Fire rated sealant in Frogmore

What happens on the day

Once we are on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. Somewhere like Frogmore needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  1. We go through the gaps on your list or survey and check each one’s size and substrate.
  2. Anything that isn’t fit for the job comes out, and the gap is cleaned.
  3. Where the tested detail needs backing or fill, we fit it.
  4. We apply the fire-rated or intumescent sealant to the specified depth and tool it.
  5. Locations and products are noted so you have them on file.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

Fire rated sealant in Frogmore

Filling a fire-stopping gap with standard silicone or caulk doesn’t make it fire-rated. Anything unsuitable comes out first and reseal with a fire-rated product tested for that kind of gap. Common call-outs are for fire seals that have cracked with movement and open joints along the top of partitions, on flats & HMOs, pipe & cable gaps and linear gaps.

For a small place like Frogmore, the journey and timings are agreed in advance, so it can be fitted around guests, clients or events where possible.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

Should I try it myself first?

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.

If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.

Do you need fire rated sealant in Frogmore?

Sometimes the wrong product was used from the start: general-purpose foam, everyday silicone or caulk where a fire-rated seal was needed. It looks sealed, but it is not fire-rated.

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

  • Fire seals that have cracked with movement
  • Holes left by a change of layout
  • Joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey
  • Unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall

Managing a site like Park Street Church of England Voluntary Aided Primary School? Then fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.

How to choose a mastic man

What happens if it’s left?

If an assessor has flagged gaps, it makes sense to close them before the next review. Getting them done and written up means you can show the action was taken. Around Frogmore, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.

How we quote for fire rated sealant

We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
  • Any working-time requirements on site
  • The number and length of the joints
  • Access and height

What it costs depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.

What to tell us for a quote

Photos help, but a description is a good start. Please mention:

  • If someone has resealed it before
  • The rough size of the job
  • Where the job is, and your postcode
  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking

The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is, and add photos by email if you can.

What sealant work can’t fix

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:

  • 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
  • Fire doors that need new seals, closers or hardware

If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think before booking.

  • Service penetrations
  • Flats & HMOs

What fire rating will the seal have?

Commercial buildings in Frogmore

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, which is often where open fire-stopping gaps are first noticed. 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 the Holy Trinity, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there. If you let a flat or house near How Wood station, new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant.
