Fire door repairs and remedial works for Peckham buildings
For property owners, landlords and managing agents in Peckham, we offer fire door repairs and remedial works with one team for the survey, the product and the installation.
In and around Peckham, fire door work covers everything from mixed-use office buildings to restaurants. We plan each job around the people who use the building.
Send us the inspection report for your Peckham building and we will price the remedial actions line by line. We prioritise the most serious defects in your Peckham building first and return evidence against each action.
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.
What you get:
- Closer replacement and adjustment
- Hinge, screw and latch repairs
- Before-and-after photos per door
- Line-by-line pricing from your inspection report
The regulations behind fire doors in Peckham
In Peckham, 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. Enforcement of fire safety law in Peckham sits with the London Fire Brigade.
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 Peckham 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.

Questions
Is Peckham within your coverage area?
It is. We cover Peckham in Greater London and neighbouring towns such as Brixton. There is no charge for the survey.
Can you work from an existing inspection report for my Peckham building?
Yes. Send it over and we can often price straight from it, then confirm on site. We report back against the same door references so you can close actions off.
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.
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.
