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.
We can re-inspect after remedial work and update the schedule.
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.
Whether the building is in central Bournemouth or the wider BH1, BH2, BH4, BH3, BH5, BH9 districts, we can survey and quote. We also cover Christchurch, Poole, New Milton. Bournemouth is the main town we cover in Dorset.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Bournemouth budgets are not open-ended.
Every quote in Bournemouth identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
We can phase work in Bournemouth around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
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.
