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.
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.
Surveys often follow a fire risk assessment action. We address the specific items raised.
We cover Kenilworth and the surrounding postcode districts, including CV8, CV4. Nearby towns we also serve include Warwick, Coventry, Royal Leamington Spa. Kenilworth is about 21 km from Nuneaton, the largest town in our Warwickshire coverage.
If an existing frame in a Kenilworth building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
Every quote in Kenilworth identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
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.
