Putting right the defects found in surveys and fire risk assessments.
Learn more →For Hazel Grove buildings, we supply, replace and check fire glazing surveys wherever the fire strategy depends on it, working to the tested system rather than the glass alone.

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.
We can phase work in Hazel Grove around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Hazel Grove budgets are not open-ended.
We can re-inspect after remedial work and update the schedule.
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.
Unmarked or ordinary glass in fire-resisting walls, missing seals, painted-over intumescent strips, wrong beads and unsealed service holes are frequent findings.
Coverage around Hazel Grove includes the SK7, SK2, SK12, SK6, SK1, SK3 districts and nearby Stockport, Cheadle Hulme, Hyde. Hazel Grove lies roughly 13 km from Manchester, within our Greater Manchester coverage.
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.
Fire glazing surveys applies to many building types in Hazel Grove, including retail and leisure units and public buildings.
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.
