What fire rated sealant looks like in Cramhurst
In England, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires a fire risk assessment for workplaces and for the common parts of blocks of flats, and gaps around services are often picked up there. We apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details.
Community buildings like St John the Evangelist's Church are part of the picture too: older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking.

How we handle fire rated sealant in Cramhurst
Filling a fire-stopping gap with standard silicone or caulk does not make it fire-rated. Anything unsuitable comes out first and reseal with a fire-rated product tested for that kind of gap. If you’re dealing with ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed and damaged fire sealant left by other trades, we can put it right.
In a village or hamlet like Cramhurst, commercial work is more likely to be a pub, a farm shop, holiday lets or a village hall than an office block. Each still needs sound sealant in its washrooms and kitchens, and fire-rated joints where services pass through walls.
Our work is backed for twelve months.

Leave it or put it right?
Items left open on a fire risk assessment tend to come back at the next review. Having them sealed and recorded now gives you evidence that the item was dealt with. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Cramhurst, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs. Ask us for a quote and we’ll explain what it covers.

Questions from Cramhurst
Do you work for landlords with property near Milford (Surrey) station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Will you come out to Cramhurst?
Yes, Cramhurst is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We’re an ARBOMaster approved applicator, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.
What should I tell you?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all.
What sealant do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We’ll tell you what we are using and why.
Do you carry out fire risk assessments?
No, assessment isn’t something we do. Once you have a specification or action list from your assessor or designer, we can quote for the fire-rated sealant items.
Do I have to be there?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that normally means someone at home.
Common problems we fix in Cramhurst
Movement in the structure can open gaps too: cracked or debonded sealant leaves an open route through the wall. Damage from cleaning, knocks and maintenance adds to it.
People generally contact us after spotting one of these:
- Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
- Cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant
- New service routes left unsealed after building work
- Joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey
Letting a property close to Milford (Surrey) station? Then any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.
Before you book anyone
- When the joint can take water or movement
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether VAT is included
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
How it works
On the day, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. Most jobs take a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. In a small place like Cramhurst, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- Access to each area is agreed so the work can run in order.
- We take out any damaged or unsuitable sealant.
- Dust and loose debris are cleaned from each gap.
- The fire-rated or intumescent sealant is applied and tooled to the tested detail.
- We record what was done and flag anything that needs a different system.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the work
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
Getting a quote
We quote each job on its own, so the first step is telling us about yours. Simply call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and describe the job.

What affects the quote in Cramhurst
Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:
- The number and length of the joints
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- When we can work, for business premises
- Whether the work is at height
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You’ll know the price before we begin.
What we need to know
To make quoting easier, please include:
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- The type of property
- Where the job is, and your postcode
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and email photos if that is easy.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
What sealant work can’t fix
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant will not do:
- Big openings where sealant alone is not the tested solution
- Problems with the door itself rather than the gap around the frame
- A wall that is not a fire-resisting element to begin with
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Door frames
- Plasterboard & masonry
- Flats & HMOs
- Linear gaps
- Pipe & cable gaps
- Service penetrations
Aftercare tips
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks
- Store the list of sealed gaps with your building paperwork
- Keep general-purpose foam and caulk away from fire-stopping gaps
- Flag any open gap you spot round a pipe or cable
Include fire stopping in your regular building checks. Look for cracks, gaps or sealant that has been cut or pulled out and get them seen to.
A flagged gap shouldn’t wait for the next assessment. Get it sealed and recorded.
