Is Mansbridge within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do I have to be there?
It depends on the job. Inside work needs someone to give us access, and for outside work we will agree access with you when we book.
Where are you based?
We work from Crawley. Our applicators cover Mansbridge.
How much does fire rated sealant cost in Mansbridge?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. To get one, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a short description of the job.
Will we have a record of what was sealed?
Yes. We note each location and the product that went in so it’s there for the next inspection.
Will you assess my building’s fire safety?
No. We work from the specification you give us and install to the manufacturer’s details.
Will it make a mess?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Fire rated sealant in Mansbridge
A fire seal relies on being installed the way it was tested: the right depth, the right backing and the right product for the substrate. That’s the part we focus on, one gap at a time. We work on pipe & cable gaps, plasterboard & masonry and door frames, and people most often call us about seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers and gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls.
In a smaller place like Mansbridge, commercial jobs tend to be smaller buildings: a pub, a surgery, a school, a shop or a few business units. Each needs the same care with its sealant as any larger building.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

Other services in Mansbridge
Commercial buildings in Mansbridge
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, and gaps around services are often picked up there. We work to the specification you are given, installing the product to its tested details.
Schools such as Mansbridge Primary School are buildings too, and fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in. Rented homes near Swaythling station change hands often, and fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through.

Can I do it myself?
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
For landlords and businesses
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
Why deal with it now?
Sealant is not the fix for every opening. Big openings, bundles of cables and plastic pipes may need batts, collars or wraps instead. If a gap isn’t suitable for sealant, we’ll tell you. Homes in smaller places like Mansbridge can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll explain what it covers.
Why book with us
- Old sealant always removed completely
- Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas
- Over 20 years’ experience
- We’re fully insured

What we do, step by step
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that is where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it usually takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. In a smaller place like Mansbridge, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.
- We plan the order of work and access, floor by floor or flat by flat.
- Old, damaged or unsuitable sealant is removed.
- Gaps are cleaned of dust and loose material.
- We apply and tool the sealant to the product’s tested detail.
- Locations and products are written up and any gaps unsuitable for sealant are flagged.
How to prepare
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Let us know about parking restrictions

Advice
How we quote for fire rated sealant
Jobs vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Access and height
- How many areas need sealing
- The number and length of the joints
Combining jobs into one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits. We will give you a clear quote for the lot.
What to tell us for a quote
To make quoting easier, let us know:
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- Where the property is
- If someone has resealed it before
- How we’d reach the joints
Call for a quick quote, or send an email if you’d rather. Describe what needs sealing and we will talk you through the work and send you a clear quote.
When to call us in Mansbridge
Gaps also open up as buildings move: a seal that cracks or pulls away leaves a path for smoke. Damage from cleaning, knocks and maintenance adds to it.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Fire stopping disturbed by later work
- Gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment
- Gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls
- Cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant
For buildings such as St. Mary's Church, older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking.
Before booking anyone
- How much experience the applicator has
- What guarantee comes with the work
- What the cure time is
- What insurance they hold
When it is not the sealant
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Doors that aren’t fire doors in the first place
- Deciding what fire stopping a building needs
- Openings too large for sealant, which need batts, boards or another system
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
