Fire rated sealant in Elsted Marsh

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Ask which product was used before you paint
  • Flag any open gap you spot round a pipe or cable
  • Look in service cupboards and ceiling voids from time to time
  • Keep pictures of seals that will be hidden

Let contractors know where fire stopping has been done, and ask them to reseal anything they cut through. Later work is a common cause of damaged fire stopping.

Open gaps do not only matter in a fire: noise, draughts and even pests can come through too. Sealing them early helps on every front.

About our fire rated sealant in Elsted Marsh

Bigger jobs can be worked through in stages, flat by flat or floor by floor, with each location and product recorded. That record is useful for your files and for whoever looks at the building next. We work on plasterboard & masonry, pipe & cable gaps and service penetrations, and common reasons people get in touch are old fire sealant that has split or come away and new service routes left unsealed after building work.

For holiday lets, converted business premises or a community building near Elsted Marsh, washroom and kitchen sealant and any fire-rated joints need the same attention as anywhere.

All our work comes with a 12-month guarantee.

Quotes for fire rated sealant in Elsted Marsh

Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Which sealant suits the joint

How it works

There’s no need to move everything out, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access for a typical job. In a small place like Elsted Marsh, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. We begin by agreeing the list of gaps from your assessor’s or designer’s requirements.
  2. Each gap is measured and its substrate and service noted.
  3. Any non-fire-rated filler is removed and the faces cleaned.
  4. We fit backing where needed and apply the fire-rated sealant to depth.
  5. We hand over a list of locations and products for your files.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Why act early in Elsted Marsh

Items left open on a fire risk assessment tend to come back at the next review. Having them sealed and recorded now gives you evidence that the item was dealt with. Older cottages and farmhouses around Elsted Marsh can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re unsure, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

Can I do it myself?

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, 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.

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.

Your questions about fire rated sealant in Elsted Marsh

What guarantee comes with fire rated sealant in Elsted Marsh?

Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.

Can you do fire rated sealant in Elsted Marsh?

Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Elsted Marsh is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.

Do you seal gaps around fire door frames?

Yes. We seal the gap between the frame and the wall with a suitable fire-rated product following the tested details. The door, its seals and closer are for a door specialist.

Is there any odour?

Some sealants have a smell while they cure, but it fades. Opening a window helps.

What’s the difference between intumescent and fire-rated sealant?

An intumescent material expands when it’s heated. Intumescent sealants are a type of fire-rated sealant, and the choice depends on the gap.

Will you assess my building’s fire safety?

No, assessment isn’t something we do. Once you have a specification or action list from your assessor or designer, we will quote for the sealant work on it.

Is it worth trying it myself?

Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.

Do I need to be at home?

Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.

Different surfaces, different methods

Service penetrations

Wherever a service goes through a fire-resisting wall or floor, there’s a gap around it. The sealant is chosen for what passes through and how wide the gap is.

Flats and HMOs

In occupied buildings, we plan the order of work with you. Access to flats and common areas is agreed in advance to keep disruption down.
