Fire rated sealant in Exton
Where services or frames pass through a fire-resisting wall or floor, the gap around them needs a fire-rated seal. We apply intumescent and fire-rated sealants to the manufacturer’s tested details for each gap, with a record of the products and locations if you need one. We work on linear gaps, service penetrations and plasterboard & masonry, and people most often call us about gaps filled with a product that isn’t fire-rated and unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall.
In a village or hamlet like Exton, 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.
Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order.
From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
DIY versus a professional finish
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
What we can’t put right
We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Fire doors that need new seals, closers or hardware
- Big openings where sealant alone is not the tested solution
- Sign-off of the building, which sits with building control or your assessor
If you are not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we seal
- Flats & HMOs
- Door frames
- Linear gaps
- Plasterboard & masonry
- Service penetrations
- Pipe & cable gaps

Why act early in Exton
Squirting in whichever sealant is nearest doesn’t make a fire seal. Fire-rated products are tested in set gap sizes, depths and substrates, which is why we match the product and the method to each gap. Around Exton, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
Why book with us
- Tidy, careful work
- Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme
- Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas
- Fully insured

How the visit works
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we’re doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. The work generally takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. Somewhere like Exton needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We begin by agreeing the list of gaps from your assessor’s or designer’s requirements.
- Each gap is measured and its substrate and service noted.
- Any non-fire-rated filler is removed and the gap cleaned.
- The specified fire-rated sealant goes in over any backing its detail requires.
- We hand over a list of locations and products.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Your questions about fire rated sealant in Exton
Can you do fire rated sealant in Exton?
Yes, Exton is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing.
What guarantee comes with fire rated sealant in Exton?
All our work, in Exton and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Is intumescent sealant the same as fire-rated sealant?
Fire-rated is the broad term for sealants tested for fire stopping. Intumescent ones swell in heat, and they’re one of the options. The specification and the tested detail decide which is used.
What information do you need?
Just the basics: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. After that, simply phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. We remove every bit of old sealant first, so the new joint bonds to clean surfaces.
How long does the job take?
That depends on the amount of work, but as a guide it takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. We will give you a better idea when we quote.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit.
Can I do it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
How the job changes by surface
Service penetrations
A copper pipe, a cable and a plastic pipe can all need different fire-stopping details. We follow the manufacturer’s tested detail for each and we flag any that need another system.
Plasterboard walls
Service holes in plasterboard are often rough and oversized. Where a hole is bigger than the sealant’s tested range, it needs another approach and we will flag it.
Workplaces and buildings in Exton
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.
If you look after a building such as Meonstoke Church of England Infant School, fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in. Community buildings like Church of St Peter and St Paul are part of the picture too: service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.
