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.
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Cheltenham budgets are not open-ended.
We can phase work in Cheltenham around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
Surveys often follow a fire risk assessment action. We address the specific items raised.
We can re-inspect after remedial work and update the schedule.
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.
Survey visits can be arranged anywhere in Cheltenham, including the GL50, GL51, GL52 districts, and in nearby Tewkesbury, Gloucester, Stroud. Gloucester, around 12 km from Cheltenham, is the largest town in the same coverage area.
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.
Fire glazing surveys applies to many building types in Cheltenham, including retail and leisure units and blocks of flats.
