How we handle fire rated sealant in Great Wymondley

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 the sealant goes in to the depth the product’s details set. Typical jobs include seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers and standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap, across door frames, linear gaps and plasterboard & masonry.

Somewhere as small as Great Wymondley, commercial jobs tend to be pubs, holiday lets, farm buildings or halls rather than offices. They all have washrooms, kitchens and service openings that need the right sealant.

All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

Landlord and commercial work in Great Wymondley

For anyone letting property in or around Great Wymondley, jobs at different addresses can go on one quote. Send us the addresses and the work at each, and photos by email help.

Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.

The process

Once we are on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. Somewhere as small as Great Wymondley, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We go through the gaps on your list or survey and check each one’s size and substrate.
  2. We remove any old or unsuitable filler and clean the gap.
  3. Backing or fill is fitted where the product’s tested detail calls for it.
  4. Fire-rated or intumescent sealant is applied to the right depth and tooled.
  5. Locations and products are noted so you have them on file.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
  • Tell us about any water getting in

Advice

Quotes for fire rated sealant in Great Wymondley

Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Access and height
  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • Any mould that needs treating
  • The product the joint needs

Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.

Asking for a quote

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:

  • The address or postcode of the job
  • What’s wrong with the joints now

How the job changes by surface

Door frames

The gap between a door frame and the wall around it needs sealing as well as the door itself. We fill it with a fire-rated product suited to the materials either side.

Service penetrations

Different services need different details: metal pipes, cables and plastic pipes aren’t treated the same. Each one is sealed to the product’s tested detail, and tell you if sealant alone isn’t the right fix.

What fire rated sealant looks like in Great Wymondley

Great Wymondley has hotels and guest accommodation in and around it. For hotels, a room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on. 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.

Community buildings like Church of St Mary the Virgin are part of the picture too: service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building. Schools such as Wymondley Junior Mixed and Infant School are buildings too, and fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in. For landlords with property near Hitchin station, new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant.

Great Wymondley questions

Will you come out to Great Wymondley?

Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

Do you take on hotel work around Great Wymondley?

Yes, hospitality work, including hotels, is part of what we do. Work can be planned room by room, and out-of-hours working can be arranged.

Can you give us a record of the work?

Yes. Locations and products are written up when we finish. Tell us if your assessor needs it in a particular format.

Does someone need to be in?

We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.

What sealant do you use?

Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, picked for each joint. We explain the product when we quote.

How long does fire rated sealant take?

A typical job takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.

Can you seal over the old sealant?

No. Fresh sealant does not stick to old sealant, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. It all has to come out first.

Can ordinary silicone be used in a fire-stopping gap?

No. A gap that needs fire stopping needs a tested fire-rated product, installed to its details.

How to look after the new joints

So the new joints stay in good condition:

  • Store the list of sealed gaps with your building paperwork
  • Never patch a fire seal with standard sealant
  • Allow for resealing whenever new services are run
  • Keep pictures of seals that will be hidden

Let contractors know where fire stopping has been done, and ask them to reseal anything they cut through. A lot of damaged fire stopping comes from later work.

A gap left open in a fire-resisting wall or floor lets smoke spread in ways the building wasn’t designed for. Closing it is usually a straightforward job.

Why act early in Great Wymondley

For some gaps, sealant is not the right answer and another system is needed. Large holes, cable bundles and plastic pipes can call for batts, collars or wraps. We will say so if a gap needs something other than sealant. Older cottages and farmhouses around Great Wymondley can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first and give you a clear price before work begins.
