About our fire rated sealant in Laide
Where services or frames pass through a fire-resisting wall or floor, the gap around them needs a fire-rated seal. We apply intumescent and fire-rated sealants to the manufacturer’s tested details for each gap. We work on service penetrations, pipe & cable gaps and plasterboard & masonry, and the jobs we see most are damaged fire sealant left by other trades and fire seals that have cracked with movement.
For a place like Laide, the journey and timings are planned in advance, so the job can fit around guests, residents or opening hours where possible.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

Different surfaces, different methods
Flats and HMOs
Flats and HMOs rely on fire separation between homes and the common parts. We seal the gaps your assessor has identified, flat by flat if needed.
Plasterboard walls
Many fire-resisting walls in flats, offices and conversions are plasterboard. We use a product tested in that kind of wall.
Leave it or put it right?
Fire-rated sealants need more care than everyday sealant. Depth, backing and surface preparation all affect how a seal performs, and we work to the product details every time. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.
What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before work begins, so you know where you stand.
Why us?
- ARBOMaster approved applicator
- We leave the area clean and tidy
- Full insurance on every job
- Every job guaranteed for a year

Aftercare tips
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks
- Photograph sealed gaps before they’re covered up
- Store the list of sealed gaps with your building paperwork
- Ask every contractor to reseal any fire stopping they disturb
File the record of locations and products with your fire safety paperwork. It saves time at the next inspection or assessment.
Open gaps do not only matter in a fire: they also let noise, draughts and sometimes pests through. Dealing with them early helps with all of these.

- Fire seals that have cracked with movement
- Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
- Open gaps behind door architraves
