Insulated Fire Glass (EI)
EI 30 to EI 120 glass that blocks heat as well as flames.
Learn more →From the TR1 district outwards, we arrange fire-rated glass floors for buildings across Truro, matching glass, frames and seals to tested evidence rather than guesswork.
Tell us what you need. We reply with next steps and a guide price.
Fire-rated glass floors and horizontal rooflights are specialist systems with limited sizes and tested frames. We supply and install them where the evidence matches your span, load and rating, and coordinate the structural support with your engineer.
Obscured or patterned surfaces can be specified within the system for privacy below.
Tested floor panels have maximum spans. Larger openings are divided by a supporting grid.
Horizontal glazing in a fire-rated roof or floor behaves differently from a wall, so wall glass cannot simply be laid flat.
Our Cornwall coverage takes in Truro (TR1) and the neighbouring towns of Falmouth, Redruth, Newquay. Truro is the largest town in our Cornwall coverage.
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
We can phase work in Truro around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
Every quote in Truro identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
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.
We can survey and quote for blocks of flats, industrial units and other building types in Truro.
R is load-bearing capacity, E is integrity and I is insulation. A floor needs R because it carries people and loads.
Yes, using specialist tested systems that cover load-bearing capacity as well as integrity and insulation.
We can give a guide range from photos and sizes, including a clear photo of any marks on the glass. A fixed price follows a survey.
Yes. We survey and install in Truro and across Cornwall, including the TR1 district and nearby Falmouth.

We visit Truro to measure, record existing marks and check the frames and substrate.
We set out the system, glass, evidence and programme, with a fixed price.
We install, photograph seals and fixings before closing up, and hand over the schedule.
Send sizes, photos of any glass marks or your inspection report and we will come back with the right tested system.
