Fire Door Surveys in Cornwall
Fire Door Surveys throughout Cornwall: from Redruth to Falmouth, every door is inspected, photographed and logged, and remedial work is priced door by door.
Fire Door Surveys: A fire door survey is a more detailed version of an inspection, used when you need to plan and budget: it grades every defect by urgency, decides whether each door should be repaired, upgraded or replaced, and turns the findings into a costed schedule of works.

Fire Door Surveys in Cornwall: questions
Can the survey support a section 20 consultation?
Yes. The costed schedule gives a clear description of the proposed works and their budget, which you can use when consulting leaseholders. Formal consultation remains the landlord's responsibility.
Can you survey a whole portfolio?
Yes. Multi-site surveys are scheduled building by building and delivered as one register so you can compare buildings.
Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Cornwall?
Yes, if the building is a multi-occupied residential building with storeys over 11 metres. Cornwall is in England, so the quarterly communal door checks and annual flat entrance door checks apply to those buildings.
Do you cover the area around Cornwall?
Yes. As well as Cornwall itself we cover nearby towns including Redruth, Falmouth and St Austell.
