Fire Rated Sealant in Hedgerley Green
Fire-stopping gaps in Hedgerley Green need attention? We cut out the old, prepare the joints and apply the right sealant, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
- Sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list
- Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
- Gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs
Different surfaces, different methods
Plasterboard walls
Holes in plasterboard are often cut roughly for services. Where a hole is bigger than the sealant’s tested range, it needs another approach.
Service penetrations
Wherever a service goes through a fire-resisting wall or floor, there’s a gap around it. The sealant is chosen for what passes through and how wide the gap is.
Fire rated sealant in Hedgerley Green
In flats, HMOs, offices and schools, fire stopping is often disturbed by later work. A new cable run or a replaced pipe can leave an open hole behind. Those are the gaps we close, using a tested fire-rated product. Common call-outs are for gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls and unsealed gaps around fire door frames, on flats & HMOs, linear gaps and service penetrations.
If you have holiday lets, a converted barn used for business or a community building near Hedgerley Green, the washrooms, kitchens and any fire-rated joints need the same care as a big site.
Our work is backed for twelve months, in Hedgerley Green and everywhere else we cover.

Fire rated sealant in Hedgerley Green: local notes
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, 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. Hedgerley Green has hotels and guest accommodation in and around it. Hotel work can be planned room by room, with out-of-hours working where needed.

- When we can work, for business premises
- The size of the job
- Which sealant suits the joint
The cost depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before any work starts.

- Whether it’s a home or a business

Do you need fire rated sealant in Hedgerley Green?
Sometimes the wrong product was used from the start: general-purpose foam, everyday silicone or caulk in a place that needed a tested fire seal. It may look fine, but it is not a fire-rated seal.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Holes left by a change of layout
- Gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs
- Fire seals that have cracked with movement
- Open gaps behind door architraves
Managing a site like Gayhurst School? Then service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.
What your quote should include
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- Are they insured?
- The length of the guarantee
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first

How to look after the new joints
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Get damaged fire seals looked at promptly
- Ask every contractor to reseal any fire stopping they disturb
- Keep pictures of seals that will be hidden
- Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks
Keep the record we give you with the building’s fire safety documents. It helps whoever checks the building next.
Small gaps around services are simple to deal with while there are only a few. Over time, more work adds more holes and the list grows.
DIY versus a professional finish
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
What we do, step by step
When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before we start. Most jobs take a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. In a small place like Hedgerley Green, access is normally 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.
- Any non-fire-rated filler is removed.
- We fit backing where needed and apply the fire-rated sealant to depth.
- Every location is recorded with the product used.
How to prepare
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
