What our fire-rated glass floors service includes in Notting Hill
A fire-rated glass floor is a walk-on glazed floor panel, set in a tested support frame, that keeps both its load-bearing capacity and its fire resistance for a stated time. Because a floor carries load, its classification also includes R for load-bearing capacity alongside integrity and insulation.
- Anti-slip surface treatments within the system
- Horizontal fire-rated rooflights
- Coordination with the structural engineer
- Steel support frames to the tested details
How we work in Notting Hill
Rated systems, not just rated glass

If an existing frame in a Notting Hill building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
What to check before ordering fire-rated glass floors in Notting Hill
Rooflights
Horizontal glazing in a fire-rated roof or floor behaves differently from a wall, so wall glass cannot simply be laid flat.
Programme
Glass floors are made to order with longer lead times; we plan early with your contractor.
Slip resistance
Walk-on glass needs an anti-slip finish; it must be one covered by the system.

Fire glazing rules in England
England Which rules apply?
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.
