What fire door repairs and remedial works in Devon should include
Our fire door repairs and remedial works service runs throughout Devon. Main towns include Plymouth, Exeter and Paignton, and we cover the smaller places in between.
We prioritise the most serious defects in your Devon building first and return evidence against each action. Send us the inspection report for your Devon building and we will price the remedial actions line by line.
Fire door work in Devon spans housing providers with large estates, individual landlords, businesses and homeowners. We price every job from a survey, never from a list price alone, because the condition of the frames and the hardware makes a real difference.
What cannot be repaired
Doors with major splits, burns, delamination, large unapproved holes, or gaps far beyond what the certification allows usually need replacing. Paint and filler cannot fix a structural problem in a fire door.
Which fire door rules apply in Devon?
The rules that apply to fire doors in Devon are England's. The responsible person under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 must keep fire doors in non-domestic premises and the common parts of flats in working order; the Fire Safety Act 2021 confirmed that this includes flat entrance doors onto common parts.
Where a Devon block is above 11 metres, regulation 10 of the 2022 regulations means communal doors are checked every three months and flat entrance doors annually on a best-endeavours basis. Replacement doors must also satisfy the Building Regulations, with Approved Document B as the guidance most building control bodies work from.

Common questions
Do you provide fire door repairs and remedial works across Devon?
Yes. We cover all of Devon, including Plymouth and Exeter. Surveys and written quotes are free.
Do you use original manufacturer parts?

Many defects can be fixed in one visit once components are on site. We prioritise the most serious safety issues first.
