Tell us what you need. We reply with next steps and a guide price.
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.
External walls close to a boundary may need to be fire-resisting with limited unprotected areas. Fixed glazing that meets the wall's full fire-resistance requirement, including insulation where required, is not counted as unprotected area, so it can let you keep glass in those positions.
External fire glass must be suitable for UV and weather exposure, usually in a sealed double-glazed unit with the fire pane positioned as tested.
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 Ruislip or the wider HA4, UB10, HA5, HA6, UB5, UB9 districts, we can survey and quote. We also cover Northolt, Uxbridge, Harrow. We cover Ruislip as part of our Greater London coverage.
Every quote in Ruislip identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
If an existing frame in a Ruislip building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
We can phase work in Ruislip around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
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.
