Molash Fire Rated Sealant
We cover Molash for intumescent and fire-rated sealant around gaps, frames and service penetrations. Old sealant removed completely, joints prepared properly.
- Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
- Door frames with gaps between frame and wall
- Gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment
What affects the cost of fire rated sealant
For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Access and height
- The amount of work
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
What to tell us for a quote
To help us quote quickly, please include:
- Where the property is
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- A few pictures by email, if you can
Call for a quick quote, or send an email if you’d rather. Describe what needs sealing and we’ll talk you through the work and send you a clear quote.
Fire rated sealant in Molash
Ordinary silicone or decorators’ caulk in a fire-stopping gap isn’t a fire-rated seal. We cut out the wrong material and reseal with a fire-rated product tested for that kind of gap. If you’re dealing with old fire sealant that has split or come away and seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
For holiday lets, converted business premises or a community building near Molash, washroom and kitchen sealant and any fire-rated joints need the same attention as anywhere.
You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Why deal with it now?
Fire-rated sealants are less forgiving than ordinary ones. Depth, backing and surface preparation all affect how a seal performs, so we follow the maker’s details on every gap. Around Molash, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
We don’t show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a quick quote, please ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will talk you through it.

Aftercare tips
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Allow for resealing whenever new services are run
- Store the list of sealed gaps with your building paperwork
- Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
- Include hidden areas like risers in routine checks
Any fire seal that’s cut or drilled needs resealing to its tested detail. New services through a sealed wall should include fire stopping in the plan.
When you plan work that goes through walls or ceilings, plan the fire stopping too. Catching it then saves a separate visit later.
When it isn’t the sealant
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Assessing a building’s fire safety
- Walls or floors that weren’t built to resist fire
- 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 will give you a straight answer before booking.

Fire rated sealant in Molash: local notes
Workplaces and the common parts of blocks of flats in England need a fire risk assessment under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, 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 Church of St Peter, older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking. If you let a flat or house near Wye station, new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant.

How it works
When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work starts. The work usually takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. In a small place like Molash, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- Access to each area is agreed so the work can run in order.
- Old, damaged or unsuitable sealant is removed.
- Dust and loose debris are cleaned from each gap.
- The fire-rated or intumescent sealant is applied and tooled to the tested detail.
- We record what was done and flag anything that needs a different system.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear the area around the work

Landlords, agents and businesses in Molash
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy. Several properties can go on one quote.
DIY versus a professional finish
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Molash questions
I let a flat near Wye station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Will you come out to Molash?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can you tell me which gaps need fire stopping?
No, assessment is not something we do. Once you have a specification or action list from your assessor or designer, we can quote for the fire-rated sealant items.
Are you insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and we have been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
Do you provide details of the products used?
Yes. When the job is done, we give you the locations and products. Tell us if your assessor needs it in a particular format.
Should I try DIY first?
Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
Does someone need to be in?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
