Dunton: your questions answered
Is fire rated sealant in Dunton guaranteed?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Do you cover Dunton for fire rated sealant?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Dunton is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing.
Do you carry out fire risk assessments?
No. We follow the requirements from your assessor, designer or building control, and apply each product to its tested details.
Can you work in occupied buildings?
Yes, whether the building is a school, an office, flats or an HMO, and whether it’s in use or not. Let us know the building’s hours and we will plan the work to suit.
What’s the difference between intumescent and fire-rated sealant?
Fire-rated is the broad term for sealants tested for fire stopping. Intumescent types expand when heated, and they’re one of the options. We use whichever the specification and tested details call for.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. The old sealant always comes out first.
Do you provide details of the products used?
Yes. We note each location and the product that went in.

Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Dunton
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. We check the size and the substrate before choosing the product, then apply it to the depth its tested detail calls for. We work on service penetrations, pipe & cable gaps and plasterboard & masonry, and common reasons people get in touch are old fire sealant that has split or come away and gaps filled with a product that isn’t fire-rated.
If you have holiday lets, a converted barn used for business or a community building near Dunton, the washrooms, kitchens and any fire-rated joints need the same care as a big site.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
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.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
How the job changes by surface
Linear gaps
Gaps along the top of partitions are easy to miss above a ceiling. We seal them along their full length so there are no open sections left.
Door frames
A door can only do its job if the gap behind its frame is sealed too. We fill it with a fire-rated product suited to the materials either side.
Fire rated sealant around Dunton
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 work to the specification you are given, installing the product to its tested details.

What we do, step by step
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, just the space around the work. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are in most cases. Somewhere as small as Dunton, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We start with the survey or action list, checking the size and surfaces of every gap.
- Old or unsuitable sealant is cut out and the gap cleaned.
- Backing or fill is fitted where the product’s tested detail calls for 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.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the work
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

What affects the quote in Dunton
Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:
- The product the joint needs
- Whether the work is at height
- When we can work, for business premises
- How many areas need sealing
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference, and we will explain the quote if you ask.
Helping us quote
To make quoting easier, please include:
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- How we’d reach the joints
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- What’s wrong with the joints now
It all starts with a short chat. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is. When it suits you, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.
What we can’t put right
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’ll tell you before we start. Sealant won’t put right:
- Fire doors that need new seals, closers or hardware
- Big openings where sealant alone is not the tested solution
- Deciding what fire stopping a building needs
If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Why it’s worth doing now in Dunton
For some gaps, sealant is not the right answer and another system is needed. Large holes, cable bundles and plastic pipes can call for batts, collars or wraps. We’ll say so if a gap needs something other than sealant. Around Dunton, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
The cost depends on how much there is to do, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
What you get with us
- One-year guarantee on every job
- Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
- Fully insured

Common problems we fix in Dunton
Many open fire-stopping gaps are made after the building is finished. New cables, pipes and data runs go through walls and ceilings and the hole they leave doesn’t always get resealed.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Fire stopping disturbed by later work
- Gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs
- Open holes round services passing through fire walls
- Open gaps behind door architraves
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of St Martin, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.
