Common questions in Newcastle upon Tyne

Can you price remedial work from someone else's inspection report?

Yes. Send the report and we will price each line. If the report lacks the detail needed, such as gap readings or photos, we will say which doors need a quick revisit before we can price them.

Do you cover the area around Newcastle upon Tyne?

Yes. As well as Newcastle upon Tyne itself we cover nearby towns including Gateshead, Gosforth and Felling.

Will the door still be a certified fire door after repair?

The aim of remedial work is to restore the door's original performance using compatible components and methods. Where a repair would go outside what the door's evidence supports, we will recommend replacement instead.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Newcastle upon Tyne?

Yes, if the building is a multi-occupied residential building with storeys over 11 metres. Newcastle upon Tyne is in England, so the quarterly communal door checks and annual flat entrance door checks apply to those buildings.
