DIY sealant or a professional job?
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

Fire rated sealant around Hollybushes
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’re given, installing the product to its tested details.
Schools such as Milstead and Frinsted Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices.

Do I need to be at home?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Of course. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit.
Will we have a record of what was sealed?
Yes. We record the locations we have sealed and the products used for your files.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We are an ARBOMaster approved applicator, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.
What’s the difference between intumescent and fire-rated sealant?
Fire-rated sealant covers any sealant tested for use in fire stopping. Intumescent ones swell in heat, and they’re one of the options. The specification and the tested detail decide which is used.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before resealing.

How the job changes by surface
Masonry and concrete
Holes through concrete and block are rarely neat. We measure the gap at its widest point to make sure it suits the product.
Linear gaps
Long, narrow gaps appear where walls meet slabs and ceilings. They’re sealed with a fire-rated sealant over backing where the detail calls for it.
Leave it or put it right?
Items left open on a fire risk assessment tend to come back at the next review. Getting them done and written up gives you evidence that the item was dealt with. Older cottages and farmhouses around Hollybushes can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference, and we will explain the quote if you ask.

How to look after the new joints
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Look in service cupboards and ceiling voids from time to time
- Tell trades working in the building that fire seals must be put back
- Include fire stopping when you schedule refits
- Flag any open gap you spot round a pipe or cable
Any fire seal that’s cut or drilled needs resealing to its tested detail. New services through a sealed wall should include fire stopping in the plan.
It’s easiest to seal gaps while they’re few and easy to reach. Over time, more work adds more holes and the job gets bigger.
Common problems we fix in Hollybushes
Much fire stopping is hidden: in ceiling voids, service risers and behind boxing. Because nobody sees it, gaps go unnoticed until an assessor or surveyor looks.
The most common problems we see are:
- Sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list
- Fire stopping disturbed by later work
- Open gaps behind door architraves
- Open holes round services passing through fire walls
Letting a property close to Sittingbourne station? Then new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant.
