Thatcham FAQs

Can you price remedial work in Thatcham from another company's report?

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

Do you measure for new doors during the survey?

Where a door is likely to need replacing we record the leaf and opening sizes, so a replacement quotation can follow without a second visit in most cases.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Thatcham?

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

What is the difference between a fire door inspection and a survey?

An inspection records whether each door passes or fails. A survey goes further: it grades each defect, recommends repair, upgrade or replacement, and costs the work so you can budget.
