What happens on the day
We bring everything the job needs with us, so you do not need to buy or prepare anything. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. Parking around Hadleigh is normally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.
- We plan the order of work and access, floor by floor or flat by flat.
- We take out any damaged or unsuitable sealant.
- Gaps are cleaned of dust and loose material.
- We apply and tool the sealant to the product’s tested detail.

How we handle fire rated sealant in Hadleigh
Fire stopping only performs as intended if it’s done to the detail: correct depth, correct backing and a product suited to the surfaces. That detail is what we take care over, gap by gap. If you’re dealing with gaps left after a refit or conversion and linear gaps at the head of walls, we can help, on linear gaps, pipe & cable gaps and flats & HMOs alike.
Community buildings, schools and small businesses around places like Hadleigh have washrooms and kitchens that see a lot of use. Sealant and fire-rated joints there matter as much as in any larger building.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once the job is done.

What affects the quote in Hadleigh
Call for a quick quote. The main things that affect it are:
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The number of rooms or windows
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Mould in or behind the old joints
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.
What to tell us for a quote
When you contact us, these details help:
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- The type of property
- Whether it has been sealed before
- The rough size of the job
It all starts with a short chat. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we will talk you through what we’d do. Whenever you’re ready, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Should I try it myself first?
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
What we can’t put right
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:
- Large holes that need a different fire-stopping system
- Walls or floors that weren’t built to resist fire
- Problems with the door itself rather than the gap around the frame
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Landlords and letting agents in Hadleigh can book us as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
How the job changes by surface
Door frames
We deal with the gap around the frame, not the door. The door leaf, its seals and closer need a door specialist and we will mention anything we notice.
Masonry and concrete
Preparation counts on brick, block and concrete. We brush and vacuum the gap and use backing where the detail needs it.

Why it’s worth doing now in Hadleigh
Waiting for the next refit can leave a gap open for years. Sealing the gap now is a contained job on its own and needn’t wait for anything else. Homes in smaller places like Hadleigh can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll go through it with you.

Your questions about fire rated sealant in Hadleigh
Is Hadleigh in your area for fire rated sealant?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Hadleigh is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Will you come out to Hadleigh?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
What fire rating will the seal have?
We do not certify fire stopping or quote ratings. We apply the specified product to the manufacturer’s details and list the locations and products for you.
What’s the difference between intumescent and fire-rated sealant?
An intumescent sealant expands when it gets hot, helping close the gap. It’s one type of fire-rated sealant; which product suits depends on the gap, the substrate and the service.
How long will you be here?
Most jobs take a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building, including the preparation. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. The old sealant always comes out first, so the new joint bonds to clean surfaces.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes. Each job is guaranteed for twelve months, large or small.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Doing several areas at once is usually more efficient, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
Fire rated sealant in Hadleigh: local notes
If you run a hotel, guest house or holiday let in a coastal place like Hadleigh, busy months put washrooms and kitchens under pressure, so it’s worth checking the sealant before the busiest weeks. 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.
Community buildings like Church of St James the Less are part of the picture too: service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building. Letting a property close to Leigh-on-Sea station? Then fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through. Managing a site like Hadleigh Junior School? Then fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.
