the responsible person must maintain fire-resisting glazing as part of the premises' fire safety measures. The Fire Safety Act 2021 confirmed this extends to the structure, external walls and flat entrance doors of multi-occupied residential buildings.
Sector guides below cover industrial units, care homes and other buildings in Flint.
No. A fire risk assessment looks at the whole premises. A fire glazing survey looks in detail at the glazed elements of the compartmentation.
It can confirm what is visible and recorded, and identify defects. Proving a rating may need manufacturer evidence or an assessment from a test body.
We can give a guide range from photos and sizes, including a clear photo of any marks on the glass. A fixed price follows a survey.
Yes. We survey and install in Flint and across Clwyd, including the CH6 district and nearby Deeside.
