Fire rated sealant in East Molesey
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 detail is what we take care over, one gap at a time. If you have fire seals that have cracked with movement and joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey, we can help, on plasterboard & masonry, door frames and service penetrations alike.
For a pub, café, guest house or shop in or near East Molesey, the washrooms and kitchen need the same attention as a big site.
All our work comes with a 12-month guarantee.

The process
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we are doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work starts. The work normally takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. A visit to East Molesey is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- We begin by agreeing the list of gaps from your assessor’s or designer’s requirements.
- We measure every gap and note what it’s in and what passes through.
- Any non-fire-rated filler is removed and the faces cleaned.
- We fit backing where needed and apply the fire-rated sealant to depth.
- We hand over a list of locations and products.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

East Molesey questions
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Hampton Court station?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before work begins.
Will you come out to East Molesey?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
In most cases you can choose. We will tell you which colours the right product comes in.
Is intumescent sealant the same as fire-rated sealant?
Fire-rated sealant covers any sealant tested for use in fire stopping. Intumescent ones swell in heat, and they’re one of the options. We use whichever the specification and tested details call for.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes. All our work carries our 12-month guarantee.
Is there any odour?
That depends on the sealant. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little, and any smell fades as they cure.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned.
What information do you need?
A short description and the location, with photos by email if possible. We’ll ask anything else we need to know.
Do you need fire rated sealant in East Molesey?
A lot of fire stopping is out of sight: in ceiling voids, service risers and behind boxing. Out of view, damage sits unnoticed until someone inspects.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Damaged fire sealant left by other trades
- Unsealed gaps around fire door frames
- Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
- Gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs
Managing a site like The Orchard Infant School? Then gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices.

Why it’s worth doing now in East Molesey
Paying for fire stopping that has to be redone is a false economy. If the details weren’t followed, the seal may need redoing when the building is next checked. In an older home around East Molesey, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, and that is a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before work begins, so you know where you stand.
Why book with us
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
- Tidy, careful work
- Trusted Arbo and Everbuild sealants
- Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels

Workplaces and buildings in East Molesey
Workplaces and the common parts of blocks of flats in England need a fire risk assessment under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, 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. East Molesey has hotels and guest accommodation in and around it. Hotel work can be planned room by room, with out-of-hours working where needed.
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of St Mary, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building. Rented homes near Hampton Court station change hands often, and any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.

Different surfaces, different methods
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 room by room.
Plasterboard walls
Many fire-resisting walls in flats, offices and conversions are plasterboard. We use a product tested in that kind of wall for the gap we’re sealing.
When something else is needed
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- Fire risk assessments, which need a qualified assessor
- Problems with the door itself rather than the gap around the frame
- Sign-off of the building, which sits with building control or your assessor
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will say what we think.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
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.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, 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.
