Key checks for Eccles projects
Cost advantage
Integrity glass costs a fraction of insulated glass and fits slimmer frames, which is why specifying it correctly matters.
Limits on escape routes
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.
Impact safety
Modern integrity glass is usually available with an impact classification, unlike plain wired glass.

What every Eccles quote includes
England rules applied
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
Fixed written quotes
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Eccles budgets are not open-ended.
Honest about unknowns
If an existing frame in a Eccles building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
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.
