Fire door repairs and remedial works for Somerset buildings
Our fire door repairs and remedial works service runs throughout Somerset. Main towns include Bath, Weston-super-Mare and Taunton, and we cover the smaller places in between.
We prioritise the most serious defects in your Somerset building first and return evidence against each action. Send us the inspection report for your Somerset building and we will price the remedial actions line by line.
Managing agents, landlords, schools, care providers, businesses and homeowners in Somerset can all use one team for survey, supply, installation and evidence. We plan work around occupants and hand over a record for every door.
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.
The regulations behind fire doors in Somerset
England's framework applies in Somerset. 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.
For blocks over 11 metres in Somerset, 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.

Questions
Do you provide fire door repairs and remedial works across Somerset?
Yes. We cover all of Somerset, including Bath and Weston-super-Mare. Surveys and written quotes are free.
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.
Do you use original manufacturer parts?
We use components that match the door's certification, which is often the manufacturer's own parts or products listed in its evidence.
