Getting fire door repairs and remedial works right in Putney
From the SW15 postcode district outwards, we take on fire door repairs and remedial works across Putney for homes, blocks and workplaces.
Fire doors in Putney protect escape routes in hotels, schools and mixed-use office buildings alike. We adapt the programme to the building and its occupants, never the standard of the installation.
Send us the inspection report for your Putney building and we will price the remedial actions line by line. We prioritise the most serious defects in your Putney building first and return evidence against each action.
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:
- Hinge, screw and latch repairs
- Re-glazing to the original system
- Line-by-line pricing from your inspection report
- Closer replacement and adjustment
Rules and responsibilities in Putney
England's framework applies in Putney. Approved Document B guides the fire performance of new and replacement doors under the Building Regulations 2010. Day-to-day duties sit with the responsible person under the Fire Safety Order 2005, and for multi-occupied residential buildings, the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties such as giving residents information about fire doors. In London, the London Fire Brigade is the enforcing authority for fire safety law.
For blocks over 11 metres in Putney, those regulations require communal fire door checks at least every three months and best-endeavours flat entrance door checks each year. In higher-risk buildings, building work is overseen by the Building Safety Regulator, so we check whether approval is needed before starting.

Questions from Putney
Is Putney within your coverage area?
It is. We cover Putney in Greater London and neighbouring towns such as Barnes. There is no charge for the survey.
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.
How quickly can remedials be done?
Many defects can be fixed in one visit once components are on site. We prioritise the most serious safety issues first.
