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.
We cover Market Harborough and the surrounding postcode districts, including LE16. Nearby towns we also serve include Corby, Kettering, Wigston. Market Harborough lies roughly 23 km from Leicester, within our Leicestershire coverage.
Unmarked or ordinary glass in fire-resisting walls, missing seals, painted-over intumescent strips, wrong beads and unsealed service holes are frequent findings.
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.
