What fire door repairs and remedial works in Crewe should include
Our fire door repairs and remedial works service covers Crewe and the wider Cheshire area. Every job starts with a survey of the openings, so the quote reflects your actual doors rather than a guess.
Around Crewe, houses with integral garages, family homes after loft conversions 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.
Many repairs in Crewe can be completed in a single visit once matching components are on site. Send us the inspection report for your Crewe building and we will price the remedial actions line by line.
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.
On a typical job that means:
- Closer replacement and adjustment
- Before-and-after photos per door
- Re-glazing to the original system
- Line-by-line pricing from your inspection report
Fire door law for Crewe properties
England's framework applies in Crewe. 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 Crewe, 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.

The need for fire door repairs and remedial works usually arises in HMOs or schools, and sometimes blocks of flats. Each has its own pressures, such as residents at home or a building that must stay open, so we plan the sequence of work in Crewe to keep escape routes protected throughout.

Common questions
Do you work in Crewe?
Yes, we take on fire door repairs and remedial works in Crewe and the surrounding area, including Winsford and Kidsgrove. Send your postcode and a few details and we'll come back with survey dates.
Do I need to be there for the survey?
Someone needs to give us access to the doors. For blocks and commercial buildings, a caretaker or site contact is fine; for HMOs and homes, we agree a time with you or your tenants.
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.
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.
