How we handle fire rated sealant in Dane Hill
Door frame gaps, linear joints and holes around services all have their own details. Measuring the gap and checking what it’s made of comes first, then apply it to the depth its tested detail calls for. If you’re dealing with sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list and damaged fire sealant left by other trades, we can put it right, on door frames, service penetrations and pipe & cable gaps alike.
If you have holiday lets, a converted barn used for business or a community building near Dane Hill, washroom and kitchen sealant and any fire-rated joints need the same attention as anywhere.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after we have gone.

Surface by surface
Plasterboard walls
Service holes in plasterboard are often rough and oversized. Where a hole is bigger than the sealant’s tested range, it needs another approach and we will flag it.
Linear gaps
Some linear gaps have to cope with movement as well as fire. The product and depth are chosen to suit both.
What happens if it’s left?
Items left open on a fire risk assessment tend to come back at the next review. Having them sealed and recorded now means you can show the action was taken. Around Dane Hill, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
We don’t show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a quick quote, please ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll talk you through it.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Keep general-purpose foam and caulk away from fire-stopping gaps
- Store the list of sealed gaps with your building paperwork
- Include fire stopping when you schedule refits
- Get damaged fire seals looked at promptly
Any fire seal that is cut or drilled needs resealing to its tested detail. If you need new services through a sealed wall, plan the fire stopping as part of the job.
Small gaps around services are simple to deal with while there are only a few. Leave them and each new job adds another hole and the job gets bigger.
What we are called out for in Dane Hill
Door frames are a common weak spot. The architrave hides the gap between frame and wall, so it can be left open when a door is replaced.
People generally contact us when they notice one of these:
- Fire seals that have cracked with movement
- Gaps left after a refit or conversion
- Gaps filled with a product that is not fire-rated
- Fire stopping disturbed by later work
Community buildings like Church of St Mary are part of the picture too: service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.
What your quote should include
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- Whether VAT is included
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
What affects the cost of fire rated sealant

Questions from Dane Hill
Do you cover smaller places like Dane Hill?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you take on hotel work around Dane Hill?
Yes, hospitality work, including hotels, is part of what we do. Work can be planned room by room, and out-of-hours working can be arranged.
Can you tell me how many minutes the seal will last?
Ratings and certificates are not something we issue. The performance comes from the product’s tested details and the specification from your assessor or designer; we install to those details and record what we did.
What do you put in the joint?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we will tell you what we are using.
Do I need to be at home?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you don’t need to watch us work.
Do you do fire sealant around door frames?
Yes. We often seal open gaps hidden behind the architrave. The door and its fittings are a separate job for a door specialist.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
We’re a Crawley-based firm. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
What information do you need?
Tell us what needs doing and where. If we need more, we will ask.
Can I do it myself?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, 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.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
