Fire Glazing Surveys in Ilford: what's included

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.

  • Beads, seals and fixings checked visually
  • Costed remedial options
  • Pane-by-pane schedule with locations
  • Defects prioritised by risk

Before you order fire glazing surveys: what matters

Fire risk assessments

Surveys often follow a fire risk assessment action. We address the specific items raised.

Re-survey after works

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

Prioritised output

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

England regulations that shape the job

England Which rules apply?

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.

FAQs for Ilford

How long does a survey take?

It depends on the number of glazed elements and access. Most single buildings are surveyed in a day or less.

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.

Do you work on occupied buildings in Ilford?

Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.

Can you price fire glazing surveys in Ilford from photos?

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.
