Fire door repairs and remedial works for Cheshunt buildings
Our fire door repairs and remedial works service in Cheshunt is simple: a survey, a fixed quote, certified products and an installation finished to the manufacturer's evidence.
Around Cheshunt, care homes, houses with integral garages and light industrial buildings all depend on fire doors that close, latch and seal. We survey each opening and tell you plainly which doors need work and which don't.
We prioritise the most serious defects in your Cheshunt building first and return evidence against each action. Many repairs in Cheshunt can be completed in a single visit once matching components are on site.
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.
On a typical job that means:
- Hinge, screw and latch repairs
- Re-glazing to the original system
- Before-and-after photos per door
- Closer replacement and adjustment
Fire door law for Cheshunt properties
In Cheshunt, as elsewhere in England, the starting point is the Fire Safety Order 2005: whoever controls a workplace or the shared parts of a residential block must make sure its fire doors work. When doors are replaced, the Building Regulations and Approved Document B set the standard the new work has to meet.
Blocks above 11 metres have a specific routine under regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022: quarterly checks of communal fire doors and annual best-endeavours checks of flat front doors. If your Cheshunt building is a higher-risk building under the Building Safety Act 2022, we confirm the approval route with the Principal Accountable Person before any work is ordered.

Questions
Is Cheshunt within your coverage area?
It is. We cover Cheshunt in Hertfordshire and neighbouring towns such as Waltham Abbey. There is no charge for the survey.
What happens on a survey in Cheshunt?
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.
Can I paint over intumescent strips?
Painting over smoke seals stops them working, and heavy paint can affect intumescent strips. Damaged or painted seals should be replaced with the specified type.
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.
