About our fire rated sealant in East Langdon
Fire stopping only performs as intended if it’s done to the detail: the right depth, the right backing and the right product for the substrate. That’s the part we focus on. If you have linear gaps at the head of walls and unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Work in a small place like East Langdon is planned ahead, journey included, so the job can fit around bookings, guests or opening times where possible.
A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

When it isn’t the sealant
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:

- Large holes that need a different fire-stopping system
- Fire doors that need new seals, closers or hardware
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think.

Commercial buildings in East Langdon
If you run a hotel, guest house or holiday let in a coastal place like East Langdon, busy months put washrooms and kitchens under pressure, so it’s worth checking the sealant before the busiest weeks. 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 apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details.
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of St Augustine, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building. Letting a property close to Martin Mill station? Then any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.

Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before applying anything new.
Is standard sealant good enough for a fire gap?
No. Standard sealants aren’t made or tested to stop fire. We cut it out and reseal with a fire-rated product.
Do you carry out fire risk assessments?
No. We follow the requirements from your assessor, designer or building control.
Where do you work from?
We are a Crawley-based firm. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Will we have a record of what was sealed?
Yes. We record the locations we have sealed and the products used.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured, and we’ve been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
Keeping the joints in good condition
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Tell trades working in the building that fire seals must be put back
- Flag any open gap you spot round a pipe or cable
- Never patch a fire seal with standard sealant
- Keep pictures of seals that will be hidden
Tell other trades that the gaps have been sealed, and make sure anything they disturb is resealed with a suitable product. Later work is a common cause of damaged fire stopping.
Leave a fire-stopping gap open and smoke can move through the building much more easily. Sealing it early is a simple step to take.
Signs you need fire rated sealant in East Langdon
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 when they notice something like this:
- Gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment
- Cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant
- Gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs
- New service routes left unsealed after building work
If you look after a building such as Langdon Primary School, gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices.
