About our fire rated sealant in Corringham
A fire seal relies on being installed the way it was tested: the right depth, the right backing and the right product for the substrate. That is the part we focus on, gap by gap. Typical jobs include door frames with gaps between frame and wall and gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls, across flats & HMOs, door frames and plasterboard & masonry.
In a smaller place like Corringham, 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 anything isn’t right with it, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Should I try it myself first?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again.
What the job involves on each surface
Plasterboard walls
Plasterboard partitions are common in flats, offices and conversions. We use a product tested in that kind of wall for the gap we’re sealing.
Flats and HMOs
Working in occupied flats needs some planning. We agree access to each flat and the common parts before work begins so residents know what to expect.
Why act early in Corringham
For some gaps, sealant is not the right answer and another system is needed. Large holes, cable bundles and plastic pipes can call for batts, collars or wraps. If a gap is not suitable for sealant, we will tell you. In an older home around Corringham, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
Doing several joints on one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.

For landlords and businesses
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. We can quote for more than one property at once.
For anyone letting property in or around Corringham, jobs at different addresses can be quoted together. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs, and photos by email help.
How we quote for fire rated sealant
There’s no set price list, because no two jobs are the same. The quote depends on:
- The number of rooms or windows
- The amount of work
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Any mould that needs treating
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.
What we need to know
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Try to tell us:
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Where the property is
- The type of property
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
There’s no standard price list, because every job is different. Instead, we give you a clear price for your job. To arrange one, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Fire rated sealant around Corringham
If you run a hotel, guest house or holiday let in a coastal place like Corringham, busy months put washrooms and kitchens under pressure, so it’s worth checking the sealant before the busiest weeks. 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.
Rented homes near Stanford-Le-Hope station change hands often, and any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of St Mary, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there. If you look after a building such as Ortu Corringham Primary School, service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.

Your questions about fire rated sealant in Corringham
Is Corringham within the area you cover?
Yes, Corringham is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you work for landlords with property near Stanford-Le-Hope station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we will send you a clear quote.
What sealant do you use?
The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
Will you assess my building’s fire safety?
No, assessment isn’t something we do. When your assessor or designer has set out what’s needed, we will quote for the sealant work on it.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Of course. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
Do I need to be at home?
That depends on where the joints are. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we are part of it.
Is there any odour?
Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.
