Fire Glazing Surveys in Rochester: 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
- Frame type and condition notes
- Defects prioritised by risk
- Pane-by-pane schedule with locations
