What our fire glazing surveys service includes in Truro

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.

  • Costed remedial options
  • Defects prioritised by risk
  • Frame type and condition notes
  • Beads, seals and fixings checked visually

Before you order fire glazing surveys: what matters
