Brambridge Fire Rated Sealant
Fire rated sealant across Brambridge and nearby, with every bit of old sealant taken out first.
- Holes left by a change of layout
- Ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed
- Linear gaps at the head of walls
Should I try it myself first?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Fire rated sealant in Brambridge
Ordinary silicone or decorators’ caulk in a fire-stopping gap is not a fire-rated seal. We cut out the wrong material and reseal with a fire-rated product tested for that kind of gap. Typical jobs include cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant and gaps left after a refit or conversion, on flats & HMOs, linear gaps and door frames.
Work in a small place like Brambridge is planned ahead, journey included, so it can be fitted around guests, clients or events where possible.
Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

The process
We bring everything the job needs with us, so you do not need to buy or prepare anything. Once we’ve 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. For a village or hamlet like Brambridge, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First we work through your list or survey, measuring each gap and checking what it’s formed in.
- Old or unsuitable sealant is cut out and the gap cleaned.
- Backing or fill is fitted where the product’s tested detail calls for it.
- We apply the fire-rated or intumescent sealant to the specified depth and tool it.
- Finally, we list where we worked and what we used, for your records.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Mention any tricky access
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Keeping the joints in good condition
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Check whether a sealant can be painted before decorating over it
- Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks
- Keep the record of products and locations with your fire safety documents
- Keep photos of seals that will be hidden
Leave the sealant to cure fully before painting near it. Not every fire-rated sealant takes paint.
Leave a fire-stopping gap open and smoke can move through the building much more easily. Closing it is generally a straightforward job.
Fire rated sealant around Brambridge
Workplaces and the common parts of blocks of flats in England need a fire risk assessment under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which is often where open fire-stopping gaps are first noticed. We work to the specification you are given, installing the product to its tested details.
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of the Holy Trinity, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building. Managing a site like Colden Common Primary School? Then gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices.

Honest limits

- Fire risk assessments, which need a qualified assessor
- Walls or floors that weren’t built to resist fire

Is Brambridge within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Is Brambridge in your area for fire rated sealant?
Yes, Brambridge is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing.
Will it make a mess?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we tidy up before we go.
Will there be a smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures. Ventilation helps.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes. Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee.
Can you fill the gap behind a fire door frame?
Yes. The joint between frame and wall is sealed with a fire-rated sealant. The door leaf and its hardware need a door specialist.

Do you have insurance?
Yes. We’re fully insured for every job we do.

A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
What we are called out for in Brambridge
Lots of unsealed gaps appear long after the building was completed. New cables, pipes and data runs go through walls and ceilings and the hole they leave does not always get resealed.
People normally contact us after spotting something like this:
- Old fire sealant that has split or come away
- Ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed
- Open gaps behind door architraves
- Linear gaps at the head of walls
Rented homes near Shawford station change hands often, and new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant.

How we quote for fire rated sealant
Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The number of rooms or windows
- Which sealant suits the joint
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
Helping us quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- How we’d reach the joints
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Roughly how big the job is
