Fire rated sealant in Ashley
Fire stopping only performs as intended if it’s done to the detail: the right depth, the right backing and the right product for the substrate. That is the part we focus on. If you’re dealing with linear gaps at the head of walls and fire seals that have cracked with movement, we can put it right.
For holiday lets, converted business premises or a community building near Ashley, washroom and kitchen sealant and any fire-rated joints need the same attention as anywhere.
All our work comes with our 12-month guarantee.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Aftercare is simple:
- Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks
- Never patch a fire seal with standard sealant
- Photograph sealed gaps before they’re covered up
- Ask every contractor to reseal any fire stopping they disturb
Keep the record we give you with the building’s fire safety documents. It saves time at the next inspection or assessment.
An open gap is not only a fire issue: they also let noise, draughts and sometimes pests through. Dealing with them early helps with all of these.

What else we do in Ashley
What fire rated sealant looks like in Ashley
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 East Studdal Church Hall, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.

The process
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access, and the area is left clean. For a village or hamlet like Ashley, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- First we work through your list or survey, measuring each gap and checking what it’s formed in.
- Anything that is not fit for the job comes out, and the gap is 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.
- Locations and products are noted so you have them on file.
How to prepare
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- Doors that aren’t fire doors in the first place
- Fire risk assessments, which need a qualified assessor
- Certifying a building or signing off its fire safety

What the job involves on each surface
Flats and HMOs
In flats and HMOs, the walls and floors between homes and common areas need sealing where services pass through. We work through the gaps on your assessment room by room.
Linear gaps
Some linear gaps have to cope with movement as well as fire. We choose a product and depth that suit the gap and the movement from the manufacturer’s details.
Do you need fire rated sealant in Ashley?
Gaps also open up as buildings move: cracked or debonded sealant leaves an open route through the wall. Damage from cleaning, knocks and maintenance adds to it.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list
- Unsealed gaps around fire door frames
- Open joints along the top of partitions
- Cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant
If you let a flat or house near Martin Mill station, fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through.
