Fire rated sealant in Fittleworth

Fire rated sealant in Fittleworth, done properly

In flats, HMOs, offices and schools, fire stopping is often disturbed by later work. One new cable or pipe can leave a gap that nobody goes back to seal. Those are the gaps we close, using a tested fire-rated product. We work on flats & HMOs, pipe & cable gaps and plasterboard & masonry, and people most often call us about old fire sealant that has split or come away and open holes round services passing through fire walls.

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

You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything is not right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Why it’s worth doing now in Fittleworth

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

Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.

Commercial buildings in Fittleworth

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, 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.

If you let a flat or house near Pulborough station, new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant. If you look after a building such as Fittleworth CofE Village School, fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in. For buildings such as The Parish Church of St Mary, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.

Aftercare tips

So the new joints stay in good condition:

  • Photograph sealed gaps before they’re covered up
  • Store the list of sealed gaps with your building paperwork
  • Allow for resealing whenever new services are run
  • Include hidden areas like risers in routine checks

File the record of locations and products with your fire safety paperwork. It helps whoever checks the building next.

Small gaps around services are simple to deal with while there are only a few. Leave them and each new job adds another hole and the list grows.

How the job changes by surface

Door frames

Frame gaps are normally hidden behind the architrave. Where it’s open, we seal it to the product’s details for that gap size.

Plasterboard walls

Plasterboard partitions are common in flats, offices and conversions. We use a product tested in that kind of wall for the gap we are sealing.

What sealant work cannot fix

In fairness, some problems need a different trade:

  • Issuing a fire rating or certificate for a building
  • Openings too large for sealant, which need batts, boards or another system
  • Problems with the door itself rather than the gap around the frame

If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we seal

  • Pipe & cable gaps
  • Door frames
  • Service penetrations
  • Flats & HMOs
  • Linear gaps
  • Plasterboard & masonry

DIY versus a professional finish

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

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.

How the visit works

A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, do the work and tidy away. It usually takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. In a small place like Fittleworth, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We go through the gaps on your list or survey and check each one’s size and substrate.
  2. Anything that is not fit for the job comes out, and the gap is cleaned.
  3. We put in whatever backing or fill the product detail specifies.
  4. We apply the fire-rated or intumescent sealant to the specified depth and tool it.
  5. We record the locations and products used for your records.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any tricky access
  • On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
  • Clear the area around the work
