- Beads, seals and fixings checked visually

Before you order fire glazing surveys: what matters
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.
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 glazing rules in England
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.

The Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties for multi-occupied residential buildings, including fire door checks in buildings over 11 metres.
