What's involved with fire glazing surveys in Barking

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.

  • Pane-by-pane schedule with locations
  • Frame type and condition notes
  • Defects prioritised by risk
  • Glass marks and classifications recorded
