Fire rated sealant in Burntcommon
Fire stopping only performs as intended if it’s done to the detail: the right depth, the right backing and the right product for the substrate. That detail is what we take care over, gap by gap. Common call-outs are for fire stopping disturbed by later work and linear gaps at the head of walls, on service penetrations, door frames and flats & HMOs.
Somewhere as small as Burntcommon, 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.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Why deal with it now?
An open gap in a fire-resisting wall is a route for smoke and fire. Sealing it properly restores what the wall was there to do, and the work involved is often modest. Around Burntcommon, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
We don’t show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will talk you through it.

Surface by surface
Door frames
The gap between a door frame and the wall around it needs sealing as well as the door itself. We fill it with a fire-rated product suited to the materials either side.
Flats and HMOs
In flats and HMOs, the walls and floors between homes and common areas need sealing where services pass through. We work through the gaps on your assessment room by room.

Fire rated sealant around Burntcommon
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, which is often where open fire-stopping gaps are first noticed. We apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details.
Managing a site like Send CofE Primary School? Then service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment. If you let a flat or house near Clandon station, new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant.

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Photograph sealed gaps before they’re covered up
- Check whether a sealant can be painted before decorating over it
- Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
- Report cracked or damaged seals as soon as you notice them
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. Closing it is generally a straightforward job.
