What's involved with fire glazing surveys in East Kilbride

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.

  • Frame type and condition notes
  • Defects prioritised by risk
  • Beads, seals and fixings checked visually
  • Glass marks and classifications recorded

What to check before ordering fire glazing surveys in East Kilbride

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.

Fire risk assessments

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

Re-survey after works

We can re-inspect after remedial work and update the schedule.

Fire glazing rules in Scotland

Scotland Which rules apply?

In Scotland, building work needs a building warrant under the Building (Scotland) Regulations 2004, with fire guidance in Section 2 of the Building Standards Technical Handbooks rather than Approved Documents.

For relevant premises, the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 place duties on the duty holder to maintain fire safety measures, which include fire-resisting glazing.
