We prioritise the most serious defects in your Great Sankey building first and return evidence against each action. Many repairs in Great Sankey can be completed in a single visit once matching components are on site.
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.
As standard, the work covers:
- Re-glazing to the original system
- Hinge, screw and latch repairs
- Line-by-line pricing from your inspection report
- Seal, strip and pad replacement
The regulations behind fire doors in Great Sankey
In Great Sankey, 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 Great Sankey 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.
Where fire door repairs and remedial works fit in Great Sankey
From care homes to offices, the requirement for fire door repairs and remedial works in Great Sankey comes from the fire strategy or risk assessment for the building. We work from that document, or help you interpret your inspection report, before quoting.

Questions
Is Great Sankey within your coverage area?
It is. We cover Great Sankey in Cheshire and neighbouring towns such as Warrington. There is no charge for the survey.
How quickly can you survey in Great Sankey?
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.
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.
