Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Ashford
Fire-rated sealant closes the gaps around pipes, cables and frames where they pass through a fire-resisting wall or floor. We apply intumescent and fire-rated sealants to the manufacturer’s tested details for each gap, and we can record what went where. We work on service penetrations, door frames and pipe & cable gaps, and people most often call us about damaged fire sealant left by other trades and door frames with gaps between frame and wall.
If you have holiday lets, a converted barn used for business or a community building near Ashford, washroom and kitchen sealant and any fire-rated joints need the same attention as anywhere.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What we are called out for in Ashford
If the sealant is too shallow, has the wrong backing or sits on a dusty surface, it isn’t installed as tested. Rushed fire stopping is common, especially where it was squeezed in at the end of a project.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Open gaps behind door architraves
- Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
- Sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list
- Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
If you look after a building such as Fordingbridge Junior School, service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.

What we cannot put right
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant won’t put right:
- Doors that are not fire doors in the first place
- Certifying a building or signing off its fire safety
- Fire risk assessments, which need a qualified assessor
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we seal
- Plasterboard & masonry
- Linear gaps
- Pipe & cable gaps
- Flats & HMOs
- Door frames
- Service penetrations
How to look after the new joints
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Keep photos of seals that will be hidden
- Check whether a sealant can be painted before decorating over it
- Look in service cupboards and ceiling voids from time to time
- Get damaged fire seals looked at promptly
File the record of locations and products with your fire safety paperwork. It helps whoever checks the building next.
Open gaps do not only matter in a fire: they also let noise, draughts and sometimes pests through. Sealing them early helps on every front.
Questions from Ashford
Will you come out to Ashford?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you cover Ashford for fire rated sealant?
Yes, Ashford is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing.
What do you put in the joint?

No. We follow the requirements from your assessor, designer or building control and install to the manufacturer’s details.
How do I get a quote for fire rated sealant in Ashford?
We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. You’ll get a clear quote before work begins.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before resealing.
Do I have to be there?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you don’t need to watch us work.
Why act early in Ashford
Leaving a gap until a refurbishment comes round can mean years with it open. Sealing the gap now is a contained job on its own. In a small place like Ashford, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.

What fire rated sealant looks like in Ashford
Workplaces and the common parts of blocks of flats in England need a fire risk assessment under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which is often where open fire-stopping gaps are first noticed. We apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details.
In and around Ashford, as anywhere, good fire rated sealant starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

What we do, step by step
Good joint work is mostly preparation, and we don’t rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. Somewhere like Ashford needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First we work through your list or survey, measuring each gap and checking what it’s formed in.
- We remove any old or unsuitable filler and clean the gap.
- Backing or fill is fitted where the product’s tested detail calls for it.
- Fire-rated or intumescent sealant is applied to the right depth and tooled.
- We record the locations and products used for your records.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any tricky access
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
