Questions from Walton-on-Thames clients

Do you need to remove the doors?

No. Inspections are non-intrusive. The inspector measures, operates and photographs each door in place and only lifts away removable items such as letter-plate covers where it is safe to do so.

Can you price remedial work in Walton-on-Thames from another company's report?

Yes. Send the report and we will price each line for your building in Walton-on-Thames, or revisit specific doors if the report lacks detail.

Which fire safety law applies in Walton-on-Thames?

Walton-on-Thames is in England, so the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies, together with the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 for multi-occupied residential buildings.

Will the inspection tell me whether a door is a genuine fire door?

It records the evidence available: labels, plugs, glazing marks, hardware markings and construction. Where there is no evidence of a fire rating, the report says so, so the fire risk assessor can decide what to do.
