Workplaces and buildings in Barnham
For seaside hotels, guest houses and holiday lets around Barnham, busy months put washrooms and kitchens under pressure, so it’s worth checking the sealant before the busiest weeks. 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.
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as The Parish Church of St Mary, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Barnham Primary School, fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in. Letting a property close to Barnham station? Then fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through.

We can work through a building room by room or floor by floor, noting the locations and products as we go. That record is useful for your files and for whoever looks at the building next.

Somewhere as small as Barnham, commercial jobs tend to be pubs, holiday lets, farm buildings or halls rather than offices. Each still needs sound sealant in its washrooms and kitchens, and fire-rated joints where services pass through walls.

Why deal with it now?
An unsealed gap lets smoke and fire get round a wall that was built to hold them back. A proper seal lets the wall do its job again, and the sealing itself is often a contained piece of work. Around Barnham, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
What it costs depends on the amount of work, 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.

Questions from Barnham
Can you do fire rated sealant in Barnham?
Yes, Barnham is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing.
Is Barnham within the area you cover?
Yes, Barnham is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can I use normal mastic around a pipe through a fire wall?
No. Ordinary silicone, caulk or foam is not tested as fire stopping. We cut it out and reseal with a fire-rated product.
Do I have to be there?
We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that usually means someone at home.
Can you tell me which gaps need fire stopping?
No. We follow the requirements from your assessor, designer or building control, and apply each product to its tested details.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
We work from Crawley. Our applicators cover Barnham, along with the rest of our area.
Will it make a mess?
We keep the work tidy. Nearby surfaces are protected, and the area is left clean when we finish.
Can you fill the gap behind a fire door frame?
Yes. Gaps behind architraves are a common job for us. The door and its fittings are a separate job for a door specialist.
Different surfaces, different methods
Service penetrations
Service penetrations are where new gaps often appear. We clean out what’s there and reseal to the right depth.
Masonry and concrete
Preparation counts on brick, block and concrete. We brush and vacuum the gap and use backing where the detail needs it.
What affects the cost of fire rated sealant
The price is agreed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- The type of sealant required
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
Combining jobs into one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We will give you a clear price for the lot.
What to tell us for a quote
When you call or email, it’s useful to know:
- Whether it has been sealed before
- A few photos by email, if you can
- The problem you’ve noticed
- The rough size of the job
Want a quote for fire rated sealant? Please ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the job. You’ll know what we plan to do, and what it will cost, before any work begins.
When something else is needed
We’d rather tell you now than do work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:
- Certifying a building or signing off its fire safety
- Fire risk assessments, which need a qualified assessor
- Big openings where sealant alone isn’t the tested solution
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Pipe & cable gaps
- Plasterboard & masonry
- Door frames
- Flats & HMOs
- Service penetrations
- Linear gaps
Can I do it myself?
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.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.

- Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out.
- The specified fire-rated sealant goes in over any backing its detail requires.
- Every location is recorded with the product used.
