About our fire rated sealant in Five Oak Green
We don’t assess buildings or decide what fire stopping is needed; your assessor, designer or building control sets that out. What we do is apply the right product to that specification, properly and neatly. Typical jobs include unsealed gaps around fire door frames and fire seals that have cracked with movement, across service penetrations, linear gaps and door frames.
For a small place like Five Oak Green, the journey and timings are agreed in advance, so it can be fitted around guests, customers or events where possible.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

Workplaces and buildings in Five Oak Green
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.
Community buildings like Five Oak Green Church are part of the picture too: older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking. Schools such as Capel Primary School are buildings too, and gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices.

What else we do in Five Oak Green
What affects the cost of fire rated sealant
For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- The type of sealant required
- Access and height
- How many areas need sealing
Combining jobs into one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.
What we need to know
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- How we’d reach the joints
- Where the job is, and your postcode
Call for a quick quote, or send an email if you’d rather. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we’ll explain what’s involved.
Leave it or put it right?
For some gaps, sealant isn’t the right answer and another system is needed. Large holes, cable bundles and plastic pipes can call for batts, collars or wraps. If a gap is not suitable for sealant, we’ll tell you. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Five Oak Green, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
What you get with us
- Fully insured
- 12-month guarantee on every job
- Homes, businesses and hotels
- Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme

Do you need fire rated sealant in Five Oak Green?
Movement in the structure can open gaps too: cracked or debonded sealant leaves an open route through the wall. Damage from cleaning, knocks and maintenance adds to it.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Unsealed gaps around fire door frames
- Holes left by a change of layout
- Open joints along the top of partitions
- Fire seals that have cracked with movement
Rented homes near Paddock Wood station change hands often, and any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.
What your quote should include
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- What the cure time is
- Whether they’re fully insured

Five Oak Green: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords with property near Paddock Wood station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Five Oak Green?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Is it messy?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.
Can you tell me how many minutes the seal will last?
Ratings and certificates are not something we issue. What’s required is set by your assessor or designer, and the product’s tested details show what it achieves.
Is standard sealant good enough for a fire gap?
No. It might close the gap, but it isn’t a fire-rated seal. A tested fire-rated product is needed.
What sealant do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we will tell you what we are using.
Is intumescent sealant the same as fire-rated sealant?
An intumescent sealant expands when it gets hot, helping close the gap. Intumescent sealants are one kind of fire-rated sealant; the right one depends on the gap and what passes through it.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes. There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.
Different surfaces, different methods
Linear gaps
A linear joint may need to allow for movement as well as fire. We choose a product and depth that suit the gap and the movement from the manufacturer’s details.
Masonry and concrete
Brick, block and concrete walls and floors are sealed with products tested in masonry. We clean out dust and debris before sealing so the seal has something sound to bond to.
When it is not the sealant
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- A wall that isn’t a fire-resisting element to begin with
- Sign-off of the building, which sits with building control or your assessor
- Openings too large for sealant, which need batts, boards or another system
If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
