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.
Coverage around Egham includes the TW20, GU25, TW18, TW19 districts and nearby Staines-upon-Thames, Ashford, Windsor. Woking, around 13 km from Egham, is the largest town in the same coverage area.
Timber frames need dry conditions on site and acclimatisation before glazing to avoid movement around the glass.
Heavier insulating glass may need larger sections; we confirm the frame can carry the chosen build-up.
Timber screens are tested with specific species and minimum densities. Softwood substitutions or thinner sections can fall outside the evidence.
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.
If an existing frame in a Egham building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Egham budgets are not open-ended.
Timber fire-rated screens applies to many building types in Egham, including care homes and hotels.
Yes. The timber can be painted, stained or lacquered. Intumescent seals are kept clear of paint.
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.
Building work in Egham follows the Building Regulations 2010 and Approved Document B, and occupied buildings are covered by the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.
Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.

We visit Egham to measure, record existing marks and check the frames and substrate.
Your quote lists each item with its classification and the evidence it relies on.
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.
