Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Hale
Deciding which gaps need fire stopping is not our role; your assessor, designer or building control sets that out. Our part is applying the specified sealant carefully, to the right depth and with the right backing. If you have linear gaps at the head of walls and open gaps behind door architraves, we can put it right.
For a small place like Hale, the journey and timings are agreed in advance, so the job can fit around bookings, guests or opening times where possible.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

Workplaces and buildings in Hale
Hale has hotels and guest accommodation in and around it. Hotel work can be planned room by room, with out-of-hours working where needed. Workplaces and the common parts of blocks of flats in England need a fire risk assessment under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which is often where open fire-stopping gaps are first noticed. We apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details.
Community buildings like The Church of St John the Evangelist are part of the picture too: gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there. If you look after a building such as Farnham Heath End School, fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in. For landlords with property near Farnham station, any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.
Hale is about 1 mile north of Farnham, in Surrey. Our applicators cover fire rated sealant for householders, landlords and businesses in Hale and nearby, as part of our work across Surrey. Our Surrey coverage runs to 395 places, and Hale is one of them. Reading is on our list too, about 17 miles from Hale.

Landmarks near Hale
Locally, jobs take us to homes and businesses close to Weybourne LNR, William Cobbett Primary School and The Six Bells pub and the streets around them. Hale’s nearest station is Farnham station, about 1.3 miles south. Nearby you will also find Farnham Castle (1.1 miles south-west) and Museum of Farnham (1.4 miles south-west). Not far away are Farnham Park and Aunt's Pool.
Looking after it afterwards
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Allow for resealing whenever new services are run
- Get damaged fire seals looked at promptly
- Never patch a fire seal with standard sealant
- Check whether a sealant can be painted before decorating over it
Do not add foam, filler or ordinary sealant over a fire seal. If it needs repair, use the same type of product. We can tell you which product we used.
If a fire risk assessment has flagged a gap, don’t leave it for the next one. Get it sealed and recorded so you can show it was dealt with.
What happens on the day
You don’t need to clear the whole room or building before we come, just the space around the work. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building for a typical job. Somewhere like Hale needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- Before starting, we go through the specification or action list with you.
- We measure every gap and note what it’s in and what passes through.
- Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out and the faces cleaned.
- We fit backing where needed and apply the fire-rated sealant to depth.
- We hand over a list of locations and products for your files.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Landlord and commercial work in Hale
Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
We also work for property managers and facilities teams. Several sites can be quoted together, and we’re fully insured for the work.
Should I try it myself first?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
Surface by surface
Service penetrations
A copper pipe, a cable and a plastic pipe can all need different fire-stopping details. We follow the manufacturer’s tested detail for each.
Flats and HMOs
Working in occupied flats needs some planning. Access to flats and common areas is agreed in advance.

When it isn’t the sealant
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant will not put right:
- Big openings where sealant alone is not the tested solution
- Issuing a fire rating or certificate for a building
- A wall that is not a fire-resisting element to begin with
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think.

Hale: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords with property near Farnham station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Will you come out to Hale?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
What’s the difference between intumescent and fire-rated sealant?
Intumescent describes a material that swells in heat. Many fire-rated sealants work this way, but not all and which one is used depends on the job.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We are fully insured.
Is standard sealant good enough for a fire gap?
No. It looks sealed but will not perform as fire stopping. Use a product tested for that gap and service.
What fire rating will the seal have?
We do not give ratings or certificates for our work. Your specification sets the requirement, and we fit a product whose tested details meet it, recording the locations and products.
What does fire rated sealant cost?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. To get one, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing and where.
Why deal with it now?
Paying for fire stopping that has to be redone is a false economy. If the details weren’t followed, the seal may need redoing once someone inspects it. Older cottages and farmhouses around Hale can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.
