Looking after it afterwards
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Look in service cupboards and ceiling voids from time to time
- Take pictures of fire stopping before ceilings or boxing go back
- Keep general-purpose foam and caulk away from fire-stopping gaps
- Flag any open gap you spot round a pipe or cable
Let contractors know where fire stopping has been done, and make sure anything they disturb is resealed with a suitable product. A lot of damaged fire stopping comes from later work.
An open gap is not only a fire issue: noise, draughts and even pests can come through too. Dealing with them early helps with all of these.
Fire rated sealant in Filmore Hill
Later work by other trades often breaks through fire stopping, especially in flats, HMOs, offices and schools. One new cable or pipe can leave a gap that nobody goes back to seal. We seal them with a product tested for that kind of gap. Common call-outs are for unsealed gaps around fire door frames and open joints along the top of partitions, across pipe & cable gaps, plasterboard & masonry and flats & HMOs.
If you have holiday lets, a converted barn used for business or a community building near Filmore Hill, washroom and kitchen sealant and any fire-rated joints need the same attention as anywhere.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after we’ve gone.

Commercial buildings in Filmore Hill
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.
For buildings such as Holy Trinity Church, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there. Around Filmore Hill, as everywhere, fire rated sealant is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Should I try it myself first?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
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.
How it works
On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. For a village or hamlet like Filmore Hill, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- Before starting, we go through the specification or action list with you.
- Each gap is measured and its substrate and service noted.
- Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out and the gap cleaned.
- We fit backing where needed and apply the fire-rated sealant to depth.
- Every location is recorded with the product used.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Mention any tricky access

Advice
What the job involves on each surface
Linear gaps
A linear joint may need to allow for movement as well as fire. The product and depth are chosen to suit both.
Door frames
The gap between a door frame and the wall around it needs sealing as well as the door itself. We seal that gap with a fire-rated sealant suited to the frame and wall.
Quotes for fire rated sealant in Filmore Hill
For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:
- The product the joint needs
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- How many areas need sealing
- Mould in or behind the old joints
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
Helping us quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- The address or postcode of the job
- Whether it has been sealed before
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
Quotes start with a quick conversation. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we will talk you through what we’d do. When it suits you, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Why it’s worth doing now in Filmore Hill
Items left open on a fire risk assessment tend to come back at the next review. Getting them done and written up means you can show the action was taken. Around Filmore Hill, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

FAQs for Filmore Hill
Is fire rated sealant in Filmore Hill guaranteed?
Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever it is. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Is Filmore Hill within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
What does fire rated sealant cost?
Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. For a quick quote, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a short description of the job.
Is it messy?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No, and we never do. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
Will we have a record of what was sealed?
Yes. Every gap we seal is listed with the product used.
Is intumescent sealant the same as fire-rated sealant?
An intumescent sealant expands when it gets hot. It’s one type of fire-rated sealant; which product suits depends on the gap, the substrate and the service.
What fire rating will the seal have?
We do not issue ratings or certificates ourselves. What’s required is set by your assessor or designer, and the product’s tested details show what it achieves, and we install to them.
