Questions

Working in Caterham.

What fire door work do you do in Caterham?

Across Caterham (CR3) it is mostly fire doors in the Valley's flats and offices, doorsets for converted houses on the hill and inspection work for local managing agents, along with the fire-rated glazing, ironmongery upgrades and remedial works that go with all of it. Caterham mixes flats above the town centre shops with offices, HMO conversions and newer residential blocks, so the fire door work runs from single flat entrance doors to whole-building inspection and remedial programmes for managing agents. Every job starts with a survey of the actual doors rather than a price guessed over the phone.

Do you charge extra to come out to Caterham?

No. Caterham is about 6 miles from the Croydon base, well inside the daily patch, so travel is in the price and a survey visit is normally a couple of days away.

Have you worked in Caterham before?

Yes. Caterham splits between the Valley's flats and offices and the Village's older housing, and we work in both. Give us a ring and we will tell you what we normally find in buildings around Caterham Valley and what yours is likely to need before anything is opened up.

Does the type of building in Caterham change the job?

It does. Caterham runs from flats above shops through offices and HMO conversions to newer blocks, and each brings its own version of the job. Flats over commercial premises lean hard on the separation between the two uses, so the doors and the ceiling compartmentation both matter. Offices need doors that hold their rating through years of trolley traffic. Conversions need certificated doorsets where the originals carry no evidence. The common thread is that everything gets surveyed before it gets priced, because in a mixed town centre no two buildings are the same.

Can you survey the doors in Caterham and then do the remedial work too?

Yes, and it is how most clients in Caterham run it: one firm surveys the doors, prices the findings, carries out the remedials and hands back a completion report photographed door by door. Nothing gets lost between a surveyor's spreadsheet and a contractor's quote, and the responsible person ends up with one consistent set of records for the building's fire safety file.

How soon could you get to a job in Caterham?

Caterham is around 6 miles from the Croydon base, so getting out to survey and quote is quick, usually within a few days. Start dates for installation and remedial programmes depend on the diary, and we would rather give you a real date than a hopeful one. Ring and we will tell you where the next honest slot is.
