Fire door remedials from your inspection report
Send the report and we turn each red line into a finished door.

How we go through it
We take the report door by door. When a line says closer fails and gap too wide at the head, we split it into two items on one door, each with its own price.
Some lines cannot be priced as written. If a report says defective and nothing else, we ask for a photo before we say what is wrong. If the photo and the note disagree, we tell you that too, because it happens.
Whose report
We have worked from reports by independent inspectors, fire risk assessors and landlords' surveyors.
If you have not had an inspection, get one before you ask us for repairs. An inspection looks at every door in detail. A fire risk assessment looks at the building as a whole and will not list every closer and seal.
Order of work
Most clients start with doors on escape routes and flat entrances, then clear the rest in batches. We are happy with that plan provided somebody writes down why the doors were put in that order.
We keep a running list as we go, so you can see which references are done and which are still open.
Price
We give each door a fixed price, and parts we do not end up using come off the bill. If the crew finds something nobody could have seen from the report, we phone before doing anything about it.
Doors close together cost less per door than doors scattered over several sites, because a van and a crew have to reach Uxbridge either way.
The record
We hand over a pack that lists each door by its report reference, with the work carried out, the parts used and photos from before and after.
Our own carpenters do the repairs. Where third-party certification is needed, our BM TRADA-certificated contractors carry the work out.
Put the pack in your fire safety file. It answers the first question an enforcement officer will ask.
Deadlines
The government's guidance for tall residential blocks says repairs should happen as soon as reasonably practicable, by a competent person. If a notice carries a date, tell us at the start and we will say straight away whether we can meet it.
Questions we get asked
Can you inspect the doors too?
Not on this site. Inspection is a separate service, and this one is for the repairs that follow it.
We only want the urgent doors done now.
That is fine. The rest stay on your list until they are done.
Send it over with the postcode and we will price it door by door.
