Fire rated sealant in Aspley Heath

Commercial buildings in Aspley Heath

In England, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires a fire risk assessment for workplaces and for the common parts of blocks of flats, 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.

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Swallowfield Lower School, service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of Saint Michael, older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking.

Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Aspley Heath

In flats, HMOs, offices and schools, fire stopping is often disturbed by later work. One new cable or pipe can leave a gap that nobody goes back to seal. Those are the gaps we close, using a tested fire-rated product. We’re often asked to deal with damaged fire sealant left by other trades and gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment, across plasterboard & masonry, service penetrations and pipe & cable gaps.

For holiday lets, converted business premises or a community building near Aspley Heath, the washrooms, kitchens and any fire-rated joints need the same care as a big site.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

Leave it or put it right?

Doing it once, properly, beats doing it twice. Work that does not follow the tested detail may have to come out again when the building is next checked. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Aspley Heath, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.

Why book with us

  • Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
  • A 12-month guarantee on all work
  • 4.9 on Google from 180+ five-star reviews
  • Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over

Read what affects the cost and what customers say.

What we do, step by step

Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we don’t rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it normally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. Somewhere as small as Aspley Heath, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. Access to each area is agreed so the work can run in order.
  2. Old, damaged or unsuitable sealant is removed.
  3. Gaps are cleaned of dust and loose material.
  4. We apply and tool the sealant to the product’s tested detail.
  5. Locations and products are written up and any gaps unsuitable for sealant are flagged.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any tricky access
  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
  • Keep children and pets away from the work area

Advice

What we’re called out for in Aspley Heath

Many open fire-stopping gaps are made after the building is finished. New cables, pipes and data runs go through walls and ceilings and the hole they leave does not always get resealed.

If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:

  • Sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list
  • Fire stopping disturbed by later work
  • Fire seals that have cracked with movement
  • Door frames with gaps between frame and wall

For landlords with property near Woburn Sands station, any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.

What to look for in a quote

  • What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
  • How long the guarantee is
  • When the joint can take water or movement
  • How much experience the applicator has

10 questions to ask before you book

Keeping the joints in good condition

Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks
  • Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
  • Take photos of fire stopping before ceilings or boxing go back
  • 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.

Small gaps around services are simple to deal with while there are only a few. Over time, more work adds more holes and the job gets bigger.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we’ll give you a quote.

Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.

Can I do it myself?

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

Questions from Aspley Heath

Do you cover smaller places like Aspley Heath?

Yes. Aspley Heath is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

I let a flat near Woburn Sands station. Can you help?

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.

How long does fire rated sealant take?

As a guide, most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. Bigger jobs take longer, and we’ll tell you how long to expect.

Do you seal gaps around fire door frames?

Yes. The joint between frame and wall is sealed with a fire-rated sealant following the tested details. The door, its seals and closer are for a door specialist.

How do I get a quote for fire rated sealant in Aspley Heath?

We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. You’ll get a clear quote before we start.

Can you work in occupied buildings?

Yes. Flats, HMOs, offices, schools and other occupied buildings are all part of our work. We agree access and the order of work with you first.

Can you seal over the old sealant?

No, it won’t last. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.

Can you give us a record of the work?

Yes. You get a list of where we worked and what we used to keep with your fire safety documents.

How the job changes by surface

Linear gaps

Long, narrow gaps appear where walls meet slabs and ceilings. They’re sealed with a fire-rated sealant over backing where the detail calls for it.

Service penetrations

A copper pipe, a cable and a plastic pipe can all need different fire-stopping details. We follow the manufacturer’s tested detail for each and we flag any that need another system.
