Frithend questions
Is Frithend in your area for fire rated sealant?
Yes, Frithend is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Bentley (Hampshire) station?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Can you work in occupied buildings?
Yes. Occupied flats, HMOs, offices and schools are all fine and we plan access around the people using them. Out-of-hours work can be arranged if that suits the building.
Can you tell me how many minutes the seal will last?
That is not something we state or certify. Your specification sets the requirement, and we apply a product tested for it with a record of each location.
Can I use normal mastic around a pipe through a fire wall?
No. A gap that needs fire stopping needs a tested fire-rated product fitted to the maker’s details.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured.
How long does fire rated sealant take?
Most jobs take a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building, including the preparation. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
What does intumescent mean?
Intumescent describes a material that swells in heat. Intumescent sealants are a type of fire-rated sealant.
Fire rated sealant in Frithend, done properly
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. We are often asked to deal with door frames with gaps between frame and wall and joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey, across plasterboard & masonry, pipe & cable gaps and service penetrations.
Work in a small place like Frithend is planned ahead, journey included, so the job can fit around bookings, guests or opening times where possible.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee, so you are covered after we’ve gone.

Why it’s worth doing now in Frithend
Items left open on a fire risk assessment tend to come back at the next review. Having them sealed and recorded now gives you evidence that the item was dealt with. Around Frithend, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You’ll know the price before we begin.

Fire rated sealant in Frithend: local notes
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 work to the specification you are given, installing the product to its tested details.
Rented homes near Bentley (Hampshire) station change hands often, and fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Ask every contractor to reseal any fire stopping they disturb
- Look in service cupboards and ceiling voids from time to time
- File the fire-stopping record where your assessor can find it
- Do not fill fire-stopping gaps with ordinary foam or silicone
Keep the record we give you with the building’s fire safety documents. It helps whoever checks the building next.
An open gap is not only a fire issue: noise, draughts and even pests can come through too. Sealing them early helps on every front.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:
- Sign-off of the building, which sits with building control or your assessor
- Assessing a building’s fire safety
- A wall that is not a fire-resisting element to begin with
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Common problems we fix in Frithend
Gaps also open up as buildings move: a seal that cracks or pulls away leaves a path for smoke. Damage from cleaning, knocks and maintenance adds to it.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Door frames with gaps between frame and wall
- Fire seals that have cracked with movement
- Fire stopping disturbed by later work
- Gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment
For buildings such as The Church Of The Good Shepherd, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.

What the job involves on each surface
Plasterboard walls
Holes in plasterboard are often cut roughly for services. Where a hole is bigger than the sealant’s tested range, it needs another approach.
Service penetrations
Different services need different details: metal pipes, cables and plastic pipes aren’t treated the same. We follow the manufacturer’s tested detail for each.
