What our fire glazing surveys service includes in Croydon

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.

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

Before you order fire glazing surveys: what matters

Common findings

Unmarked or ordinary glass in fire-resisting walls, missing seals, painted-over intumescent strips, wrong beads and unsealed service holes are frequent findings.

Prioritised output

Defects are graded so you can fix urgent items first and plan the rest.

Re-survey after works

We can re-inspect after remedial work and update the schedule.

FAQs for Croydon

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.

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.

How quickly can you survey in Croydon?

Survey timing in Croydon depends on access, the size of the building and how urgent the defect is. Tell us your deadline when you enquire and we will confirm a date before you commit.

Which rules apply to fire-rated glazing in Croydon?

Building work in Croydon follows the Building Regulations 2010 and Approved Document B, and occupied buildings are covered by the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.
