How we handle fire rated sealant in Claygate
We can work through a building room by room or floor by floor, with each location and product recorded. That record is useful for your files and for whoever looks at the building next. Common call-outs are for ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed and open holes round services passing through fire walls, across plasterboard & masonry, flats & HMOs and linear gaps.
In a smaller place like Claygate, commercial jobs tend to be smaller buildings: a pub, a surgery, a school, a shop or a few business units. The work is the same as in a big building, just on a smaller scale.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

What else we do in Claygate
Keeping the joints in good condition
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks
- File the fire-stopping record where your assessor can find it
- Never patch a fire seal with standard sealant
- Keep photos of seals that will be hidden
Follow the cure time we give you before decorating over the sealant. Not every fire-rated sealant takes paint and we’ll tell you which one you have.
A flagged gap shouldn’t wait for the next assessment. Have it sealed, then keep the record so you can show it was dealt with.
Fire rated sealant in Claygate: local notes
Workplaces and the common parts of blocks of flats in England need a fire risk assessment under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which is often where open fire-stopping gaps are first noticed. We work to the specification you’re given, installing the product to its tested details.
For buildings such as Church of Holy Trinity, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there. Rented homes near Claygate station change hands often, and fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through.

Can I do it myself?
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
What we do, step by step
We bring everything the job needs with us, so there’s nothing for you to buy. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. It normally takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. A visit to Claygate is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- Before starting, we go through the specification or action list with you.
- We measure every gap and note what it’s in and what passes through.
- Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out and the faces cleaned.
- The specified fire-rated sealant goes in over any backing its detail requires.
- Every location is recorded with the product used for your files.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the work
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

When to call us in Claygate
Lots of unsealed gaps appear long after the building was completed. New cables, pipes and data runs go through walls and ceilings and the hole round the new service is not always sealed again.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Open holes round services passing through fire walls
- Linear gaps at the head of walls
- Old fire sealant that has split or come away
- Gaps left after a refit or conversion
Schools such as Claygate Primary School are buildings too, and service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.
Before booking anyone
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- What the cure time is
- Whether VAT is included
Different surfaces, different methods
Plasterboard walls
We check that the board around the gap is sound. Crumbling edges are cleaned back before the sealant goes in.
Linear gaps
Gaps along the top of partitions are easy to miss above a ceiling. We seal them along their full length leaving no stretch unsealed.
Common questions in Claygate
Is Claygate within the area you cover?
Yes, Claygate is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can you do fire rated sealant in Claygate?
Yes, Claygate is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job, and we will send you a clear quote.
Where are you based?
We are a Crawley-based firm. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
What information do you need?
Only a few details: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. After that, simply call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before applying anything new.
Should I try DIY first?
That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
Most of the time, yes. We will explain which colours are available.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are glad to have it sorted.
What happens if it’s left?
Paying for fire stopping that has to be redone is a false economy. If the details weren’t followed, the seal may need redoing when the building is next checked. In an older home around Claygate, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference.
