Fire Door Surveys in Exmouth

We provide fire door surveys for buildings in Exmouth and the EX8 postcode district, from single doors to whole blocks and estates.

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.

Questions from Exmouth clients

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.

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.

Which fire safety law applies in Exmouth?

Exmouth 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.

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

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