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.
Integrity glass costs a fraction of insulated glass and fits slimmer frames, which is why specifying it correctly matters.
Modern integrity glass is usually available with an impact classification, unlike plain wired glass.
E glass gets hot in a fire. Furniture or stored materials beside it can ignite from radiated heat.
Our Merseyside coverage takes in Bootle (L20, L22, L21, L23, L30, L68) and the neighbouring towns of Litherland, Wallasey, Liverpool. Bootle is about 7 km from Liverpool, the largest town in our Merseyside coverage.
Every quote in Bootle identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Bootle budgets are not open-ended.
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.
