How it works
At the end, we look at the finished work together. The work normally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are, depending on the size of the job. For a village or hamlet like Littlestone-on-Sea, 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.
- We begin by agreeing the list of gaps from your assessor’s or designer’s requirements.
- We measure every gap and note what it’s in and what passes through.
- Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out and the gap cleaned.
- The specified fire-rated sealant goes in over any backing its detail requires.
- We hand over a list of locations and products for your records.
Before we arrive

How we handle fire rated sealant in Littlestone-on-Sea
Ordinary silicone or decorators’ caulk in a fire-stopping gap is not a fire-rated seal. Anything unsuitable comes out first and the gap is resealed with a product tested for that use. We work on plasterboard & masonry, flats & HMOs and pipe & cable gaps, and the jobs we see most are holes left by a change of layout and open gaps behind door architraves.
Work in a small place like Littlestone-on-Sea is planned ahead, journey included, so it can be fitted around guests, clients or events where possible.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Surface by surface
Plasterboard walls
Holes in plasterboard are often cut roughly for services. Gaps that are too big for sealant alone need a different detail.
Masonry and concrete
Brick, block and concrete walls and floors are sealed with products tested in masonry. The gap is cleaned of dust first so the seal has something sound to bond to.
Leave it or put it right?
An open gap in a fire-resisting wall is a route for smoke and fire. A proper seal lets the wall do its job again, and the work involved is often modest. Around Littlestone-on-Sea, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you are unsure, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

What fire rated sealant looks like in Littlestone-on-Sea
If you run a hotel, guest house or holiday let in a coastal place like Littlestone-on-Sea, busy months put washrooms and kitchens under pressure, so it’s worth checking the sealant before the busiest weeks. 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 are given, installing the product to its tested details.
For buildings such as Church of St Nicholas, older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking.

Signs you need fire rated sealant in Littlestone-on-Sea
Gaps around door frames are easily missed. The architrave hides the gap between frame and wall, so it’s easy to leave unsealed when doors are changed.

- Open joints along the top of partitions
- Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
- Open holes round services passing through fire walls
- Damaged fire sealant left by other trades
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as The Marsh Academy, fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.
