Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Milton Regis
Door frame gaps, linear joints and holes around services all have their own details. We check the size and the substrate before choosing the product, then the sealant goes in to the depth the product’s details set. We work on linear gaps, service penetrations and pipe & cable gaps, and common reasons people get in touch are gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls and damaged fire sealant left by other trades.
Somewhere as small as Milton Regis, 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.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Milton Regis questions
Do you work for landlords with property near Sittingbourne station?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners, and several properties can go on one quote. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Is Milton Regis within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Is intumescent sealant the same as fire-rated sealant?
Fire-rated is the broad term for sealants tested for fire stopping. Intumescent types expand when heated, and they’re one of the options. We use whichever the specification and tested details call for.
Is there any odour?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, but it fades. Ventilation helps.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No, it will not last. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. The old sealant has to come out completely.
How much does fire rated sealant cost in Milton Regis?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. For a quick quote, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a short description of the job.
Do you seal gaps around fire door frames?
Yes. The joint between frame and wall is sealed with a fire-rated sealant following the tested details. The door leaf and its hardware need a door specialist.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes. There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, wherever you are.
Surface by surface
Service penetrations
Wherever a service goes through a fire-resisting wall or floor, there’s a gap around it. We seal it with a product tested for that service and gap size.
Plasterboard walls
Many fire-resisting walls in flats, offices and conversions are plasterboard. The sealant has to be one tested in plasterboard for each gap size.
How it works
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access, and the area is left clean. For a village or hamlet like Milton Regis, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First we work through your list or survey, measuring each gap and checking what it’s formed in.
- We remove any old or unsuitable filler and clean the gap.
- Backing or fill is fitted where the product’s tested detail calls for it.
- Fire-rated or intumescent sealant is applied to the right depth and tooled.
- Finally, we list where we worked and what we used, for your records.
Preparing for the visit
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

Related advice
Signs you need fire rated sealant in Milton Regis
Sealant applied too thin, without the backing its detail needs, or onto dust won’t perform as it was tested. Rushed fire stopping is common, especially where it was squeezed in at the end of a project.
The problems people usually mention when they call include:
- Open joints along the top of partitions
- Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
- Unsealed gaps around fire door frames
- Fire seals that have cracked with movement
For buildings such as Church of All Saints, older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking.

What fire rated sealant looks like in Milton Regis
For seaside hotels, guest houses and holiday lets around Milton Regis, 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 apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details.
If you let a flat or house near Sittingbourne station, new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant. If you look after a building such as Sunny Bank Primary School, service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.

Why deal with it now?
Sealant isn’t 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. In a small place like Milton Regis, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

Aftercare tips
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Store the list of sealed gaps with your building paperwork
- Don’t paint over fire sealant until it has cured
- Report cracked or damaged seals as soon as you notice them
- Take pictures of fire stopping before ceilings or boxing go back
Include fire stopping in your regular building checks. Look for cracks, gaps or sealant that has been cut or pulled out and have them put right.
Small gaps around services are simple to deal with while there are only a few. Over time, more work adds more holes and the list grows.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
