About our fire rated sealant in Chesham
Landlords, managing agents and facilities teams use us for the sealant items on a fire risk assessment. If you share the list, we can quote for the gaps that need fire-rated sealant. We work on service penetrations, pipe & cable gaps and door frames, and people most often call us about new service routes left unsealed after building work and fire seals that have cracked with movement.
Shared washrooms take far more use than a home bathroom, and their sealant shows it, and fire-rated joints need restoring whenever new services are run through a wall. For a building in Chesham, we plan timings around how it’s used.
All our work comes with a 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Buckinghamshire.

Why act early in Chesham
Sealant is not the fix for every opening. Big openings, bundles of cables and plastic pipes may need batts, collars or wraps instead. We’ll say so if a gap needs something other than sealant. In a family home in Chesham, a failed seal around a bath or a frame lets water into places you cannot see, like the floor under a bath, the back of a panel or the inside of a wall. Whatever the joint, failed sealant only gets worse.
Combining jobs into one visit is generally more efficient than separate visits. We will send you a clear quote for the lot.
Why us?
- Every job guaranteed for a year
- ARBOMaster approved applicator

What we are called out for in Chesham
Gaps around door frames are easily missed. The gap between the frame and the wall is hidden behind the architrave, so it’s easy to leave unsealed when doors are changed.
Look out for these signs:
- Gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls
- Gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment
- Old fire sealant that has split or come away
- Open joints along the top of partitions
If you look after a building such as Elmtree Infant and Nursery School, fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room. We have worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
Can I do it myself?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, 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.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
