DIY versus a professional finish
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
About our fire rated sealant in Bray
We often work from an action list drawn up by a fire risk assessor for buildings in Bray. Send us the list or the survey and we’ll quote for the fire-rated sealant work on it. If you are dealing with linear gaps at the head of walls and door frames with gaps between frame and wall, we can help.

Workplaces and buildings in Bray
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, and gaps around services are often picked up there. We apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details. There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Bray. For hotels, a room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.
If you let a flat or house near Taplow station, new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant. For buildings such as St Michael's Church, older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking.

What else we do in Bray
Why act early in Bray
Fire-rated sealants are less forgiving than ordinary ones. Depth, backing and surface preparation all affect how a seal performs, so we follow the maker’s details on every gap. In a small place like Bray, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first.
Why book with us
- Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild
- We are fully insured
- We leave the area clean and tidy
- Every job guaranteed for a year

Common questions in Bray
Do you work in hotels near Bray?
Yes, we work for hotels as well as homes and businesses. Rooms can be done a few at a time, so the building stays open.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Taplow station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
What should I tell you?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. Photos by email help too.
Do you cover Bray?
We do. Bray is part of the area we cover.
Do you do fire sealant around door frames?
Yes, where the gap suits a sealant detail. We seal the frame-to-wall gap, not the door itself, and we’ll mention anything we notice about the door.
What fire rating will the seal have?
We don’t issue ratings or certificates ourselves. The performance comes from the product’s tested details and the specification from your assessor or designer.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, every time. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Where are you based?
We are a Crawley-based firm, with over 20 years’ experience. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
Keeping the joints in good condition
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Ask every contractor to reseal any fire stopping they disturb
- Do not paint over fire sealant until it has cured
- Keep the record of products and locations with your fire safety documents
- Include hidden areas like risers in routine checks
Follow the cure time we give you before decorating over the sealant. Not every fire-rated sealant takes paint and we will tell you which one you have.
When you plan work that goes through walls or ceilings, plan the fire stopping too. Catching it then saves a separate visit later.
Do you need fire rated sealant in Bray?
Over time, buildings change layout and use. A house turned into flats or an HMO, or an office split into smaller units, brings new walls, new service routes and new gaps.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Fire seals that have cracked with movement
- Gaps left after a refit or conversion
- Ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed
- Gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs
Schools such as Dorney School are buildings too, and gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices.
Before you book anyone
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- Who turns up on the day
- What guarantee comes with the work
What sealant work cannot fix
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:
- Issuing a fire rating or certificate for a building
- Large holes that need a different fire-stopping system
- Deciding what fire stopping a building needs
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

The job generally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go.

- Old, damaged or unsuitable sealant is removed.
- Dust and loose debris are cleaned from each gap.
