What affects the cost of fire rated sealant
You’ll get a clear quote before any work starts. It’s based on:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- How easy the joints are to reach
- How many areas need sealing
- Any working-time requirements on site
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
What to tell us for a quote
What to tell us when you ask for a quote:
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Where the property is
- Whether it has been sealed before
- Roughly how big the job is
There’s no standard price list, because every job is different. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To get started, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Fire rated sealant in Burwash Common, done properly
We often work from an action list drawn up by a fire risk assessor on buildings across Burwash Common. If you share the list, we can quote for the gaps that need fire-rated sealant. Common call-outs are for joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey and new service routes left unsealed after building work, on pipe & cable gaps, flats & HMOs and door frames.
In a village or hamlet like Burwash Common, commercial work is more likely to be a pub, a farm shop, holiday lets or a village hall than an office block. Each still needs sound sealant in its washrooms and kitchens, and fire-rated joints where services pass through walls.
Every job is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Workplaces and buildings in Burwash Common
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.
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St Philip's Church, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.

Signs you need fire rated sealant in Burwash Common
Gaps around door frames are easily missed. The architrave hides the gap between frame and wall, so it’s easy to leave unsealed when doors are changed.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list
- Holes left by a change of layout
- Fire seals that have cracked with movement
- Unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall
Letting a property close to Stonegate station? Then any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.
Questions to ask before you book
- How much experience the applicator has
- What the cure time is
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
Keeping the joints in good condition
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Look in service cupboards and ceiling voids from time to time
- Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
- Keep the record of products and locations with your fire safety documents
- Never patch a fire seal with standard sealant
File the record of locations and products with your fire safety paperwork. It saves time at the next inspection or assessment.
A gap left open in a fire-resisting wall or floor lets smoke spread in ways the building wasn’t designed for. Closing it is generally a straightforward job.
Surface by surface
Service penetrations
Service penetrations are where new gaps often appear. We clean out what’s there and reseal to the right depth with backing where the detail needs it.
Plasterboard walls
Many fire-resisting walls in flats, offices and conversions are plasterboard. We use a product tested in that kind of wall.
What happens on the day
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we are doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before we start. Most jobs take from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. Somewhere as small as Burwash Common, access is often the only tricky part. 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.
- Each gap is measured and its substrate and service noted.
- Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out.
- We fit backing where needed and apply the fire-rated sealant to depth.
- Every location is recorded with the product used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
