Fire rated sealant in Kingston Gorse, done properly
Fire-rated sealant closes the gaps around pipes, cables and frames where they pass through a fire-resisting wall or floor. We apply intumescent and fire-rated sealants to the manufacturer’s tested details for each gap, and we can record what went where. If you have gaps filled with a product that isn’t fire-rated and damaged fire sealant left by other trades, we can put it right.
For a small place like Kingston Gorse, the journey and timings are agreed in advance, so the job can fit around bookings, guests or opening times where possible.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

What affects the quote in Kingston Gorse
Jobs vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:
- Whether the work is at height
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Any mould that needs treating
- The number and length of the joints
No two jobs are quite the same, 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’ll explain the quote if you ask.
Asking for a quote
To make quoting easier, let us know:
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- The address or postcode of the job
Quotes start with a quick conversation. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we will explain how we’d tackle it. Whenever you are ready, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Leave it or put it right?
A quick fill with any sealant to hand isn’t fire stopping. A fire-rated product only performs as tested when it’s installed to its tested detail, so both the product and the method matter. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Kingston Gorse, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs. Ask us for a quote and we’ll go through it with you.

Common problems we fix in Kingston Gorse
Lots of unsealed gaps appear long after the building was completed. Electricians, plumbers and data installers drill through walls and ceilings and the hole they leave does not always get resealed.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Open holes round services passing through fire walls
- Fire stopping disturbed by later work
- New service routes left unsealed after building work
- Ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed
If you look after a building such as Ferring CofE Primary School, fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.
Before you book anyone
- What preparation is included
- When the joint can take water or movement
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
DIY versus a professional finish
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs 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 fire rated sealant looks like in Kingston Gorse
If you run a hotel, guest house or holiday let in a coastal place like Kingston Gorse, heavy use in the busy months is hard on washroom and kitchen sealant, and any building work there should leave fire-rated joints made good. 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 are given, installing the product to its tested details.
For buildings such as St Andrew's Church, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there. Rented homes near Goring-By-Sea station change hands often, and new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant.
