Fire door repairs and remedial works: our service in Newport (Gwent)
For property owners, landlords and managing agents in Newport (Gwent), we offer fire door repairs and remedial works with one team for the survey, the product and the installation.
Fire doors in Newport (Gwent) protect escape routes in converted period houses, schools and offices alike. We adapt the programme to the building and its occupants, never the standard of the installation.
Send us the inspection report for your Newport (Gwent) building and we will price the remedial actions line by line. We prioritise the most serious defects in your Newport (Gwent) building first and return evidence against each action.
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:
- Hinge, screw and latch repairs
- Closer replacement and adjustment
- Line-by-line pricing from your inspection report
- Before-and-after photos per door
What the rules say for Newport (Gwent)
Newport (Gwent) is in Wales, where new and replacement fire doors are covered by the Building Regulations 2010 as applied in Wales, with the Welsh Approved Document B as guidance. The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 also applies, so responsible persons in workplaces and the common parts of blocks must keep fire doors maintained.
One difference from England: regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022, with its quarterly and annual fire door checks, does not apply in Wales. Your fire risk assessment sets the checking regime instead, and we work to it.

Questions from Newport (Gwent)
Is Newport (Gwent) within your coverage area?
It is. We cover Newport (Gwent) in Gwent and neighbouring towns such as Risca. There is no charge for the survey.
Can you work from an existing inspection report for my Newport (Gwent) 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.
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.
