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.
Walk-on glass needs an anti-slip finish; it must be one covered by the system.
A glass floor must carry its design load during the fire period. Only systems tested for both should be used.
Tested floor panels have maximum spans. Larger openings are divided by a supporting grid.
Building regulations are devolved in Wales, so fire safety design follows the Welsh Ministers' version of Approved Document B rather than the English one, alongside impact safety guidance for glazing.
The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies in Wales, so the responsible person must maintain fire-resisting glazing as part of the premises' fire safety measures. The Fire Safety Act 2021 confirmed this extends to the structure, external walls and flat entrance doors of multi-occupied residential buildings.
Wales is introducing its own building safety regime for occupied residential buildings, so check current Welsh requirements before planning major works to blocks of flats.
Whether the building is in central Pontypridd or the wider CF37 districts, we can survey and quote. We also cover Tonypandy, Caerphilly, Rhondda. Rhondda, around 10 km from Pontypridd, is the largest town in the same coverage area.
We can phase work in Pontypridd around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in Wales, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Pontypridd budgets are not open-ended.

Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
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.
