What our fire-resistant glass service includes in Coventry

We supply and fit fire-resistant glass into new and existing fire-rated frames, matching the glass type, thickness, beads, seals and fixings to the test or assessment evidence for that frame. The glass on its own does not carry a rating; the combination does, so we start every job by identifying the system you have or need.

  • Integrity with radiation control (EW) laminated glass
  • Glazing beads and fixings to the frame manufacturer's details
  • Intumescent glazing seals, tapes and gaskets to the tested specification
  • Integrity (E) glass: modified toughened, glass-ceramic and polished wired types

What every Coventry quote includes

Honest about unknowns

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

Fixed written quotes

After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Coventry budgets are not open-ended.

Rated systems, not just rated glass

Every quote in Coventry identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.

What to check before ordering fire-resistant glass in Coventry

Inside or outside?

Many insulating fire glasses use interlayers that need protecting from UV and moisture, so external positions need a product approved for exterior use, with the right edge seal and glazing system.

Marking and records

Most fire glass is permanently marked with its product and classification. We record the marks, pane sizes and evidence references on handover so whoever is responsible for fire safety can show what is installed.

Weight and handling

Insulating fire glass gets thicker and heavier as the rating rises. Large EI 60 and EI 120 panes often need lifting equipment and a frame designed for the load, which we plan before the delivery date.

Coventry coverage and nearby towns

Our West Midlands coverage takes in Coventry (CV1, CV3, CV6, CV2, CV5) and the neighbouring towns of Kenilworth, Bedworth, Nuneaton. Coventry is about 28 km from Birmingham, the largest town in our West Midlands coverage.

England regulations that shape the job

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.

Fire-Resistant Glass: Coventry questions

Do you supply fire glass only?

Our service is supply and installation, because the rating depends on how the glass is fitted. For trade buyers we can quote supply of cut-to-size panes with the matching glazing materials on request.

Can you match glass that is already installed?

Often, yes. We read the marks on the existing panes and check them against the frame evidence. Where the original product is discontinued we look for an alternative covered by the same evidence or a formal assessment.

Can you price fire-resistant glass in Coventry from photos?

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.

How quickly can you survey in Coventry?

Survey timing in Coventry 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.
