Fire rated sealant in Brownbread Street, done properly
Where services or frames pass through a fire-resisting wall or floor, the gap around them needs a fire-rated seal. We apply intumescent and fire-rated sealants to the manufacturer’s tested details for each gap, with a record of the products and locations if you need one. We work on plasterboard & masonry, linear gaps and door frames, and common reasons people get in touch are unsealed gaps around fire door frames and fire seals that have cracked with movement.
If you have holiday lets, a converted barn used for business or a community building near Brownbread Street, the washrooms, kitchens and any fire-rated joints need the same care as a big site.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

What fire rated sealant looks like in Brownbread Street
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.
For buildings such as Parish Church of St Peter, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building. If you let a flat or house near Battle station, any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.

Aftercare tips
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks
- Keep pictures of seals that will be hidden
- Report cracked or damaged seals as soon as you notice them
- Ask which product was used before you paint
Include fire stopping in your regular building checks. Watch for cracking, gaps or seals that have been disturbed and have them put right.
Any job that breaks through a wall or ceiling should include resealing. Catching it then saves a separate visit later.
The process
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that is where we spend the time. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. In total, it normally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. For a village or hamlet like Brownbread Street, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- Access to each area is agreed so the work can run in order.
- We take out any damaged or unsuitable sealant.
- Dust and loose debris are cleaned from each gap.
- The fire-rated or intumescent sealant is applied and tooled to the tested detail.
- We record what was done and flag anything that needs a different system.
How to prepare
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

What’s the difference between intumescent and fire-rated sealant?
Intumescent means it swells when heated, helping close the gap. Intumescent sealants are one kind of fire-rated sealant; which product suits depends on the gap, the substrate and the service.
Can I use normal mastic around a pipe through a fire wall?
No. It might close the gap, but it is not a fire-rated seal. Use a product tested for that gap and service and we can apply it for you.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
Different surfaces, different methods
Masonry and concrete
Holes through concrete and block are rarely neat. We measure the gap at its widest point against the product’s tested range.
Linear gaps
Linear gaps run along the head of walls, at floor edges and between panels. They’re sealed with a fire-rated sealant over backing where the detail calls for it.
What happens if it’s left?
Fire-rated sealants are less forgiving than ordinary ones. How it’s installed changes how it performs, and we work to the product details every time. In a small place like Brownbread Street, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Doing several joints on one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We will send you a clear quote for the lot.
