How we work in Bow

Evidence you can file

You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.

Honest about unknowns

If an existing frame in a Bow building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.

Work around occupied buildings

We can phase work in Bow around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.

Sizes are limited

Tested floor panels have maximum spans. Larger openings are divided by a supporting grid.

Slip resistance
