Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Baker's Wood
Until it’s heated, intumescent sealant behaves like an ordinary sealant; then it swells to help close the gap. Which product suits a gap depends on its width, the materials either side and what runs through it. If you are dealing with open holes round services passing through fire walls and new service routes left unsealed after building work, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
If you have holiday lets, a converted barn used for business or a community building near Baker's Wood, washroom and kitchen sealant and any fire-rated joints need the same attention as anywhere.
All our work comes with a 12-month guarantee.

Your questions about fire rated sealant in Baker's Wood
Do you cover smaller places like Baker's Wood?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
I let a flat near Denham Golf Club station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Can I use normal mastic around a pipe through a fire wall?
No. A gap that needs fire stopping needs a tested fire-rated product.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Only a few details: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. Then call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Can you match the sealant colour?
We help you choose a colour that suits. The product needed can limit the range.
Do you seal gaps around fire door frames?
Yes. We seal the gap between the frame and the wall with a suitable fire-rated product. The door, its seals and closer are for a door specialist.
Can I do it myself?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.
Will you assess my building’s fire safety?
No, assessment is not something we do. When your assessor or designer has set out what’s needed, we will quote for the sealant work on it.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
DIY versus a professional finish
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Common problems we fix in Baker's Wood
Gaps also open up as buildings move: a seal that cracks or pulls away leaves a path for smoke. Damage from cleaning, knocks and maintenance adds to it.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Holes left by a change of layout
- Unsealed gaps around fire door frames
- Gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs
- Unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall
If you look after a building such as Denham Village School, service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.
Questions to ask before booking
- How hidden problems are handled
- What preparation is included
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- How long the guarantee is
Different surfaces, different methods
Linear gaps
Gaps along the top of partitions are easy to miss above a ceiling. We seal them along their full length leaving no stretch unsealed.
Flats and HMOs
Flats and HMOs rely on fire separation between homes and the common parts. We work through the gaps on your assessment.
Looking after it afterwards
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Keep general-purpose foam and caulk away from fire-stopping gaps
- Plan fire stopping into any work that goes through walls or floors
- File the fire-stopping record where your assessor can find it
- Tell trades working in the building that fire seals must be put back
Leave the sealant to cure fully before painting near it. Some fire-rated sealants can be painted and some cannot and we will tell you which one you have.
A gap left open in a fire-resisting wall or floor lets smoke spread in ways the building wasn’t designed for. Sealing it early is a simple step to take.
What happens on the day
We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access and we leave things clean and tidy. For a village or hamlet like Baker's Wood, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- Access to each area is agreed so the work can run in order.
- Old, damaged or unsuitable sealant is removed.
- Gaps are cleaned of dust and loose material.
- We apply and tool the sealant to the product’s tested detail.
- Locations and products are written up and any gaps unsuitable for sealant are flagged.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
