We supply and install fire-rated curtain walling and fire-rated zones within standard curtain walling, alongside the fire-stopping at slab edges. External wall work is closely scrutinised after recent regulatory changes, so every element we fit is backed by evidence for its position.
Every quote in Ellesmere Port identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
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 Ellesmere Port budgets are not open-ended.
The gap between the curtain wall and each floor slab needs fire-stopping designed with the facade, not added afterwards.
In England, materials in the external walls of relevant buildings 18 metres or more in height are restricted. We coordinate with the facade designer on every component.
Fire-rated units can still meet thermal targets when specified correctly; we confirm U-values with the system supplier.
Whether the building is in central Ellesmere Port or the wider CH65, CH34, CH66, CH2 districts, we can survey and quote. We also cover Garston, Speke, Chester. Ellesmere Port lies roughly 25 km from Warrington, within our Cheshire coverage.
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.
