Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Chale Green
We often work from an action list drawn up by a fire risk assessor on buildings across Chale Green. Send us the list or the survey and we will quote for the fire-rated sealant work on it. If you have damaged fire sealant left by other trades and unsealed gaps around fire door frames, we can put it right.
In a village or hamlet like Chale Green, 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.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee.

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Report cracked or damaged seals as soon as you notice them
- Include fire stopping when you schedule refits
- Never patch a fire seal with standard sealant
- 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 get them seen to.
An open gap isn’t only a fire issue: noise, draughts and even pests can come through too. Dealing with them early helps with all of these.
Landlord and commercial work in Chale Green
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Should I try it myself first?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.
What sealant work cannot fix
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:
- Fire risk assessments, which need a qualified assessor
- Construction that does not provide fire resistance on its own
- Large holes that need a different fire-stopping system
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Plasterboard & masonry
- Door frames

What happens if it’s left?
Fire-rated sealants need more care than everyday sealant. How it’s installed changes how it performs, and we work to the product details every time. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Chale Green, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
What it costs 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 any work starts, so you know where you stand.

What we are called out for in Chale Green
Sealant applied too thin, without the backing its detail needs, or onto dust won’t perform as it was tested. We see plenty of fire stopping that was hurried particularly when it was the last job before handover.
People generally contact us when they notice one of these:
- Fire stopping disturbed by later work
- Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
- Gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs
- New service routes left unsealed after building work
For buildings such as St. James' Church, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.

Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. To get one, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing and where.
Will you assess my building’s fire safety?
No. We follow the requirements from your assessor, designer or building control, and apply each product to its tested details.
What does intumescent mean?
Fire-rated is the broad term for sealants tested for fire stopping. Intumescent ones swell in heat, and they’re one option among several. The specification and the tested detail decide which is used.
Can I use normal mastic around a pipe through a fire wall?
No. Ordinary silicone, caulk or foam is not tested as fire stopping. If it’s been used, we remove it and use the right product.
Are you insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before resealing.
What fire rated sealant looks like in Chale Green
If you run a hotel, guest house or holiday let in a coastal place like Chale Green, busy months put washrooms and kitchens under pressure, so it’s worth checking the sealant before the busiest weeks. 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 work to the specification you are given, installing the product to its tested details.
In and around Chale Green, as anywhere, good fire rated sealant starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

How the visit works
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access in most cases. Somewhere as small as Chale Green, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- Access to each area is agreed so the work can run in order.
- Old, damaged or unsuitable sealant is removed.
- Gaps are cleaned of dust and loose material.
- We apply and tool the sealant to the product’s tested detail.
- We record what was done and flag anything that needs a different system.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
