About our fire rated sealant in Ellen's Green
Landlords, managing agents and facilities teams use us for the sealant items on a fire risk assessment on buildings across Ellen's Green. Send us the list or the survey and we will quote for the fire-rated sealant work on it. We work on plasterboard & masonry, flats & HMOs and pipe & cable gaps, and the jobs we see most are open joints along the top of partitions and open holes round services passing through fire walls.
Somewhere as small as Ellen's Green, commercial jobs tend to be pubs, holiday lets, farm buildings or halls rather than offices. Each still needs sound sealant in its washrooms and kitchens, and fire-rated joints where services pass through walls.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

How it works
At the end, we look at the finished work together and tell you how long to leave it. The visit itself normally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are, depending on the size of the job. For a village or hamlet like Ellen's Green, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We go through the gaps on your list or survey and check each one’s size and substrate.
- We remove any old or unsuitable filler and clean the gap.
- We put in whatever backing or fill the product detail specifies.
- We apply the fire-rated or intumescent sealant to the specified depth and tool it.
- We record the locations and products used for your records.
How to prepare
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Tell us if parking is tricky

Advice
Commercial buildings in Ellen's Green
Workplaces and the common parts of blocks of flats in England need a fire risk assessment under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, 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.
In and around Ellen's Green, as anywhere, good fire rated sealant starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

DIY versus a professional finish
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
How to look after the new joints
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks
- Flag any open gap you spot round a pipe or cable
- Check whether a sealant can be painted before decorating over it
- Ask every contractor to reseal any fire stopping they disturb
Any fire seal that is cut or drilled needs resealing to its tested detail. If you need new services through a sealed wall, plan the fire stopping as part of the job.
An open gap is not only a fire issue: they also let noise, draughts and sometimes pests through. Dealing with them early helps with all of these.
Why it’s worth doing now in Ellen's Green
Items left open on a fire risk assessment tend to come back at the next review. Having them sealed and recorded now means you can show the action was taken. Older cottages and farmhouses around Ellen's Green can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

When something else is needed
We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:
- Large holes that need a different fire-stopping system
- Issuing a fire rating or certificate for a building
- Problems with the door itself rather than the gap around the frame
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What the job involves on each surface
Service penetrations
Service penetrations are where new gaps often appear. Old or unsuitable filler comes out before the right sealant goes in over any backing the detail calls for.
Masonry and concrete
Preparation counts on brick, block and concrete. We brush and vacuum the gap and use backing where the detail needs it.
Signs you need fire rated sealant in Ellen's Green
Buildings are refitted and reconfigured over the years. Conversions to flats and HMOs, and office refits, create new walls and new routes for services, with gaps to match.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
- Door frames with gaps between frame and wall
- Open joints along the top of partitions
- Holes left by a change of layout
Rented homes near Warnham station change hands often, and any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.
