Getting fire door repairs and remedial works right in Windsor
Our fire door repairs and remedial works service covers Windsor and the wider Berkshire area. Every job starts with a survey of the openings, so the quote reflects your actual doors rather than a guess.
Around Windsor, light industrial buildings, small blocks of flats and care homes all depend on fire doors that close, latch and seal. We survey each opening and tell you plainly which doors need work and which don't.
Send us the inspection report for your Windsor building and we will price the remedial actions line by line. We prioritise the most serious defects in your Windsor building first and return evidence against each action.
What can be repaired?
Most defects found on inspection are repairable: replacing damaged intumescent strips and smoke seals, re-fixing or replacing hinges and missing screws, replacing or adjusting closers, fixing latches and keeps, fitting intumescent pads behind hinges and locks, re-glazing with the correct system and correcting minor gap issues where the manufacturer's guidance allows. Some repairs, such as hardwood edge repairs, must follow the manufacturer's method to stay within the evidence.
Each installation includes:
- Line-by-line pricing from your inspection report
- Seal, strip and pad replacement
- Before-and-after photos per door
- Hinge, screw and latch repairs
The regulations behind fire doors in Windsor
In Windsor, as elsewhere in England, the starting point is the Fire Safety Order 2005: whoever controls a workplace or the shared parts of a residential block must make sure its fire doors work. When doors are replaced, the Building Regulations and Approved Document B set the standard the new work has to meet.
Blocks above 11 metres have a specific routine under regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022: quarterly checks of communal fire doors and annual best-endeavours checks of flat front doors. If your Windsor building is a higher-risk building under the Building Safety Act 2022, we confirm the approval route with the Principal Accountable Person before any work is ordered.

Questions
Is Windsor within your coverage area?
It is. We cover Windsor in Berkshire and neighbouring towns such as Slough. There is no charge for the survey.
How quickly can you survey in Windsor?
It depends on the number of doors and access, but we offer survey dates as soon as we reply to your enquiry. If an inspection has found urgent safety issues, tell us and we'll prioritise.
How quickly can remedials be done?
Many defects can be fixed in one visit once components are on site. We prioritise the most serious safety issues first.
Can I paint over intumescent strips?
Painting over smoke seals stops them working, and heavy paint can affect intumescent strips. Damaged or painted seals should be replaced with the specified type.
