Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Hassell Street
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. We work on service penetrations, door frames and linear gaps, and the jobs we see most are gaps filled with a product that isn’t fire-rated and fire seals that have cracked with movement.
In a village or hamlet like Hassell Street, 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.
All our work comes with a 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Kent.

How it works
When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. Most jobs take from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. Somewhere as small as Hassell Street, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We plan the order of work and access, floor by floor or flat by flat.
- We take out any damaged or unsuitable sealant.
- Dust and loose debris are cleaned from each gap.
- We apply and tool the sealant to the product’s tested detail.
- We record what was done and flag anything that needs a different system.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

Common reasons people contact us include:
- Unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall
- Fire seals that have cracked with movement

Questions to ask before you book
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- What insurance they hold
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- What guarantee comes with the work
Should I try it myself first?
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.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Common questions in Hassell Street
I let a flat near Wye station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Do you cover Hassell Street for fire rated sealant?
Yes, Hassell Street is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Will we have a record of what was sealed?
Yes. You get a list of where we worked and what we used.
What fire rating will the seal have?
That isn’t something we state or certify. The requirement comes from your assessor, designer or building control, and we apply a product tested for it, recording the locations and products.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured.
Which products do you use?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we’ll explain our choice.
How much does fire rated sealant cost in Hassell Street?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. You’ll get a clear quote before work begins.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Let us know what needs doing and where. We will ask anything else we need to know.
Leave it or put it right?
Leaving a gap until a refurbishment comes round can mean years with it open. On its own, sealing it now is a small job. Around Hassell Street, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before work begins, so you know where you stand.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Take pictures of fire stopping before ceilings or boxing go back
- Get damaged fire seals looked at promptly
- Include fire stopping when you schedule refits
- Don’t fill fire-stopping gaps with ordinary foam or silicone
Include fire stopping in your regular building checks. Look for cracks, gaps or sealant that has been cut or pulled out and get them seen to.
A gap left open in a fire-resisting wall or floor lets smoke spread in ways the building wasn’t designed for. Sealing it early is a simple step to take.
