What's involved with fire glazing surveys in Walsall

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.

  • Frame type and condition notes
  • Beads, seals and fixings checked visually
  • Costed remedial options
  • Defects prioritised by risk

Key checks for Walsall projects

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.

Common findings

Unmarked or ordinary glass in fire-resisting walls, missing seals, painted-over intumescent strips, wrong beads and unsealed service holes are frequent findings.

Prioritised output

Defects are graded so you can fix urgent items first and plan the rest.
