Fire rated sealant around Goddington
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. Many London buildings have tight access and loading restrictions, and out-of-hours working is possible to arrange.
Schools such as The Highway Primary School are buildings too, and service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment. Rented homes near Chelsfield station change hands often, and fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through. For buildings such as Christ Church, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.

Should I try it myself first?
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
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, then guaranteed for a year.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Goddington
We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order.
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy. Several properties can go on one quote.
How we quote for fire rated sealant
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- How easy the joints are to reach
- Which sealant suits the joint
- How much there is to do
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.
What we need to know
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- Whether it has been sealed before
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- How we’d reach the joints
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email

What happens on the day
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, just the space around the work. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access for a typical job. For a job in Goddington, parking and access are the things to plan: let us know about parking, the floor we’ll be working on and any lift or shared entrance.
- We start with the survey or action list, checking the size and surfaces of every gap.
- Old or unsuitable sealant is cut out and the gap cleaned.
- We put in whatever backing or fill the product detail specifies.
- The sealant goes in to the depth its detail sets, then it’s tooled off.
- We record the locations and products used for your records.

Your questions about fire rated sealant in Goddington
Do you cover Goddington for fire rated sealant?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Goddington is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
I let a flat near Chelsfield station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Do you carry out fire risk assessments?
No. Your fire risk assessor, designer or building control decides that. Our job is applying the sealant to their specification.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes, we can. More than one area can go on one quote.
What fire rating will the seal have?
We don’t issue ratings or certificates ourselves. What’s required is set by your assessor or designer, and the product’s tested details show what it achieves, and we install to them.
Can you give us a record of the work?
Yes. Locations and products are written up when we finish. If you need pictures or a set layout, ask when you get a quote.
Which products do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice, and we’ll explain our choice.
Can you work in occupied buildings?
Yes. We regularly work in flats, HMOs, schools and offices while they’re in use and we plan access around the people using them. Out-of-hours work can be arranged where it’s needed.
Aftercare tips
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Keep the record of products and locations with your fire safety documents
- Never patch a fire seal with standard sealant
- Take pictures of fire stopping before ceilings or boxing go back
- Report cracked or damaged seals as soon as you notice them
Tell other trades that the gaps have been sealed, and make sure anything they disturb is resealed with a suitable product. A lot of damaged fire stopping comes from later work.
Leave a fire-stopping gap open and smoke can move through the building much more easily. Sealing it early is a simple step to take.
How the job changes by surface
Service penetrations
Different services need different details: metal pipes, cables and plastic pipes are not treated the same. Each one is sealed to the product’s tested detail and we flag any that need another system.
Plasterboard walls
Many fire-resisting walls in flats, offices and conversions are plasterboard. The sealant has to be one tested in plasterboard for the gap we’re sealing.
Honest limits
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t solve:
- Assessing a building’s fire safety
- Walls or floors that weren’t built to resist fire
- Openings too large for sealant, which need batts, boards or another system
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.
