Fire door repairs and remedial works: our service in Yate
Looking for fire door repairs and remedial works in Yate? We supply and fit certified fire doors and components across Yate and the wider Gloucestershire area, working from a free survey and a fixed written quote.
Buildings in and around Yate range from small blocks of flats to family homes after loft conversions and small offices. Whatever the building, the standard is the same: certified products, correct gaps, seals and closers, and a frame sealed to the wall.
We prioritise the most serious defects in your Yate building first and return evidence against each action. Many repairs in Yate 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.
Each installation includes:
- Hinge, screw and latch repairs
- Closer replacement and adjustment
- Before-and-after photos per door
- Seal, strip and pad replacement
The regulations behind fire doors in Yate
Fire doors in Yate fall under English rules. New and replacement doors are covered by the Building Regulations 2010 and Approved Document B. In workplaces and the common parts of blocks, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, as clarified by the Fire Safety Act 2021, puts the duty on the responsible person to keep fire doors suitable and maintained.
For residential buildings in Yate above 11 metres, regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 adds checks: communal fire doors at least every three months and best-endeavours checks of flat entrance doors at least every twelve months. Higher-risk buildings of at least 18 metres or seven storeys also come under the Building Safety Act 2022, where works may need approval from the Building Safety Regulator.
Where fire door repairs and remedial works fit in Yate
From schools to blocks of flats, the requirement for fire door repairs and remedial works in Yate 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.

Common questions
Do you work in Yate?
Yes, we take on fire door repairs and remedial works in Yate and the surrounding area, including Mangotsfield and Kingswood. 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.
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.
