About our fire rated sealant in Jenkins' Green

We do not assess buildings or decide what fire stopping is needed; that comes from your fire risk assessor, designer or building control. Our part is applying the specified sealant carefully, to the right depth and with the right backing. Typical jobs include fire seals that have cracked with movement and open gaps behind door architraves, across linear gaps, flats & HMOs and door frames.

Work in a small place like Jenkins' Green is planned ahead, journey included, so it can be fitted around guests, clients or events where possible.

Every job is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Commercial buildings in Jenkins' Green

If you run a hotel, guest house or holiday let in a coastal place like Jenkins' Green, busy months put washrooms and kitchens under pressure, so it’s worth checking the sealant before the busiest weeks. Workplaces and the common parts of blocks of flats in England need a fire risk assessment under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, 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.

Rented homes near Pevensey & Westham station change hands often, and 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 Hankham Primary School, gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices.

What we are called out for in Jenkins' Green

Gaps also open up as buildings move: cracked or debonded sealant leaves an open route through the wall. Damage from cleaning, knocks and maintenance adds to it.

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

  • Gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs
  • Unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall
  • Damaged fire sealant left by other trades
  • Holes left by a change of layout

Community buildings like St Luke's Church are part of the picture too: gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.

Before booking anyone

  • Who does the work, and how experienced they are
  • Which sealant they’ll use, and why
  • Which colour the sealant will be
  • Is VAT in the price?

Choosing a sealant specialist

The process

There’s no need to move everything out, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are in most cases. For a village or hamlet like Jenkins' Green, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  1. We plan the order of work and access, floor by floor or flat by flat.
  2. We take out any damaged or unsuitable sealant.
  3. Gaps are cleaned of dust and loose material.
  4. We apply and tool the sealant to the product’s tested detail.
  5. Locations and products are written up and any gaps unsuitable for sealant are flagged.

Before we arrive

Advice

Honest limits

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Certifying a building or signing off its fire safety
  • Deciding what fire stopping a building needs
  • Walls or floors that weren’t built to resist fire

If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think.

What we seal

  • Door frames
  • Flats & HMOs
  • Plasterboard & masonry
  • Linear gaps
  • Pipe & cable gaps
  • Service penetrations

Keeping the joints in good condition

Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:

  • Get damaged fire seals looked at promptly
  • Take photos of fire stopping before ceilings or boxing go back
  • Keep general-purpose foam and caulk away from fire-stopping gaps
  • Allow for resealing whenever new services are run

File the record of locations and products with your fire safety paperwork. It helps whoever checks the building next.

Leave a fire-stopping gap open and smoke can move through the building much more easily. Sealing it early is a simple step to take.

FAQs for Jenkins' Green

Do you work for landlords with property near Pevensey & Westham station?

Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners, and several properties can go on one quote. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.

Can you do fire rated sealant in Jenkins' Green?

How long does fire rated sealant take?

That depends on how much there is to do, but as a guide it takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. We’ll give you a better idea when we quote.

Can I use normal mastic around a pipe through a fire wall?

No. A gap that needs fire stopping needs a tested fire-rated product fitted to the maker’s details.

Can you tell me how many minutes the seal will last?

We do not give ratings or certificates for our work. The requirement comes from your assessor, designer or building control, and we fit a product whose tested details meet it.

Will we have a record of what was sealed?

Yes. When the job is done, we give you the locations and products. Tell us if your assessor needs it in a particular format.

Can you fill the gap behind a fire door frame?

Yes, if the gap is within the product’s tested range. We seal the frame-to-wall gap, not the door itself, and we will mention anything we notice about the door.

Do you carry out fire risk assessments?

No, assessment isn’t something we do. When your assessor or designer has set out what’s needed, we can quote for the fire-rated sealant items.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

If you manage several properties in or around Jenkins' Green, jobs at different addresses can go on one quote. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs.

  • The number of rooms or windows
  • Whether the work is at height

What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we ask about the job first.

What to tell us for a quote

Photos help, but a description is a good start. Please mention:

  • Where the property is
  • The rough size of the job
  • Whether it’s a home or a business
  • The problem you’ve noticed

Why deal with it now?

Items left open on a fire risk assessment tend to come back at the next review. Having them sealed and recorded now means you can show the action was taken. In a small place like Jenkins' Green, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
