Aftercare tips
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Get damaged fire seals looked at promptly
- Store the list of sealed gaps with your building paperwork
- Plan fire stopping into any work that goes through walls or floors
- Look in service cupboards and ceiling voids from time to time
Avoid covering a sealed gap with anything that is not part of the tested detail. Repairs should use a matching fire-rated product. We can tell you which product we used.
A flagged gap shouldn’t wait for the next assessment. Get it sealed and recorded so you can show it was dealt with.
Fire rated sealant in Folly Town
Bigger jobs can be worked through in stages, flat by flat or floor by floor. That record is useful for your files and for whoever looks at the building next. If you’re dealing with joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey and open holes round services passing through fire walls, we can help.
In a village or hamlet like Folly Town, commercial work is more likely to be a pub, a farm shop, holiday lets or a village hall than an office block. Each still needs sound sealant in its washrooms and kitchens, and fire-rated joints where services pass through walls.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Why act early in Folly Town
Fire-rated sealants are less forgiving than ordinary ones. Depth, backing and surface preparation all affect how a seal performs, so we follow the maker’s details on every gap. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Folly Town, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
Why us?
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
- Every job guaranteed for a year
- Full insurance on every job
- Tidy, careful work

Signs you need fire rated sealant in Folly Town
In some buildings the gap was filled with the wrong thing in the first place: ordinary expanding foam, standard silicone or decorators’ caulk in a place that needed a tested fire seal. It looks sealed, but it isn’t fire-rated.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Damaged fire sealant left by other trades
- Old fire sealant that has split or come away
- Gaps left after a refit or conversion
- Gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls
Rented homes near Wye station change hands often, and any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.

What else we do in Folly Town
What fire rated sealant looks like in Folly Town
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 church, hall or community building such as Church of St Mary, older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking. Schools such as Wye School are buildings too, and gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices.

Advice
What affects the cost of fire rated sealant
There’s no set price list. The quote depends on:
- Working hours on commercial sites
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- The number and length of the joints
- How many areas need sealing
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask about the job first and give you a clear price before any work starts.
What to tell us for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Where the property is
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or send an email if you’d rather. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we’ll talk you through the work.
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, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
