Before you order fire glazing surveys: what matters
Higher-risk buildings
In England, information about fire-resisting glazing forms part of the building's safety information. A survey helps build that record.
Re-survey after works
We can re-inspect after remedial work and update the schedule.
Fire risk assessments
Surveys often follow a fire risk assessment action. We address the specific items raised.
England regulations that shape the job
England Which rules apply?
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.
