How we handle fire rated sealant in Bewbush
Fire stopping only performs as intended if it’s done to the detail: correct depth, correct backing and a product suited to the surfaces. That detail is what we take care over, gap by gap. We work on door frames, flats & HMOs and pipe & cable gaps, and people most often call us about gaps filled with a product that isn’t fire-rated and fire stopping disturbed by later work.
If you run a pub, café, guest house or shop in or near Bewbush, the washrooms and kitchen need the same attention as a big site.
Our work is backed for twelve months, in Bewbush and everywhere else we cover.

When to call us in Bewbush
Sometimes the wrong product was used from the start: general-purpose foam, everyday silicone or caulk in a place that needed a tested fire seal. It looks sealed, but it is not fire-rated.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs
- Damaged fire sealant left by other trades
- Door frames with gaps between frame and wall
- Gaps filled with a product that isn’t fire-rated
If you let a flat or house near Ifield station, new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant.

Fire rated sealant around Bewbush
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. Bewbush is part of Crawley, one of the post-war new towns. Like the other new towns, Crawley was planned with its own areas for industry and business, so workplaces sit close to the homes. Each has washrooms, kitchens and fire-rated joints to keep in order.
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St Alban's, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building. If you look after a building such as The Bewbush Academy, service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.
Bewbush is about 1 mile west of Crawley, in West Sussex. Whether you are in the middle of Bewbush or further out, we cover fire rated sealant for every kind of property, from flats and houses to offices and hotels. Our West Sussex coverage runs to 371 places, Bewbush among them.

Bewbush: your questions answered
Will you come out to Bewbush?
Yes. Bewbush is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Ifield station?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders, and several properties can be quoted together. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status and we are fully insured too.
Will it make a mess?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Are you insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work.
Do I need to be at home?
It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, and for outside work we’ll agree access with you when we book.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned.
Can you tell me how many minutes the seal will last?
Ratings and certification sit with the product’s test evidence and whoever specified the work. We apply the specified product to the manufacturer’s details and list the locations and products for you.
How to look after the new joints
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Tell trades working in the building that fire seals must be put back
- Report cracked or damaged seals as soon as you notice them
- Keep general-purpose foam and caulk away from fire-stopping gaps
- Check whether a sealant can be painted before decorating over it
File the record of locations and products with your fire safety paperwork. It helps whoever checks the building next.
Any job that breaks through a wall or ceiling should include resealing. Doing it at the time avoids leaving gaps behind.
What we do, step by step
We bring everything the job needs with us, so you do not need to buy or prepare anything. Once we have agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. A visit to Bewbush is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.
- We plan the order of work and access, floor by floor or flat by flat.
- We take out any damaged or unsuitable sealant.
- Dust and loose debris are cleaned from each gap.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Advice
What we can’t put right
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Walls or floors that weren’t built to resist fire
- Fire risk assessments, which need a qualified assessor
- Large holes that need a different fire-stopping system
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think.
Where we work in Bewbush
- Linear gaps
- Plasterboard & masonry
- Pipe & cable gaps
- Service penetrations
- Flats & HMOs
- Door frames
Different surfaces, different methods
Linear gaps
Long, narrow gaps appear where walls meet slabs and ceilings. We seal them to the tested detail, with backing where it’s needed.
Plasterboard walls
Many fire-resisting walls in flats, offices and conversions are plasterboard. The sealant has to be one tested in plasterboard for the gap we’re sealing.
