Fire Glazing Remedial Works
Putting right the defects found in surveys and fire risk assessments.
Learn more →We provide fire glazing surveys in Godalming and across Surrey, working from the classification your building needs and handing over the evidence that proves what was fitted.

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 can phase work in Godalming around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Godalming budgets are not open-ended.
We can re-inspect after remedial work and update the schedule.
Defects are graded so you can fix urgent items first and plan the rest.
Surveys often follow a fire risk assessment action. We address the specific items raised.
Whether the building is in central Godalming or the wider GU7, GU8 districts, we can survey and quote. We also cover Guildford, Aldershot, Farnham. Woking, around 15 km from Godalming, is the largest town in the same coverage area.
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.
In higher-risk buildings, broadly 18 metres or seven storeys with two or more homes, the Building Safety Regulator is the building control authority. England is also phasing out BS 476 references from Approved Document B, with the remaining fire-resistance references due to go in September 2029.
Fire glazing surveys applies to many building types in Godalming, including hotels and blocks of flats.
