Fire door repairs and remedial works: our service in Bristol
Our fire door repairs and remedial works service covers all of Bristol, across postcode districts including BS1, BS99 and BS8.
Many repairs in Bristol can be completed in a single visit once matching components are on site. We prioritise the most serious defects in your Bristol building first and return evidence against each action.
Managing agents, landlords, schools, care providers, businesses and homeowners in Bristol can all use one team for survey, supply, installation and evidence. We plan work around occupants and hand over a record for every door.
Working from your inspection report
Send us your inspection report or fire risk assessment actions. We price each defect line by line, carry out the work, and return a record of what was done to each door, with before and after photographs, so you can close the actions off.
What the rules say for Bristol
England's framework applies in Bristol. Approved Document B guides the fire performance of new and replacement doors under the Building Regulations 2010. Day-to-day duties sit with the responsible person under the Fire Safety Order 2005, and for multi-occupied residential buildings, the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties such as giving residents information about fire doors.
For blocks over 11 metres in Bristol, those regulations require communal fire door checks at least every three months and best-endeavours flat entrance door checks each year. In higher-risk buildings, building work is overseen by the Building Safety Regulator, so we check whether approval is needed before starting.

Questions
Do you provide fire door repairs and remedial works across Bristol?
Yes. We cover all of Bristol. Surveys and written quotes are free.
Do you use original manufacturer parts?
We use components that match the door's certification, which is often the manufacturer's own parts or products listed in its evidence.
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.
