Fire door repairs and remedial works: our service in Wigan
From the WN1 postcode district outwards, we take on fire door repairs and remedial works across Wigan for homes, blocks and workplaces.
In and around Wigan, fire door work covers everything from schools to offices. We plan each job around the people who use the building.
Many repairs in Wigan can be completed in a single visit once matching components are on site. Send us the inspection report for your Wigan building and we will price the remedial actions line by line.
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
- Line-by-line pricing from your inspection report
- Hinge, screw and latch repairs
- Before-and-after photos per door
Rules and responsibilities in Wigan
The rules that apply to fire doors in Wigan are England's. The responsible person under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 must keep fire doors in non-domestic premises and the common parts of flats in working order; the Fire Safety Act 2021 confirmed that this includes flat entrance doors onto common parts.
Where a Wigan block is above 11 metres, regulation 10 of the 2022 regulations means communal doors are checked every three months and flat entrance doors annually on a best-endeavours basis. Replacement doors must also satisfy the Building Regulations, with Approved Document B as the guidance most building control bodies work from.

Questions
Do you cover WN1 and nearby postcodes?
Yes. We cover Wigan including WN1, and nearby towns such as Hindley and Ashton-in-Makerfield. The survey and written quote are free.
Can you work from an existing inspection report for my Wigan 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 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.
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.
