What's involved with fire glazing surveys in Sutton

- Glass marks and classifications recorded
- Costed remedial options
- Defects prioritised by risk
- Beads, seals and fixings checked visually

Key checks for Sutton projects
What a survey can and cannot show
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.
Re-survey after works
We can re-inspect after remedial work and update the schedule.
Higher-risk buildings
In England, information about fire-resisting glazing forms part of the building's safety information. A survey helps build that record.
