Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Littlehampton
A fire seal relies on being installed the way it was tested: correct depth, correct backing and a product suited to the surfaces. That detail is what we take care over, one gap at a time. Common call-outs are for ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed and open gaps behind door architraves, on linear gaps, service penetrations and flats & HMOs.
If you look after a school, care home, pub or office in Littlehampton, the sealant in its washrooms and kitchens, and the fire-rated joints around its pipework, all need looking after. Out-of-hours working is possible to arrange.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Fire rated sealant in Littlehampton: local notes
If you run a hotel, guest house or holiday let in a coastal place like Littlehampton, 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. 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, which is often where open fire-stopping gaps are first noticed. We work to the specification you’re given, installing the product to its tested details.
For landlords with property near Littlehampton station, any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as The Littlehampton Academy, fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.

What else we do in Littlehampton
What we are called out for in Littlehampton
Sometimes the wrong product was used from the start: ordinary expanding foam, standard silicone or decorators’ caulk in a place that needed a tested fire seal. It may look fine, but it isn’t a fire-rated seal.
People generally contact us after spotting something like this:
- Fire stopping disturbed by later work
- Sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list
- Cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant
- Gaps left after a refit or conversion
For buildings such as The Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.

We protect the rest, and the job takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are in most cases.

- Old, damaged or unsuitable sealant is removed.

DIY versus a professional finish
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the 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.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

Questions from Littlehampton
Do you work for landlords with property near Littlehampton station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Do you cover Littlehampton for fire rated sealant?
Yes, Littlehampton is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing.
Is there any odour?
Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes: twelve months. If anything isn’t right with the work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.
How long does the job take?
It depends on the size of the job, but as a guide it takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. We’ll give you a better idea when we quote.
Is it messy?
We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints.
Do you have insurance?
Yes, we’re fully insured.
Where are you based?
Our base is in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Keeping the joints in good condition
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Tell trades working in the building that fire seals must be put back
- Plan fire stopping into any work that goes through walls or floors
- Keep the record of products and locations with your fire safety documents
- Look in service cupboards and ceiling voids from time to time
Any fire seal that is cut or drilled needs resealing to its tested detail. If you need new services through a sealed wall, plan the fire stopping as part of the job.
Small gaps around services are simple to deal with while there are only a few. Leave them and each new job adds another hole.
Why deal with it now?
If an assessor has flagged gaps, it makes sense to close them before the next review. Having them sealed and recorded now means you can show the action was taken. Black mould and gaps in sealant don’t fix themselves, and in a busy home in Littlehampton they get worse with every use. Now is the easy time to put it right.
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.

What the job involves on each surface
Masonry and concrete
Holes through concrete and block are rarely neat. We check the gap size around the service against the product’s tested range.
Plasterboard walls
Holes in plasterboard are often cut roughly for services. Gaps that are too big for sealant alone need a different detail, and we will tell you.
