What our fire glazing surveys service includes in Wednesbury
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.
- Costed remedial options
- Glass marks and classifications recorded
- Beads, seals and fixings checked visually
- Pane-by-pane schedule with locations
What to check before ordering fire glazing surveys in Wednesbury
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 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.
