Fire rated sealant in Jaywick
We often work from an action list drawn up by a fire risk assessor for buildings in Jaywick. Send us the list or the survey and we’ll quote for the fire-rated sealant work on it. We work on service penetrations, plasterboard & masonry and linear gaps, and the jobs we see most are open holes round services passing through fire walls and gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs.
For a pub, café, guest house or shop in or near Jaywick, the washrooms and kitchen need the same attention as a big site, and fire-rated sealant around service openings should be restored after new pipes or cables go through.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

What fire rated sealant looks like in Jaywick
If you run a hotel, guest house or holiday let in a coastal place like Jaywick, busy months put washrooms and kitchens under pressure, so it’s worth checking the sealant before the busiest weeks. 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 let a flat or house near Clacton-On-Sea station, new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant. If you look after a building such as Sir Martin Frobisher Academy, service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St Christopher, older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking.

Why deal with it now?
Leaving a gap until a refurbishment comes round can mean years with it open. On its own, sealing it now is a small job and needn’t wait for anything else. Around Jaywick, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, and that’s a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
The cost depends on the amount of work, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. You will have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

What affects the quote in Jaywick
For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:
- The number of rooms or windows
- The number and length of the joints
- The product the joint needs
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
What we need to know
You do not need to know the technical terms. Just tell us:
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is.

Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can be quoted together.

Is Jaywick in your area for fire rated sealant?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.
Are you an approved applicator?

Do the sealants smell?
It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.
Do I have to be there?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you don’t need to watch us work.
What information do you need?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. If you can, email a few pictures.
Is intumescent sealant the same as fire-rated sealant?
An intumescent material expands when it’s heated. Many fire-rated sealants work this way, but not all, and the choice depends on the gap.
What we can’t put right
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Big openings where sealant alone is not the tested solution
- Doors that are not fire doors in the first place
- Deciding what fire stopping a building needs
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think before you book.
What we seal
- Flats & HMOs
- Linear gaps
- Door frames

- Pipe & cable gaps
What happens on the day
When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. For a job in Jaywick, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.
- We go through the gaps on your list or survey and check each one’s size and substrate.
- Anything that isn’t fit for the job comes out, and the gap is cleaned.
- Backing or fill is fitted where the product’s tested detail calls for it.
- We apply the fire-rated or intumescent sealant to the specified depth and tool it.
- Locations and products are noted so you have them on file.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on

Advice
How the job changes by surface
Door frames
Our work is the joint between frame and wall. The door leaf, its seals and closer need a door specialist, and we will say if we spot a problem with them.
Service penetrations
A copper pipe, a cable and a plastic pipe can all need different fire-stopping details. Each one is sealed to the product’s tested detail.

Should I try it myself first?
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
