Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Dyer's End
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 are often asked to deal with seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers and sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list, across flats & HMOs, door frames and plasterboard & masonry.
Work in a small place like Dyer's End is planned ahead, journey included, so the job can fit around bookings, guests or opening times where possible.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

When it is not the sealant
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we will tell you before we start. It will not solve:
- Problems with the door itself rather than the gap around the frame
- Fire risk assessments, which need a qualified assessor
- Certifying a building or signing off its fire safety
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think.

What the job involves on each surface
Linear gaps
Long, narrow gaps appear where walls meet slabs and ceilings. We seal them to the tested detail, with backing where it’s needed.
Flats and HMOs
Conversions generally leave a mix of old and new service holes. The gaps on your list are sealed with a fire-rated product and record where they are.
Leave it or put it right?
An unsealed gap lets smoke and fire get round a wall that was built to hold them back. Sealing it properly restores what the wall was there to do, and the work involved is often modest. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Dyer's End, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.

- Mould in or behind the old joints
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.
What we need to know
When you contact us, these details help:
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Whether it has been sealed before
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- The type of property
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints.
Can I do it myself?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Workplaces and buildings in Dyer's End
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’re given, installing the product to its tested details.
Around Dyer's End, as everywhere, fire rated sealant is only as good as the preparation behind it. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Parish Church of St Peter and St Thomas, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.

Related advice
Keeping the joints in good condition
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Allow for resealing whenever new services are run
- Never patch a fire seal with standard sealant
- Flag any open gap you spot round a pipe or cable
- Check whether a sealant can be painted before decorating over it
Leave the sealant to cure fully before painting near it. Some fire-rated sealants can be painted and some can’t.
Open gaps don’t only matter in a fire: they also let noise, draughts and sometimes pests through. Dealing with them early helps with all of these.
