How we quote for fire rated sealant
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- Access and height
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- The size of the job
- The number of rooms or windows
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.

About our fire rated sealant in Ashburnham
A gap around a door frame, a linear joint at the head of a wall and a hole round a pipe are each sealed differently. Measuring the gap and checking what it’s made of comes first, then the sealant goes in to the depth the product’s details set. We work on door frames, linear gaps and plasterboard & masonry, and the jobs we see most are ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed and cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant.
In a village or hamlet like Ashburnham, commercial work is more likely to be a pub, a farm shop, holiday lets or a village hall than an office block. Each still needs sound sealant in its washrooms and kitchens, and fire-rated joints where services pass through walls.
Our work is backed for twelve months.

How to look after the new joints
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
- Get damaged fire seals looked at promptly
- Store the list of sealed gaps with your building paperwork
- Do not paint over fire sealant until it has cured
Leave the sealant to cure fully before painting near it. Some fire-rated sealants can be painted and some cannot and we’ll tell you which one you have.
A flagged gap shouldn’t wait for the next assessment. Get it sealed and recorded so the item can be closed.
Common questions in Ashburnham
Is Ashburnham within the area you cover?
Yes, Ashburnham is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
I let a flat near Battle station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before we start.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before resealing.
Which products do you use?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference.
Can you work in occupied buildings?
Yes, whether the building is a school, an office, flats or an HMO, and whether it’s in use or not. Tell us how the building is used and we will plan around it.
What information do you need?
Only a few details: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. After that, simply ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured.
Fire rated sealant in Ashburnham: local notes
Workplaces and the common parts of blocks of flats in England need a fire risk assessment under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, and gaps around services are often picked up there. We work to the specification you are given, installing the product to its tested details.
For buildings such as Parish Church of St Peter, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.

Can I do it myself?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
How the visit works
We bring everything the job needs with us. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. It normally takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. Somewhere like Ashburnham needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We start with the survey or action list, checking the size and surfaces of every gap.
- Old or unsuitable sealant is cut out and the gap cleaned.
- We put in whatever backing or fill the product detail specifies.
- Fire-rated or intumescent sealant is applied to the right depth and tooled.
- We record the locations and products used for your records.
Before we arrive
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Do you need fire rated sealant in Ashburnham?
Buildings are refitted and reconfigured over the years. A house turned into flats or an HMO, or an office split into smaller units, brings new walls, new service routes and new gaps.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Damaged fire sealant left by other trades
- Open joints along the top of partitions
- Fire seals that have cracked with movement
- New service routes left unsealed after building work
Rented homes near Battle station change hands often, and new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant.
Before you book anyone
- How long the guarantee is
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- Is VAT in the price?
What sealant work can’t fix
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Construction that does not provide fire resistance on its own
- Deciding what fire stopping a building needs
- Doors that are not fire doors in the first place
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Service penetrations
- Flats & HMOs
- Linear gaps
- Plasterboard & masonry
- Door frames
- Pipe & cable gaps
For landlords and businesses
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
