Fire rated sealant in Greatstone-on-Sea, done properly
A fire seal relies on being installed the way it was tested: the right depth, the right backing and the right product for the substrate. That detail is what we take care over. We work on plasterboard & masonry, pipe & cable gaps and flats & HMOs, and the jobs we see most are gaps filled with a product that isn’t fire-rated and open holes round services passing through fire walls.
In a village or hamlet like Greatstone-on-Sea, commercial work is more likely to be a pub, a farm shop, holiday lets or a village hall than an office block. Each still needs sound sealant in its washrooms and kitchens, and fire-rated joints where services pass through walls.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

How it works

Expect the work to take 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.

- We remove any old or unsuitable filler and clean the gap.
- We put in whatever backing or fill the product detail specifies.

Advice
DIY versus a professional finish
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

How long will you be here?
As a guide, most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. Bigger jobs take longer, and we’ll tell you how long to expect.
What information do you need?
Only a few details: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. Then call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
What does intumescent mean?
Intumescent describes a material that swells in heat. Intumescent sealants are a type of fire-rated sealant, and the choice depends on the gap.
Does someone need to be in?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
Normally, yes. Sealants come in white, clear, grey and other colours for many products, and we agree the colour with you before we start.
Can you tell me how many minutes the seal will last?
Ratings and certificates aren’t something we issue. The performance comes from the product’s tested details and the specification from your assessor or designer.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Don’t paint over fire sealant until it has cured
- Keep the record of products and locations with your fire safety documents
- Tell trades working in the building that fire seals must be put back
- Photograph sealed gaps before they’re covered up
File the record of locations and products with your fire safety paperwork. It helps whoever checks the building next.
If a fire risk assessment has flagged a gap, don’t leave it for the next one. Get it sealed and recorded.
Why act early in Greatstone-on-Sea
For some gaps, sealant is not the right answer and another system is needed. Big openings, bundles of cables and plastic pipes may need batts, collars or wraps instead. If a gap is not suitable for sealant, we will tell you. Older cottages and farmhouses around Greatstone-on-Sea can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask about the job first.
