What our fire glazing surveys service includes in Swinton

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.

  • Glass marks and classifications recorded
  • Costed remedial options
  • Pane-by-pane schedule with locations
  • Frame type and condition notes

Key checks for Swinton 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.

Prioritised output

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

Fire risk assessments

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