About our fire rated sealant in Drumlemble
Where services or frames pass through a fire-resisting wall or floor, the gap around them needs a fire-rated seal. Each gap is sealed to the product maker’s tested detail for its size and substrate, with a record of the products and locations if you need one. Typical jobs include gaps left after a refit or conversion and seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers, across pipe & cable gaps, flats & HMOs and linear gaps.
For holiday lets, guest houses and community buildings in or near Drumlemble, washroom and kitchen sealant and any fire-rated joints need the same attention as anywhere.
You get a 12-month guarantee, the same in Drumlemble as everywhere else we work.

The process
We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are and we leave things clean and tidy. Outside jobs in Drumlemble need a dry day, because sealant won’t bond to a wet joint, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Work indoors isn’t affected.
- We go through the gaps on your list or survey and check each one’s size and substrate.
- Old or unsuitable sealant is cut out and the gap cleaned.
- Where the tested detail needs backing or fill, we fit it.
- We apply the fire-rated or intumescent sealant to the specified depth and tool it.
- Locations and products are noted so you have them on file.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Clear the area around the work
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

How the job changes by surface
Service penetrations
Wherever a service goes through a fire-resisting wall or floor, there’s a gap around it. The sealant is chosen for what passes through and how wide the gap is.
Linear gaps
A linear joint may need to allow for movement as well as fire. We choose a product and depth that suit the gap and the movement, following the tested detail.

Do you remove the old sealant?

When to call us in Drumlemble
In some buildings the gap was filled with the wrong thing in the first place: general-purpose foam, everyday silicone or caulk where a fire-rated seal was needed. It looks sealed, but it is not fire-rated.
The problems people usually mention when they call are:
- Unsealed gaps around fire door frames
- New service routes left unsealed after building work
- Open joints along the top of partitions
- Gaps filled with a product that is not fire-rated
In and around Drumlemble, as anywhere, good fire rated sealant starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
What your quote should include
- Which colour the sealant will be
- When the joint can take water or movement
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- How long the guarantee is
How to look after the new joints
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Keep the record of products and locations with your fire safety documents
- Keep photos of seals that will be hidden
- Include hidden areas like risers in routine checks
- Get damaged fire seals looked at promptly
Tell other trades that the gaps have been sealed, and ask them to reseal anything they cut through. Later work is a common cause of damaged fire stopping.
Small gaps around services are simple to deal with while there are only a few. Leave them and each new job adds another hole.
