Questions from Pitsea clients

How long does a replacement take?

Most single doorsets are replaced within a day, including making good. Doors are never left unable to close at the end of a working day.

Do you work in occupied buildings in Pitsea?

Yes. Inspections and repairs in Pitsea can be carried out in occupied flats, schools, care homes and workplaces, with doors kept closable at all times.

When should a fire door be replaced rather than repaired?

When the leaf or frame is too damaged to repair within what its test evidence allows, when there is no evidence it is a fire door, or when the repair would cost more than a new doorset.

Which fire safety law applies in Pitsea?

Pitsea 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.
