Fire rated sealant for East End homes and businesses

Why act early in East End

Doing it once, properly, beats doing it twice. If the details weren’t followed, the seal may need redoing when the building is next checked. Older cottages and farmhouses around East End can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

The cost depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before we start, so you know where you stand.

How we handle fire rated sealant in East End

Deciding which gaps need fire stopping is not our role; that comes from your fire risk assessor, designer or building control. Our part is applying the specified sealant carefully, to the right depth and with the right backing. If you have seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers and gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment, we can put it right, whatever the surface.

In a village or hamlet like East End, commercial work is more likely to be a pub, a farm shop, holiday lets or a village hall than an office block. They all have washrooms, kitchens and service openings that need the right sealant.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

The process

Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we do not rush it. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. In total, it usually takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. In a small place like East End, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. Before starting, we go through the specification or action list with you.
  2. Each gap is measured and its substrate and service noted.
  3. Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out and the gap cleaned.
  4. We fit backing where needed and apply the fire-rated sealant to depth.
  5. Every location is recorded with the product used for your files.

How to prepare

  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

What affects the quote in East End

The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:

  • The type of sealant required
  • When we can work, for business premises
  • The number of rooms or windows
  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out

A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re unsure, call 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.

What to tell us for a quote

Photos help, but a description is a good start. Please mention:

  • If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • If someone has resealed it before
  • Roughly how big the job is

Call for a quick quote, or email us if that is easier. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we will explain what’s involved before giving you a price.

Workplaces and buildings in East End

If you run a hotel, guest house or holiday let in a coastal place like East End, heavy use in the busy months is hard on washroom and kitchen sealant, and any building work there should leave fire-rated joints made good. 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 apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details.

For buildings such as Church of St Mary, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as South Baddesley Church of England Primary School, service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.

Do you need fire rated sealant in East End?

Sealant applied too thin, without the backing its detail needs, or onto dust won’t perform as it was tested. Rushed fire stopping is common.

The problems people normally mention when they call are:

  • Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
  • Unsealed gaps around fire door frames
  • Gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls
  • Gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment

If you let a flat or house near Lymington Pier station, fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through.

10 questions to ask before you book

What the job involves on each surface

Plasterboard walls

Holes in plasterboard are often cut roughly for services. Where a hole is bigger than the sealant’s tested range, it needs another approach.

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, flat by flat if needed.

Can I do it myself?

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.

Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
