Your questions about fire rated sealant in Hare Green
Is Hare Green within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
I let a flat near Great Bentley station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders, and several properties can go on one quote. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes. All our work carries a one-year guarantee.
Can you tell me which gaps need fire stopping?
No. That is for a fire risk assessor, designer or building control. Our job is applying the sealant to their specification.
Where do you work from?
We are based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we are part of it.
What does fire rated sealant cost?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Ask us for a quote and we’ll talk you through it.
Will it make a mess?
Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
How we handle fire rated sealant in Hare Green
A gap around a door frame, a linear joint at the head of a wall and a hole round a pipe are each sealed differently. We check the size and the substrate before choosing the product, then the sealant goes in to the depth the product’s details set. If you have gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment and cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
In a village or hamlet like Hare Green, 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.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee.

Different surfaces, different methods
Door frames
The gap between a door frame and the wall around it needs sealing as well as the door itself. We fill it with a fire-rated product suited to the materials either side.
Service penetrations
Different services need different details: metal pipes, cables and plastic pipes aren’t treated the same. Each one is sealed to the product’s tested detail.
Fire rated sealant around Hare Green
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 apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details.
For landlords with property near Great Bentley station, fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of St George, older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking.

Other services in Hare Green
Do you need fire rated sealant in Hare Green?
Sometimes the wrong product was used from the start: ordinary expanding foam, standard silicone or decorators’ caulk in a place that needed a tested fire seal. It may look fine, but it is not a fire-rated seal.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Open holes round services passing through fire walls
- Fire seals that have cracked with movement
- Holes left by a change of layout
- Unsealed gaps around fire door frames
Managing a site like St George's Church of England Primary School? Then service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.

Honest limits
We’d rather tell you now than do work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:
- Certifying a building or signing off its fire safety
- Walls or floors that weren’t built to resist fire
- Openings too large for sealant, which need batts, boards or another system

What we do, step by step
You don’t need to clear the whole room or building, just the space around the work. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access in most cases. In a small place like Hare Green, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We begin by agreeing the list of gaps from your assessor’s or designer’s requirements.
- 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.
- The specified fire-rated sealant goes in over any backing its detail requires.
- We hand over a list of locations and products for your records.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Clear the area around the work

Related advice
Should I try it myself first?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
