About our fire rated sealant in Burham
Bigger jobs can be worked through in stages, flat by flat or floor by floor. That record is useful for your files and for whoever looks at the building next. If you have unsealed gaps around fire door frames and gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment, we can help, whatever the surface.
Somewhere as small as Burham, commercial jobs tend to be pubs, holiday lets, farm buildings or halls rather than offices. They all have washrooms, kitchens and service openings that need the right sealant.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Fire rated sealant in Burham: local notes
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.
For buildings such as St Mary's Church, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building. Schools such as Burham Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in. If you let a flat or house near Snodland station, any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.

Why it’s worth doing now in Burham
For some gaps, sealant is not the right answer and another system is needed. Large holes, cable bundles and plastic pipes can call for batts, collars or wraps. We’ll say so if a gap needs something other than sealant. Around Burham, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll explain what it covers.

Which products do you use?

Do you guarantee your work?

Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, because it fails. We remove every bit of old sealant first, so the new sealant bonds properly.
What should I tell you?
Tell us what needs doing and where, with photos by email if possible. If we need more, we’ll ask.
Can ordinary silicone be used in a fire-stopping gap?
No. It might close the gap, but it isn’t a fire-rated seal. A tested fire-rated product is needed.
When it is not the sealant
In fairness, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- Openings too large for sealant, which need batts, boards or another system
- Doors that aren’t fire doors in the first place
- Construction that does not provide fire resistance on its own
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Burham
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
How the visit works
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we’re treating, so you can get on with your day. The job generally takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. In a small place like Burham, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We begin by agreeing the list of gaps from your assessor’s or designer’s requirements.
- We measure every gap and note what it’s in and what passes through.
- Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out and the faces cleaned.
- We fit backing where needed and apply the fire-rated sealant to depth.
- We hand over a list of locations and products for your files.
Before we arrive
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Advice
Looking after it afterwards
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep general-purpose foam and caulk away from fire-stopping gaps
- File the fire-stopping record where your assessor can find it
- Plan fire stopping into any work that goes through walls or floors
- Check whether a sealant can be painted before decorating over it
Don’t drill through or remove a fire seal without putting it back properly. If you need new services through a sealed wall, plan the fire stopping as part of the job.
Leave a fire-stopping gap open and smoke can move through the building much more easily. Sealing it early is a simple step to take.
