We can work through a building room by room or floor by floor, with each location and product recorded. It gives you a list to keep with the building’s fire safety documents. If you have open holes round services passing through fire walls and sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
If you have holiday lets, a converted barn used for business or a community building near Chilton Green, the washrooms, kitchens and any fire-rated joints need the same care as a big site.

Why act early in Chilton Green
Fire-rated sealants are less forgiving than ordinary ones. Depth, backing and surface preparation all affect how a seal performs, and we work to the product details every time. Older cottages and farmhouses around Chilton Green can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Questions from Chilton Green
What guarantee comes with fire rated sealant in Chilton Green?
Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever it is. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Do you cover Chilton Green for fire rated sealant?
Yes, Chilton Green is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
What’s the difference between intumescent and fire-rated sealant?
An intumescent material expands when it’s heated. Many fire-rated sealants work this way, but not all.
Should I try DIY first?
You can, for simple jobs. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.
Which products do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference.
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.
Are you insured?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured.
What fire rating will the seal have?
We do not certify fire stopping or quote ratings. Our part is installing the specified product to its tested details and giving you a record of where it went.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Chilton Green

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements.
What affects the quote in Chilton Green
There’s no set price list, because no two jobs are the same. What we look at:
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The number and length of the joints
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Whether the work is at height
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You’ll know the price before we begin.
What to tell us for a quote
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Try to tell us:
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Where the property is
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
Quotes start with a quick conversation. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we will explain how we’d tackle it. Whenever you’re ready, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.
How to look after the new joints
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Flag any open gap you spot round a pipe or cable
- Ask every contractor to reseal any fire stopping they disturb
- Don’t fill fire-stopping gaps with ordinary foam or silicone
- Look in service cupboards and ceiling voids from time to time
Let contractors know where fire stopping has been done, and ask them to reseal anything they cut through. Later work is a common cause of damaged fire stopping.
Small gaps around services are simple to deal with while there are only a few. Over time, more work adds more holes and the list grows.
DIY versus a professional finish
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
Fire rated sealant in Chilton Green: local notes
If you run a hotel, guest house or holiday let in a coastal place like Chilton Green, heavy use in the busy months is hard on washroom and kitchen sealant, and any building work there should leave fire-rated joints made good. 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 are given, installing the product to its tested details.
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St Peter and St Paul's Church, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.

When to call us in Chilton Green
Sealant applied too thin, without the backing its detail needs, or onto dust won’t perform as it was tested. Rushed fire stopping is common.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Open gaps behind door architraves
- Fire seals that have cracked with movement
- Open joints along the top of partitions
- Fire stopping disturbed by later work
If you look after a building such as Brighstone Church of England Aided Primary School, service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.
