Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Bracknell
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. If you’re dealing with unsealed gaps around fire door frames and joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey, we can put it right, on linear gaps, plasterboard & masonry and flats & HMOs alike.
For landlords in a large town like Bracknell, sealant work comes in two kinds: resealing bathrooms and kitchens, and fire-rated sealant where pipes pass through walls. A single flat or a whole portfolio can be quoted.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

Common problems we fix in Bracknell
Movement in the structure can open gaps too: a seal that cracks or pulls away leaves a path for smoke. Damage from cleaning, knocks and maintenance adds to it.
The most common problems we see are:
- Gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment
- Old fire sealant that has split or come away
- Door frames with gaps between frame and wall
- Gaps left after a refit or conversion
Schools such as Ranelagh School are buildings too, and fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.

Fire rated sealant around Bracknell
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 work to the specification you’re given, installing the product to its tested details. Bracknell was built as one of England’s post-war new towns. Bracknell was planned with its own industrial and business areas, so workplaces sit close to the homes. Each has washrooms, kitchens and fire-rated joints to keep in order.
For landlords with property near Bracknell station, new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant. Community buildings like Holy Trinity Church are part of the picture too: service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.

Leave it or put it right?
Paying for fire stopping that has to be redone is a false economy. If the details weren’t followed, the seal may need redoing when the building is next checked. In a busy place like Bracknell, a failed joint in a flat or office can send water into the space below, where it can go unnoticed until the damage is done.
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You’ll know the price before we begin.

Bracknell questions
Is there a guarantee on fire rated sealant in Bracknell?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Do you cover Bracknell for fire rated sealant?
Yes, Bracknell is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear price.
Is standard sealant good enough for a fire gap?
No. It might close the gap, but it is not a fire-rated seal. A tested fire-rated product is needed.
Do you provide details of the products used?
Yes. Locations and products are written up when we finish. Tell us if your assessor needs it in a particular format.
Is it messy?
We keep the work tidy. Nearby surfaces are protected, and the area is left clean when we finish.
Do I have to be there?
That depends on where the joints are. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, and for outside work we will agree access with you when we book.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Will there be a smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure. Opening a window helps.
When it isn’t the sealant
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Fire risk assessments, which need a qualified assessor
- Doors that aren’t fire doors in the first place
- Large holes that need a different fire-stopping system
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Door frames
- Flats & HMOs
- Service penetrations
- Linear gaps
- Pipe & cable gaps
- Plasterboard & masonry
Should I try it myself first?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
What we do, step by step
We bring everything the job needs with us, so there’s nothing for you to buy. Once we have agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. In Bracknell, we work in everything from flats and family homes to offices and hotels. Whichever it is, tell us how to get in, where to park and where the work is.
- Before starting, we go through the specification or action list with you.
- Each gap is measured and its substrate and service noted.
- Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out.
- We fit backing where needed and apply the fire-rated sealant to depth.
- Every location is recorded with the product used for your files.
Getting ready for the visit
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Advice
Keeping the joints in good condition
Aftercare is simple:
- Keep pictures of seals that will be hidden
- Do not paint over fire sealant until it has cured
- Report cracked or damaged seals as soon as you notice them
- Include fire stopping when you schedule refits
Include fire stopping in your regular building checks. Watch for cracking, gaps or seals that have been disturbed and have them put right.
Small gaps around services are simple to deal with while there are only a few. Over time, more work adds more holes.
