Fire Glazing Surveys: what you get in East Sussex

- Costed remedial options
- Pane-by-pane schedule with locations
- Defects prioritised by risk
Key checks for East Sussex projects
Re-survey after works
We can re-inspect after remedial work and update the schedule.
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.

Questions from East Sussex clients
Is a survey the same as a fire risk assessment?
No. A fire risk assessment looks at the whole premises. A fire glazing survey looks in detail at the glazed elements of the compartmentation.
Who needs a fire glazing survey?
Building owners, managing agents, those responsible for fire safety and contractors who need to know whether glazing in fire-resisting walls and doors is suitable.
Can a survey confirm my glazing is compliant?
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.
Can you survey anywhere in East Sussex?
Yes. We can arrange surveys anywhere in East Sussex, including Brighton and Eastbourne, Hastings, Hove, Bexhill-on-Sea.
