About our fire rated sealant in Guilton

We often work from an action list drawn up by a fire risk assessor. Send us the list or the survey and we will quote for the fire-rated sealant work on it. If you have sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list and seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers, we can help, whatever the surface.

Work in a small place like Guilton is planned ahead, journey included, so it can be fitted around guests, clients or events where possible.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Why act early in Guilton

A quick fill with any sealant to hand is not fire stopping. A fire-rated product only performs as tested when it’s installed to its tested detail, which is why we match the product and the method to each gap. Around Guilton, older homes often have timber in their 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: the amount of work, the access and the products needed. Call for a quick quote and we’ll explain what it covers.

What the job involves on each surface

Service penetrations

Wherever a service goes through a fire-resisting wall or floor, there’s a gap around it. The sealant is chosen for what passes through and how wide the gap is.

Flats and HMOs

In occupied buildings, we plan the order of work with you. Access to flats and common areas is agreed in advance.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Guilton

Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.

For anyone letting property in or around Guilton, several properties can go on one quote. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs, and photos by email help.

Honest limits

Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant will not do:

  • Fire doors that need new seals, closers or hardware
  • Openings too large for sealant, which need batts, boards or another system
  • A wall that isn’t a fire-resisting element to begin with

If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we seal

  • Linear gaps
  • Door frames
  • Plasterboard & masonry
  • Pipe & cable gaps
  • Flats & HMOs
  • Service penetrations

How to look after the new joints

Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:

  • Keep pictures of seals that will be hidden
  • Allow for resealing whenever new services are run
  • Look in service cupboards and ceiling voids from time to time
  • Never patch a fire seal with standard sealant

Follow the cure time we give you before decorating over the sealant. Some fire-rated sealants can be painted and some can’t, so ask us which we used.

Any job that breaks through a wall or ceiling should include resealing. Catching it then saves a separate visit later.

What fire rated sealant looks like in Guilton

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. We work to the specification you’re given, installing the product to its tested details.

For buildings such as Church of St Nicholas, older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking. For landlords with property near Sandwich station, new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant. Managing a site like Ash Cartwright and Kelsey Church of England Primary School? Then service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.

DIY versus a professional finish

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.

Guilton questions

Is Guilton in your area for fire rated sealant?

Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Guilton is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.

Is Guilton within the area you cover?

Yes, Guilton is covered. 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 out the old sealant first?

Yes, always, and completely. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.

Can I use normal mastic around a pipe through a fire wall?

No. Standard sealants aren’t made or tested to stop fire. We cut it out and reseal with a fire-rated product.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything isn’t right with the work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.

What sealant do you use?

Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, chosen to suit the joint. We’ll tell you what we’re using and why.

Will there be a smell?

That depends on the sealant. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.

How the visit works

On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The work itself takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are, including the tidy-up. Somewhere like Guilton needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. Before starting, we go through the specification or action list with you.
  2. We measure every gap and note what it’s in and what passes through.
  3. Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out.
  4. The specified fire-rated sealant goes in over any backing its detail requires.
  5. Every location is recorded with the product used for your files.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the work
  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
