Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Ashtead
Ordinary silicone or decorators’ caulk in a fire-stopping gap is not a fire-rated seal. Anything unsuitable comes out first and the gap is resealed with a product tested for that use. If you’re dealing with open joints along the top of partitions and holes left by a change of layout, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Washrooms in busy buildings wear their sealant out faster than a bathroom at home, and fire-rated joints need restoring whenever new services are run through a wall. For a building in Ashtead, we plan timings around how it’s used.

Honest limits
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we will tell you before we start. It won’t solve:
- Fire doors that need new seals, closers or hardware
- Openings too large for sealant, which need batts, boards or another system
- Construction that does not provide fire resistance on its own
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will say what we think before booking.

Surface by surface
Door frames
We deal with the gap around the frame, not the door. The door leaf, its seals and closer need a door specialist, and we will say if we spot a problem with them.
Masonry and concrete
Holes through concrete and block are rarely neat. We check the gap size around the service to make sure it suits the product.
Quotes for fire rated sealant in Ashtead
The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- When we can work, for business premises
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- The number of rooms or windows
The cost depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before work begins, so you know where you stand.
What to tell us for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
There’s no standard price list. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To get started, call 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Commercial buildings in Ashtead
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 work to the specification you are given, installing the product to its tested details.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Parsons Mead School, fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in. Community buildings like St George's Church are part of the picture too: older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking.

What else we do in Ashtead
Signs you need fire rated sealant in Ashtead
Movement in the structure can open gaps too: cracked or debonded sealant leaves an open route through the wall. Knocks, maintenance and building work damage it further.
The most common problems we see are:
- Door frames with gaps between frame and wall
- Fire seals that have cracked with movement
- Open holes round services passing through fire walls
- New service routes left unsealed after building work
If you let a flat or house near Ashtead station, fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through.

Should I try it myself first?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
For landlords and businesses
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. Resealing between tenancies keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.
