What's involved with timber fire-rated screens in Skegness
The rating depends on the timber species and density, frame sections, bead profiles, fixings and the glazing seals used in the test. We build timber screens to a tested specification, or to a formal assessment, and finish them without compromising the intumescent details.

- Fire glass with the specified intumescent glazing system
What every Skegness quote includes
Fixed written quotes
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Skegness budgets are not open-ended.
Honest about unknowns
If an existing frame in a Skegness building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
England rules applied
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
Key checks for Skegness projects
Finishing
Paint and stain are fine on the timber, but intumescent seals must stay clear of paint. We mask them during finishing.
Beads are part of the rating
Bead profile, height and fixing type and spacing are all taken from the test. Short-cutting the fixings is a common reason screens fail inspection.
Insulating glass weight
Heavier insulating glass may need larger sections; we confirm the frame can carry the chosen build-up.

Questions about timber fire-rated screens in Skegness
Can timber screens be painted?
Yes. The timber can be painted, stained or lacquered. Intumescent seals are kept clear of paint.
Can you upgrade an old timber screen?
Sometimes. If the frame can be shown to be suitable, we can replace non-rated glass and add the correct seals and beads. Where it cannot, replacement is the honest answer.
Do you work on occupied buildings in Skegness?
Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
How quickly can you survey in Skegness?
Survey timing in Skegness depends on access, the size of the building and how urgent the defect is. Tell us your deadline when you enquire and we will confirm a date before you commit.
