When something else is needed
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t solve:
- A wall that is not a fire-resisting element to begin with
- Doors that are not fire doors in the first place
- Sign-off of the building, which sits with building control or your assessor
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we seal
- Flats & HMOs
- Service penetrations
- Linear gaps
- Door frames

- Pipe & cable gaps
Fire rated sealant in Goosey
A gap around a door frame, a linear joint at the head of a wall and a hole round a pipe are each sealed differently. We check the size and the substrate before choosing the product, then apply it to the depth its tested detail calls for. We work on plasterboard & masonry, door frames and service penetrations, and people most often call us about holes left by a change of layout and seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers.
For holiday lets, converted business premises or a community building near Goosey, washroom and kitchen sealant and any fire-rated joints need the same attention as anywhere.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after we’ve gone.

Signs you need fire rated sealant in Goosey
Sealant applied too thin, without the backing its detail needs, or onto dust won’t perform as it was tested. Rushed fire stopping is common, especially where it was squeezed in at the end of a project.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Unsealed gaps around fire door frames
- Gaps left after a refit or conversion
- Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
- Cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant
In and around Goosey, as anywhere, good fire rated sealant starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Your questions about fire rated sealant in Goosey
Do you cover Goosey for fire rated sealant?
Yes, Goosey is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Will you come out to Goosey?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Does someone need to be in?
We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that usually means someone at home.
Can I do it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
How much does fire rated sealant cost in Goosey?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.
Will we have a record of what was sealed?
Yes. Every gap we seal is listed with the product used, so you have it on file.
Will there be a smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure. Opening a window helps.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes. Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee.
What happens on the day
The work is kept neat and contained to the area we are working on. The job normally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. In a small place like Goosey, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We plan the order of work and access, floor by floor or flat by flat.
- Old, damaged or unsuitable sealant is removed.
- Dust and loose debris are cleaned from each gap.
- We apply and tool the sealant to the product’s tested detail.
- We record what was done and flag anything that needs a different system.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

DIY versus a professional finish
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
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, then guaranteed for a year.
Workplaces and buildings in Goosey
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 work to the specification you’re given, installing the product to its tested details.
For buildings such as Church of All Saints, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.

Aftercare tips
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Photograph sealed gaps before they’re covered up
- Never patch a fire seal with standard sealant
- Keep the record of products and locations with your fire safety documents
- Plan fire stopping into any work that goes through walls or floors
Do not add foam, filler or ordinary sealant over a fire seal. If it needs repair, use the same type of product. We can tell you which product we used.
A gap left open in a fire-resisting wall or floor lets smoke spread in ways the building wasn’t designed for. Sealing it early is a simple step to take.
What happens if it’s left?
Fire-rated sealants need more care than everyday sealant. How it’s installed changes how it performs, and we work to the product details every time. Older cottages and farmhouses around Goosey can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs. Call for a quick quote and we’ll go through it with you.
