Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Dragons Green
In flats, HMOs, offices and schools, fire stopping is often disturbed by later work. One new cable or pipe can leave a gap that nobody goes back to seal. Those are the gaps we close, using a tested fire-rated product. Common call-outs are for standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap and gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment, across linear gaps, plasterboard & masonry and door frames.
Somewhere as small as Dragons Green, commercial jobs tend to be pubs, holiday lets, farm buildings or halls rather than offices. They all have washrooms, kitchens and service openings that need the right sealant.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

DIY versus a professional finish
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.

FAQs for Dragons Green
Is Dragons Green within the area you cover?
Yes. Dragons Green is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Do you cover Dragons Green for fire rated sealant?
Yes, Dragons Green is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, and it traps any mould or water underneath. It all has to come out first.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
Do you carry out fire risk assessments?
No, we don’t assess buildings. When your assessor or designer has set out what’s needed, we can quote for the fire-rated sealant items.
What does intumescent mean?
Fire-rated sealant covers any sealant tested for use in fire stopping. Intumescent types expand when heated, and they’re one option among several. We use whichever the specification and tested details call for.
Where are you based?
Our base is in Crawley, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Can you match the sealant colour?
Yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available, and we’ll agree it with you first.
Why act early in Dragons Green
A quick fill with any sealant to hand isn’t fire stopping. Fire-rated products are tested in set gap sizes, depths and substrates, so both the product and the method matter. Around Dragons Green, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Ask us for a quote and we’ll explain what it covers.

Different surfaces, different methods
Linear gaps
Gaps along the top of partitions are easy to miss above a ceiling. We seal them along their full length leaving no stretch unsealed.
Flats and HMOs
In flats and HMOs, the walls and floors between homes and common areas need sealing where services pass through. We seal the gaps your assessor has identified room by room.
The process
Once we are on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. In a small place like Dragons Green, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We go through the gaps on your list or survey and check each one’s size and substrate.
- Anything that is not fit for the job comes out, and the gap is cleaned.
- Where the tested detail needs backing or fill, we fit it.
- The sealant goes in to the depth its detail sets, then it’s tooled off.
- Finally, we list where we worked and what we used, for your records.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Advice
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks
- Store the list of sealed gaps with your building paperwork
- Don’t paint over fire sealant until it has cured
- Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
Look at the sealed gaps as part of your routine walk-rounds. Watch for cracking, gaps or seals that have been disturbed and get them seen to.
Any job that breaks through a wall or ceiling should include resealing. Catching it then saves a separate visit later.
What fire rated sealant looks like in Dragons Green
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, which is often where open fire-stopping gaps are first noticed. We work to the specification you are given, installing the product to its tested details.
Rented homes near Billingshurst station change hands often, and fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Shipley CofE Primary School, fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.

Do you need fire rated sealant in Dragons Green?
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.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- New service routes left unsealed after building work
- Linear gaps at the head of walls
- Old fire sealant that has split or come away
- Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
Community buildings like The Church of St Mary the Virgin are part of the picture too: service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.
