Leave it or put it right?
Doing it once, properly, beats doing it twice. Work that does not follow the tested detail may have to come out again when the building is next checked. Older cottages and farmhouses around Mattingley can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.
Why us?
- Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet
- 12-month guarantee on every job
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
- More than 20 years in sealant work

Fire rated sealant in Mattingley, done properly
In flats, HMOs, offices and schools, fire stopping is often disturbed by later work. One new cable or pipe can leave a gap that nobody goes back to seal. We seal them with a product tested for that kind of gap. Common call-outs are for unsealed gaps around fire door frames and gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs, on service penetrations, flats & HMOs and linear gaps.
Somewhere as small as Mattingley, commercial jobs tend to be pubs, holiday lets, farm buildings or halls rather than offices. Each still needs sound sealant in its washrooms and kitchens, and fire-rated joints where services pass through walls.
A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What happens on the day
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you. The visit itself generally takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access, depending on the size of the job. In a small place like Mattingley, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We begin by agreeing the list of gaps from your assessor’s or designer’s requirements.
- Each gap is measured and its substrate and service noted.
- Any non-fire-rated filler is removed and the faces cleaned.
- The specified fire-rated sealant goes in over any backing its detail requires.
- Every location is recorded with the product used for your files.
How to prepare
- Mention any tricky access
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Common problems we fix in Mattingley
Movement in the structure can open gaps too: cracked or debonded sealant leaves an open route through the wall. Knocks, maintenance and building work damage it further.
Look out for these signs:
- Sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list
- Gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls
- Gaps left after a refit or conversion
- Damaged fire sealant left by other trades
For landlords with property near Hook station, any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether they’re fully insured
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- Whether VAT is included
- Which colour the sealant will be
Keeping the joints in good condition
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Store the list of sealed gaps with your building paperwork
- Keep photos of seals that will be hidden
- Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
- Include hidden areas like risers in routine checks
Leave the sealant to cure fully before painting near it. Some fire-rated sealants can be painted and some can’t and we will tell you which one you have.
It’s easiest to seal gaps while they’re few and easy to reach. Leave them and each new job adds another hole and the job gets bigger.
Fire rated sealant in Mattingley: local notes
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 buildings such as Mattingley Church, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.

What else we do in Mattingley
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Mattingley: your questions answered
Is Mattingley in your area for fire rated sealant?
Yes, Mattingley is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Hook station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
How long does fire rated sealant take?
Typically it takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. Bigger jobs take longer, and we’ll tell you how long to expect.
Will it make a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Can ordinary silicone be used in a fire-stopping gap?
No. It looks sealed but will not perform as fire stopping. Use a product tested for that gap and service and we can apply it for you.
Do the sealants smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, which fades as it sets. Ventilation helps.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status and we are fully insured too.
Can you give us a record of the work?
Yes. When the job is done, we give you the locations and products. If you need pictures or a set layout, ask when you get a quote.
Surface by surface
Door frames
Our work is the joint between frame and wall. Doors, seals and closers are for a door specialist and we’ll mention anything we notice.
Service penetrations
Pipes, cables and ducts passing through fire-resisting walls and floors each leave a gap. We seal it with a product tested for that service and gap size.
