Tell us what you need. We reply with next steps and a guide price.
We supply and fit integrity glass in screens, doors, vision panels and windows where the fire strategy allows it, and upgrade to EW or EI where it does not. Choosing correctly between E, EW and EI is where most of the cost on a project is decided.
We can phase work in Welling around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
Every quote in Welling identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Welling budgets are not open-ended.
Integrity-only glass may be acceptable in some fire-resisting partitions, screens and doors, often at high level, within the limits national guidance sets. Compartment walls normally need insulating (EI) glazing.
Building guidance restricts how much integrity-only glass can be used on protected escape routes and where it can sit. Check the route before choosing E glass.
E glass gets hot in a fire. Furniture or stored materials beside it can ignite from radiated heat.
Our Greater London coverage takes in Welling (DA16, DA6, DA7, DA15, SE2, DA5) and the neighbouring towns of Bexley, Eltham, Thamesmead. We cover Welling as part of our Greater London coverage.
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.
We can survey and quote for hotels, public buildings and other building types in Welling.
Yes, considerably, and it is thinner and lighter.
EW glass also limits heat radiation through the glass, which reduces the risk to people and materials near it.
Survey timing in Welling 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.
Yes. We survey and install in Welling and across Greater London, including the DA16 district and nearby Bexley.
