Fire door repairs and remedial works for Clevedon buildings
If you need fire door repairs and remedial works in Clevedon, we can survey, supply and install, then leave you the evidence your fire risk assessor will ask for.
In and around Clevedon, fire door work covers everything from houses with integral garages to light industrial buildings. We plan each job around the people who use the building.
We prioritise the most serious defects in your Clevedon building first and return evidence against each action. Many repairs in Clevedon can be completed in a single visit once matching components are on site.
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:
- Seal, strip and pad replacement
- Closer replacement and adjustment
- Before-and-after photos per door

What the rules say for Clevedon
In Clevedon, 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 Clevedon 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.

From schools to blocks of flats, the requirement for fire door repairs and remedial works in Clevedon comes from the fire strategy or risk assessment for the building. We work from that document, or help you interpret your inspection report, before quoting.

How quickly can you survey in Clevedon?
It depends on the number of doors and access, but we offer survey dates as soon as we reply to your enquiry. If an inspection has found urgent safety issues, tell us and we'll prioritise.
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.
