Fire Glazing Remedial Works
Putting right the defects found in surveys and fire risk assessments.
Learn more →From the IG1 district outwards, we arrange fire glazing surveys for buildings across Ilford, matching glass, frames and seals to tested evidence rather than guesswork.
Tell us what you need. We reply with next steps and a guide price.
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.
Coverage around Ilford includes the IG1, E12, IG3, IG2, IG11, IG4 districts and nearby Barking, Becontree, Leytonstone. We cover Ilford as part of our Greater London coverage.
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.
Defects are graded so you can fix urgent items first and plan the rest.
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.
We can phase work in Ilford around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
If an existing frame in a Ilford building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Ilford budgets are not open-ended.
Sector guides below cover offices, schools and colleges and other buildings in Ilford.
It depends on the number of glazed elements and access. Most single buildings are surveyed in a day or less.
No. A fire risk assessment looks at the whole premises. A fire glazing survey looks in detail at the glazed elements of the compartmentation.
Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
We can give a guide range from photos and sizes, including a clear photo of any marks on the glass. A fixed price follows a survey.
