Fire door repairs and remedial works: our service in Tynemouth
We provide fire door repairs and remedial works in Tynemouth (NE30 and the surrounding postcodes), from the first survey through to a documented handover.
In and around Tynemouth, fire door work covers everything from houses with integral garages to schools. We plan each job around the people who use the building.
Send us the inspection report for your Tynemouth building and we will price the remedial actions line by line. We prioritise the most serious defects in your Tynemouth building first and return evidence against each action.
What cannot be repaired
Doors with major splits, burns, delamination, large unapproved holes, or gaps far beyond what the certification allows usually need replacing. Paint and filler cannot fix a structural problem in a fire door.
What you get:
- Re-glazing to the original system
- Seal, strip and pad replacement
- Line-by-line pricing from your inspection report
- Before-and-after photos per door

Questions from Tynemouth
Is Tynemouth within your coverage area?
It is. We cover Tynemouth in Tyne and Wear and neighbouring towns such as North Shields. There is no charge for the survey.
Can you work from an existing inspection report for my Tynemouth 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.
