Fire-rated sealant in Hurst Green, Surrey
Our applicators work in Hurst Green on intumescent and fire-rated sealant around gaps, frames and service penetrations. Old sealant removed completely, joints prepared properly.
- Door frames with gaps between frame and wall
- New service routes left unsealed after building work
- Fire stopping disturbed by later work
Fire rated sealant in Hurst Green
Filling a fire-stopping gap with standard silicone or caulk does not make it fire-rated. Anything unsuitable comes out first and reseal with a fire-rated product tested for that kind of gap. We work on linear gaps, plasterboard & masonry and service penetrations, and people most often call us about linear gaps at the head of walls and cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant.
If you have holiday lets, a converted barn used for business or a community building near Hurst Green, the washrooms, kitchens and any fire-rated joints need the same care as a big site.
You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Different surfaces, different methods
Flats and HMOs
Working in occupied flats needs some planning. We agree access to each flat and the common parts before we start.
Door frames
We deal with the gap around the frame, not the door. The door leaf, its seals and closer need a door specialist, and we’ll say if we spot a problem with them.
Should I try it myself first?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Your questions about fire rated sealant in Hurst Green
Will you come out to Hurst Green?
Yes, Hurst Green is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you cover Hurst Green for fire rated sealant?
Yes, Hurst Green is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing.
Do you take on fire stopping in schools and offices?
Yes. Flats, HMOs, offices, schools and other occupied buildings are all part of our work. We agree access and the order of work with you first.
Where are you based?
Our base is Crawley. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
Is intumescent sealant the same as fire-rated sealant?
Fire-rated sealant covers any sealant tested for use in fire stopping. Intumescent types expand when heated, and they’re one of the options. The specification and the tested detail decide which is used.
Which products do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, and it’s something we never do.
For landlords and businesses
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report. We can quote for more than one property at once.
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
Fire rated sealant in Hurst 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, 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.
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St Agatha's Hall, older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking. If you look after a building such as Hurst Green Infant School, service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.

Advice
When to call us in Hurst Green
Many open fire-stopping gaps are made after the building is finished. New cables, pipes and data runs go through walls and ceilings and the hole they leave doesn’t always get resealed.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Fire seals that have cracked with movement
- Damaged fire sealant left by other trades
- Open holes round services passing through fire walls
- Door frames with gaps between frame and wall
If you let a flat or house near Hurst Green station, fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through.
What to look for in a quote
- Who turns up on the day
- Is VAT in the price?
- Whether you can choose the colour
- Are they insured?
Honest limits
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:
- Walls or floors that weren’t built to resist fire
- Deciding what fire stopping a building needs
- Issuing a fire rating or certificate for a building
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think.
