Fire Rated Sealant in Frindsbury
Our applicators work in Frindsbury on intumescent and fire-rated sealant around gaps, frames and service penetrations. Old material cut out, joints cleaned and sealed neatly and a one-year guarantee.
- Joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey
- Ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed
- Gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls
How we handle fire rated sealant in Frindsbury
Ordinary silicone or decorators’ caulk in a fire-stopping gap is not a fire-rated seal. We cut out the wrong material and reseal with a fire-rated product tested for that kind of gap. If you have unsealed gaps around fire door frames and new service routes left unsealed after building work, we can put it right.
In a smaller place like Frindsbury, commercial jobs tend to be smaller buildings: a pub, a surgery, a school, a shop or a few business units. The work is the same as in a big building, just on a smaller scale.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we’ll give you a quote.
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. Several properties can go on one quote.
How to look after the new joints
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Include hidden areas like risers in routine checks
- Include fire stopping when you schedule refits
- Flag any open gap you spot round a pipe or cable
- Tell trades working in the building that fire seals must be put back
Include fire stopping in your regular building checks. Look for cracks, gaps or sealant that has been cut or pulled out and get them seen to.
If a fire risk assessment has flagged a gap, don’t leave it for the next one. Get it sealed and recorded so the item can be closed.
Different surfaces, different methods
Masonry and concrete
Brick, block and concrete walls and floors are sealed with products tested in masonry. The gap is cleaned of dust first so the sealant bonds.
Service penetrations
Different services need different details: metal pipes, cables and plastic pipes are not treated the same. We follow the manufacturer’s tested detail for each, and tell you if sealant alone is not the right fix.

DIY versus a professional finish

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again.
