Fire Glazing Remedial Works
Putting right the defects found in surveys and fire risk assessments.
Learn more →For Margate 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.
In England, information about fire-resisting glazing forms part of the building's safety information. A survey helps build that record.
Defects are graded so you can fix urgent items first and plan the rest.
We can re-inspect after remedial work and update the schedule.
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.
Whether the building is in central Margate or the wider CT9, CT8, CT10 districts, we can survey and quote. We also cover Broadstairs, Ramsgate, Deal. Margate lies roughly 62 km from Maidstone, within our Kent coverage.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Margate budgets are not open-ended.

We can phase work in Margate around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
