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.
In and around Bull's Green, as anywhere, good fire rated sealant starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Fire rated sealant in Bull's Green
We don’t assess buildings or decide what fire stopping is needed; that comes from your fire risk assessor, designer or building control. What we do is apply the right product to that specification, properly and neatly. If you are dealing with gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment and gaps filled with a product that isn’t fire-rated, we can help.
If you have holiday lets, a converted barn used for business or a community building near Bull's Green, the washrooms, kitchens and any fire-rated joints need the same care as a big site.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Why deal with it now?
Items left open on a fire risk assessment tend to come back at the next review. Getting them done and written up gives you evidence that the item was dealt with. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Bull's Green, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
The cost depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before work begins, so you know where you stand.

Should I try it myself first?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Honest limits
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- A wall that isn’t a fire-resisting element to begin with
- Doors that aren’t fire doors in the first place
- Deciding what fire stopping a building needs

How the job changes by surface
Service penetrations
Service penetrations are where new gaps often appear. Old or unsuitable filler comes out before the right sealant goes in with backing where the detail needs it.
Plasterboard walls
Service holes in plasterboard are often rough and oversized. Gaps that are too big for sealant alone need a different detail and we will flag it.
FAQs for Bull's Green

Can I do it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
What should I tell you?
A short description and the location, plus pictures if you have them. We will ask anything else we need to know.
How long does the job take?
Typically it takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. Larger jobs naturally take longer.
Will there be a smell?
Sometimes, a little. It fades as the sealant cures.
Which products do you use?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference.
Do you certify the fire stopping?
We do not issue ratings or certificates ourselves. The performance comes from the product’s tested details and the specification from your assessor or designer.

- Old fire sealant that has split or come away
- Open joints along the top of partitions
- Joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey
- Gaps left after a refit or conversion

How it works
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we are treating. Expect the work to take a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. For a village or hamlet like Bull's Green, 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.
- We start with the survey or action list, checking the size and surfaces of every gap.
- Anything that isn’t fit for the job comes out, and the gap is cleaned.
- Where the tested detail needs backing or fill, we fit it.
- The sealant goes in to the depth its detail sets, then it’s tooled off.
- We record the locations and products used for your records.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice
What affects the cost of fire rated sealant
There’s no set price list, because no two jobs are the same. The quote depends on:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- The size of the job
- Whether the work is at height
- The number of rooms or windows
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- The rough size of the job

- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Where the property is
Quotes start with a quick conversation. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is. When it suits you, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.
