Fire door repairs in Wallington

Fire door repairs and remedial works: our service in Wallington

From the SM6 postcode district outwards, we take on fire door repairs and remedial works across Wallington for homes, blocks and workplaces.

Buildings in and around Wallington range from mixed-use office buildings to care homes and clinics. 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 Wallington building first and return evidence against each action. Many repairs in Wallington can be completed in a single visit once matching components are on site.

What can be repaired?

Most defects found on inspection are repairable: replacing damaged intumescent strips and smoke seals, re-fixing or replacing hinges and missing screws, replacing or adjusting closers, fixing latches and keeps, fitting intumescent pads behind hinges and locks, re-glazing with the correct system and correcting minor gap issues where the manufacturer's guidance allows. Some repairs, such as hardwood edge repairs, must follow the manufacturer's method to stay within the evidence.

What you get:

• Line-by-line pricing from your inspection report
• Hinge, screw and latch repairs
• Seal, strip and pad replacement
• Closer replacement and adjustment

Rules and responsibilities in Wallington

England's framework applies in Wallington. 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 Wallington, 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.
