Fire door repairs and remedial works in Hampton: what's involved
When you book fire door repairs and remedial works in Hampton, the aim is simple: doors that close, latch and seal as tested, with records that prove it.
Around Hampton, mixed-use office buildings, hotels 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.
We prioritise the most serious defects in your Hampton building first and return evidence against each action. Many repairs in Hampton 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.
On a typical job that means:
- Before-and-after photos per door
- Re-glazing to the original system
- Closer replacement and adjustment
- Seal, strip and pad replacement

Common questions
Do you work in Hampton?
Yes, we take on fire door repairs and remedial works in Hampton and the surrounding area, including Hanworth and Sunbury-on-Thames. 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 large gaps around a fire door be fixed?
Sometimes. Small gap problems can often be corrected by adjusting hinges or approved edge repairs. Gaps far beyond the certification usually mean the door or frame must be replaced.
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.
