Preventative Glazing Inspections For Commercial Properties
Glazing inspections help you spot and address health and safety risks before they become incidents. They matter most where glass is overhead or at height, as part of a wider building facade maintenance, repair and inspection programme.
Our surveying team assess the glazing system, identify defects, and recommend the safest, most practical next steps. We can include water testing, access planning, and spot repairs in the same visit, so your building maintenance strategy is based on current, clear information.
All inspections are carried out under BS 6262 and the Working at Height Regulations, meeting your legal duties.
We provide comprehensive insurance-backed guarantees and use 100% in-house IRATA Level 3 rope access technicians. No subcontractors are involved, so w
Why A Health And Safety
Glazing Inspection?
A health and safety glazing inspection protects building occupants and the public, and helps satisfy insurance requirements. It creates a documented record of your glazed elements and the risks they pose as part of your facade inspection and safety program.
Where glass is overhead or at height, our technicians carry out a focused inspection to identify defects in high-level or difficult-access glazing before they become hazards. Each inspection includes site-specific access planning and complies with the Working at Height Regulations.
Typical defects we identify during glazing condition surveys include:
What Is Included Within The Glazing Inspection Report?
Our surveying team assess your glazing and façade and create a structured photographic record of every defect found. We collate these findings into a detailed glazing inspection and facade inspection report that sets out the issues, the risks they present, and our recommended remedial works. You get a clear, actionable record for maintenance planning, health and safety obligations, and insurer requirements.
- Defect identification and photographic evidence - every defect, access constraint, and safety concern is captured photographically, so you can see precisely what has been found and where.
- Risk commentary and prioritisation - issues requiring immediate attention are flagged separately, helping you prioritise urgent repairs and demonstrate a proactive approach to health and safety.
- Practical remedial recommendations - we provide a clear list of recommended repairs and maintenance works to return the system to a safe and serviceable standard, with a focus on cost-effective refurbishment.
- Remedial works support from the same team - where required, Sky Access UK can carry out the recommended repairs directly, so you don't need to manage multiple contractors to close out the risks identified in the report.
We inspect a wide range of structures, including curtain wall glazing, roof lights, atrium glazing, and façade glazing across commercial premises throughout the UK.
