Harrietsham Fire Rated Sealant
Professional fire rated sealant in and around Harrietsham, with old sealant always removed completely.
- Ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed
- Gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs
- Damaged fire sealant left by other trades
How to look after the new joints
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
- Photograph sealed gaps before they’re covered up
- Never patch a fire seal with standard sealant
- Flag any open gap you spot round a pipe or cable
Include fire stopping in your regular building checks. Watch for cracking, gaps or seals that have been disturbed and have them put right.
Any job that breaks through a wall or ceiling should include resealing. Catching it then saves a separate visit later.
Fire rated sealant in Harrietsham
Deciding which gaps need fire stopping isn’t our role; your assessor, designer or building control sets that out. What we do is apply the right product to that specification, properly and neatly. If you have gaps filled with a product that isn’t fire-rated and open joints along the top of partitions, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
For a pub, café, guest house or shop in or near Harrietsham, the washrooms and kitchen need the same attention as a big site.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after we’ve gone.

Other services in Harrietsham
Do you need fire rated sealant in Harrietsham?
Gaps around door frames are easily missed. The gap between the frame and the wall is hidden behind the architrave, so it can be left open when a door is replaced.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall
- Old fire sealant that has split or come away
- Ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed
- Unsealed gaps around fire door frames
Managing a site like Harrietsham Church of England Primary School? Then fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.

What the job involves on each surface
Service penetrations
Service penetrations are where new gaps often appear. Old or unsuitable filler comes out before the right sealant goes in.
Linear gaps
Long, narrow gaps appear where walls meet slabs and ceilings. We seal them to the tested detail, with backing where it’s needed.
What affects the cost of fire rated sealant
For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The size of the job
- The product the joint needs
- The old material and how stubborn it is
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
Helping us quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- If someone has resealed it before
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel

Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we will quote.
Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too in Harrietsham and across Kent. We can quote a run of properties together.
The process
Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we don’t rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. A visit to Harrietsham is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.
- 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.
- We fit backing where needed and apply the fire-rated sealant to depth.
- Every location is recorded with the product used for your files.
Preparing for the visit
- Move anything stored near the joints
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Fire rated sealant in Harrietsham: local notes
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 are given, installing the product to its tested details.

Rented homes near Harrietsham station change hands often, and fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through.
