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.
On a typical job that means:
- Before-and-after photos per door
- Closer replacement and adjustment
- Hinge, screw and latch repairs
- Seal, strip and pad replacement

Questions from Caerphilly
Do you work in Caerphilly?
Yes, we take on fire door repairs and remedial works in Caerphilly and the surrounding area, including Risca and Pontypridd. Send your postcode and a few details and we'll come back with survey dates.
What happens on a survey in Caerphilly?
We look at every door in scope: the leaf, frame, gaps, seals, hinges, closer, glazing and how the frame is fixed. You then get a written quote that prices each door separately.
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.
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.
