How we handle fire rated sealant in Cowesfield Gate
Where services or frames pass through a fire-resisting wall or floor, the gap around them needs a fire-rated seal. We apply intumescent and fire-rated sealants to the manufacturer’s tested details for each gap. If you have holes left by a change of layout and sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list, we can put it right.
For a small place like Cowesfield Gate, the journey and timings are agreed in advance, so it can be fitted around guests, clients or events where possible.
Every job is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Keeping the joints in good condition
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Never patch a fire seal with standard sealant
- Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks
- Do not paint over fire sealant until it has cured
- Plan fire stopping into any work that goes through walls or floors
File the record of locations and products with your fire safety paperwork. It saves time at the next inspection or assessment.
A flagged gap shouldn’t wait for the next assessment. Have it sealed, then keep the record.
What we do, step by step
Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building and we leave things clean and tidy. In a small place like Cowesfield Gate, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We begin by agreeing the list of gaps from your assessor’s or designer’s requirements.
- Each gap is measured and its substrate and service noted.
- Any non-fire-rated filler is removed.
- The specified fire-rated sealant goes in over any backing its detail requires.
- Every location is recorded with the product used for your records.
Preparing for the visit

What affects the quote in Cowesfield Gate
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We look at:
- Access and height
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The size of the job
Doing several joints on one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.
Helping us quote
To make quoting easier, please include:
- Where the property is
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Roughly how big the job is
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is, and add pictures by email if you can.
Why deal with it now?
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. Older cottages and farmhouses around Cowesfield Gate can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask about the job first and send you a clear quote before work begins.
Why book with us
- 20+ years of sealant experience
- Full insurance on every job

What fire rated sealant looks like in Cowesfield Gate
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.
Around Cowesfield Gate, as everywhere, fire rated sealant is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Common problems we fix in Cowesfield Gate
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 they leave doesn’t always get resealed.
The most common problems we see are:
- Joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey
- Gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls
- Open joints along the top of partitions
- Damaged fire sealant left by other trades
Rented homes near Dean station change hands often, and new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant.
Questions to ask before you book
- What insurance they hold
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
Questions from Cowesfield Gate
Will you come out to Cowesfield Gate?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Dean station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes. Each job is guaranteed for twelve months.
Do you seal gaps around fire door frames?
Yes. Gaps behind architraves are a common job for us. Doors, seals and closers need a door specialist.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, every time. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Is intumescent sealant the same as fire-rated sealant?
An intumescent material expands when it’s heated. Many fire-rated sealants work this way, but not all.
What do you put in the joint?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We’ll tell you what we’re using and why.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
We work from Crawley. We cover Cowesfield Gate and the rest of Hampshire.
Can I do it myself?
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.
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 doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
