Fire Glazing Remedial Works
Putting right the defects found in surveys and fire risk assessments.

Surveys help building owners, managing agents and those responsible for fire safety understand their compartmentation, prepare for building control scrutiny, and plan remedial budgets. We produce a clear schedule with photographs, priorities and costed remedial options.
Surveys often follow a fire risk assessment action. We address the specific items raised.
Defects are graded so you can fix urgent items first and plan the rest.
Unmarked or ordinary glass in fire-resisting walls, missing seals, painted-over intumescent strips, wrong beads and unsealed service holes are frequent findings.
Survey visits can be arranged anywhere in Wellingborough, including the NN8 districts, and in nearby Rushden, Kettering, Northampton. Wellingborough lies roughly 14 km from Northampton, within our Northamptonshire coverage.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
Every quote in Wellingborough identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
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.
Sector guides below cover schools and colleges, offices and other buildings in Wellingborough.
Building owners, managing agents, those responsible for fire safety and contractors who need to know whether glazing in fire-resisting walls and doors is suitable.
It depends on the number of glazed elements and access. Most single buildings are surveyed in a day or less.
We can give a guide range from photos and sizes, including a clear photo of any marks on the glass. A fixed price follows a survey.
Survey timing in Wellingborough depends on access, the size of the building and how urgent the defect is. Tell us your deadline when you enquire and we will confirm a date before you commit.
