Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Crockerhill
A gap around a door frame, a linear joint at the head of a wall and a hole round a pipe are each sealed differently. Measuring the gap and checking what it’s made of comes first, then apply it to the depth its tested detail calls for. Common call-outs are for open holes round services passing through fire walls and holes left by a change of layout, across plasterboard & masonry, door frames and service penetrations.
If you have holiday lets, a converted barn used for business or a community building near Crockerhill, the washrooms, kitchens and any fire-rated joints need the same care as a big site.
Our work is backed for twelve months.

FAQs for Crockerhill
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Fareham station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Is Crockerhill within the area you cover?
Yes. Crockerhill is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Where do you work from?
Our base is Crawley. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
How long does fire rated sealant take?
Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are, including the preparation. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, every time. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
What do you put in the joint?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, chosen to suit the joint. We explain the product when we quote.
Is it worth trying it myself?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
Why deal with it now?
For some gaps, sealant is not the right answer and another system is needed. Big openings, bundles of cables and plastic pipes may need batts, collars or wraps instead. We’ll say so if a gap needs something other than sealant. Older cottages and farmhouses around Crockerhill can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Doing several joints on one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We’ll give you a clear quote for the lot.

Can I do it myself?
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

How it works
We bring everything the job needs with us, so you don’t need to buy or prepare anything. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. In a small place like Crockerhill, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- 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.
- Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out.
- The specified fire-rated sealant goes in over any backing its detail requires.
- Every location is recorded with the product used for your records.
Before we arrive
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Aftercare tips
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Keep general-purpose foam and caulk away from fire-stopping gaps
- Do not paint over fire sealant until it has cured
- Photograph sealed gaps before they’re covered up
- Look in service cupboards and ceiling voids from time to time
Keep the record we give you with the building’s fire safety documents. It saves time at the next inspection or assessment.
Open gaps do not only matter in a fire: they also let noise, draughts and sometimes pests through. Sealing them early helps on every front.
