About our fire rated sealant in Frogham
Deciding which gaps need fire stopping isn’t our role; that comes from your fire risk assessor, designer or building control. What we do is apply the right product to that specification, properly and neatly. Typical jobs include gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls and fire seals that have cracked with movement, across service penetrations, linear gaps and pipe & cable gaps.
Work in a small place like Frogham is planned ahead, journey included, so the job can fit around bookings, guests or opening times where possible.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee.

Signs you need fire rated sealant in Frogham
Many open fire-stopping gaps are made after the building is finished. New cables, pipes and data runs go through walls and ceilings and the hole they leave does not always get resealed.
The problems people generally mention when they call are:
- Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
- Unsealed gaps around fire door frames
- Old fire sealant that has split or come away
- Gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs
Schools such as Nonington Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices.

Common questions in Frogham
Do you cover smaller places like Frogham?
Yes. Frogham is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
I let a flat near Snowdown station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Is it worth trying it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
Do you take on fire stopping in schools and offices?
Yes, in flats, HMOs, schools, offices and other buildings, occupied or empty. Tell us how the building is used and we will plan around it.
What information do you need?
A short description and the location, plus pictures if you have them. If we need more, we’ll ask.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We’re fully insured for domestic and commercial work.
Will there be a smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, but it fades. Opening a window helps.
Will you leave a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. Nearby surfaces are protected, and the area is left clean when we finish.
When it isn’t the sealant
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we will tell you before we start. It won’t solve:
- Sign-off of the building, which sits with building control or your assessor
- Doors that are not fire doors in the first place
- Fire risk assessments, which need a qualified assessor
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly.

What happens on the day
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we are treating. The job generally takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building, and we explain the cure time before we leave. Somewhere as small as Frogham, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First we work through your list or survey, measuring each gap and checking what it’s formed in.
- Old or unsuitable sealant is cut out and the gap cleaned.
- Backing or fill is fitted where the product’s tested detail calls for it.
- Fire-rated or intumescent sealant is applied to the right depth and tooled.
- Finally, we list where we worked and what we used, for your records.
Before we arrive
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Let us know about parking restrictions

Fire rated sealant in Frogham: local notes
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.
Letting a property close to Snowdown station? Then fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of St Nicholas, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.

Why act early in Frogham
A quick fill with any sealant to hand is not fire stopping. A fire-rated product only performs as tested when it’s installed to its tested detail, which is why we match the product and the method to each gap. Around Frogham, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Doing several joints on one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We’ll send you a clear quote for the lot.
