Fire rated sealant in Green Park, done properly
Ordinary silicone or decorators’ caulk in a fire-stopping gap is not a fire-rated seal. Anything unsuitable comes out first and reseal with a fire-rated product tested for that kind of gap. We work on door frames, service penetrations and pipe & cable gaps, and the jobs we see most are new service routes left unsealed after building work and joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey.
If you have holiday lets, a converted barn used for business or a community building near Green Park, the washrooms, kitchens and any fire-rated joints need the same care as a big site.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Questions from Green Park
Do you work for hotels and guest houses in Green Park?
Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. A room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Reading Green Park station?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Can you give us a record of the work?
Yes. We note each location and the product that went in so it’s there for the next inspection.
How long does fire rated sealant take?
As a guide, most jobs take a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. Larger jobs naturally take longer, and we will say how long yours will take.
Do you work in Green Park?
Yes. We are based in Crawley and work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Can you match the sealant colour?
Most of the time, yes. We’ll tell you which colours the right product comes in.
Do I have to be there?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
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.

When to call us in Green Park
Door frames are a common weak spot. The gap between the frame and the wall is hidden behind the architrave, so it can be left open when a door is replaced.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed
- Fire seals that have cracked with movement
- New service routes left unsealed after building work
- Damaged fire sealant left by other trades
Schools such as Whitley Park Primary and Nursery School are buildings too, and gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices.

Workplaces and the common parts of blocks of flats in England need a fire risk assessment under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, and gaps around services are often picked up there.

How it works
A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, do the work and clear up. Most jobs take from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. In a small place like Green Park, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Mention any parking rules near the property

Advice
What affects the cost of fire rated sealant
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We take into account:
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The number of rooms or windows
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re unsure, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.
What to tell us for a quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to know:
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- How we’d reach the joints
- Photos by email, if that is easy
If you are in Green Park and need fire rated sealant, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us. A short description of the job and where it is helps us quote, and we will agree the price before any work begins.
Can I do it myself?
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 fails, we can still redo it.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Surface by surface
Flats and HMOs
Flats and HMOs rely on fire separation between homes and the common parts. We work through the gaps on your assessment room by room.
Plasterboard walls
In plasterboard walls, the condition of the board edge matters. Crumbling edges are cleaned back before the sealant goes in.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks
- Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
- Include fire stopping when you schedule refits
- Do not paint over fire sealant until it has cured
Include fire stopping in your regular building checks. Watch for cracking, gaps or seals that have been disturbed and have them put right.
If a fire risk assessment has flagged a gap, do not leave it for the next one. Get it sealed and recorded.
