Fire Rated Sealant in Kit's Coty
Our applicators work in Kit's Coty on intumescent and fire-rated sealant around gaps, frames and service penetrations. Old material cut out, joints cleaned and sealed neatly and every job guaranteed for a year.
- Unsealed gaps around fire door frames
- Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
- New service routes left unsealed after building work
How to look after the new joints
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep photos of seals that will be hidden
- Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
- File the fire-stopping record where your assessor can find it
- Ask which product was used before you paint
Let contractors know where fire stopping has been done, and make sure anything they disturb is resealed with a suitable product. A lot of damaged fire stopping comes from later work.
Any job that breaks through a wall or ceiling should include resealing. Catching it then saves a separate visit later.
Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Kit's Coty
Ordinary silicone or decorators’ caulk in a fire-stopping gap is not a fire-rated seal. We cut out the wrong material and the gap is resealed with a product tested for that use. We work on service penetrations, flats & HMOs and plasterboard & masonry, and the jobs we see most are damaged fire sealant left by other trades and standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap.
For holiday lets, converted business premises or a community building near Kit's Coty, washroom and kitchen sealant and any fire-rated joints need the same attention as anywhere.
You get a 12-month guarantee, the same in Kit's Coty as everywhere else we work.

Can I do it myself?
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
For landlords and businesses
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we’ll give you a quote.
Surface by surface
Linear gaps
Head-of-wall gaps are often hidden above suspended ceilings. We work along the whole run so there are no open sections left.
Door frames
Frame gaps are normally hidden behind the architrave. Where it’s open, we seal it to the product’s details for that gap size.

Why it’s worth doing now in Kit's Coty
Fire-rated sealants need more care than everyday sealant. How it’s installed changes how it performs, so we follow the maker’s details on every gap. Around Kit's Coty, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll explain what it covers.

Fire rated sealant in Kit's Coty: local notes
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.
For buildings such as St Alban's Church, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building. For landlords with property near Aylesford 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 Tunbury Primary School, gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices.
