Witham FAQs

Do you cover the area around Witham?

Yes. As well as Witham itself we cover nearby towns including Maldon, Braintree and Chelmsford.

Can you repair a fire door from photos?

We can usually diagnose and price common faults from clear photos of the whole door, the edges and the hardware. Some faults, such as a warped leaf, need a site visit to measure.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Witham?

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

Can you fill a large gap with extra intumescent strip?

Not as a general fix. Gaps outside tolerance are usually corrected by re-hanging, lipping or adjusting the frame, because oversized intumescent strips are not a substitute for a door that fits.
