About our fire rated sealant in Atherfield Green
Where services or frames pass through a fire-resisting wall or floor, the gap around them needs a fire-rated seal. We apply intumescent and fire-rated sealants to the manufacturer’s tested details for each gap, with a record of the products and locations if you need one. We work on plasterboard & masonry, door frames and flats & HMOs, and the jobs we see most are cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant and gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment.
For a small place like Atherfield Green, the journey and timings are agreed in advance, so the job can fit around bookings, guests or opening times where possible.
Our work is backed for twelve months, in Atherfield Green and everywhere else we cover.

Leave it or put it right?
Sealant isn’t the fix for every opening. Large holes, cable bundles and plastic pipes can call for batts, collars or wraps. If a gap is not suitable for sealant, we’ll tell you. Around Atherfield Green, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Combining jobs into one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits. We’ll send you a clear quote for the lot.

Questions from Atherfield Green
Can you do fire rated sealant in Atherfield Green?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Atherfield Green is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Will you come out to Atherfield Green?
Yes, Atherfield Green is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can I use normal mastic around a pipe through a fire wall?
No. It looks sealed but won’t perform as fire stopping. Use a product tested for that gap and service.
Do I need to be at home?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. Indoors, that generally means someone at home.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
What fire rating will the seal have?
That isn’t something we state or certify. Your specification sets the requirement, and we fit a product whose tested details meet it with a record of each location.
Are you insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured.
Is it messy?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Fire rated sealant in Atherfield Green: local notes
If you run a hotel, guest house or holiday let in a coastal place like Atherfield Green, busy months put washrooms and kitchens under pressure, so it’s worth checking the sealant before the busiest weeks. 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 apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details.
Whether the job is in Atherfield Green itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish.

Different surfaces, different methods
Plasterboard walls
Holes in plasterboard are often cut roughly for services. Where a hole is bigger than the sealant’s tested range, it needs another approach, and we will tell you.
Linear gaps
Some linear gaps have to cope with movement as well as fire. The product and depth are chosen to suit both, following the tested detail.

Related advice
DIY versus a professional finish
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, 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.
Do you need fire rated sealant in Atherfield Green?
If the sealant is too shallow, has the wrong backing or sits on a dusty surface, it isn’t installed as tested. We see plenty of fire stopping that was hurried, especially where it was squeezed in at the end of a project.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
- Gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls
- New service routes left unsealed after building work
- Joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey
Around Atherfield Green, as everywhere, fire rated sealant is only as good as the preparation behind it.
