Fire rated sealant in Moor Street
A gap around a door frame, a linear joint at the head of a wall and a hole round a pipe are each sealed differently. We check the size and the substrate before choosing the product, then apply it to the depth its tested detail calls for. If you have old fire sealant that has split or come away and open holes round services passing through fire walls, we can help, whatever the surface.
If you have holiday lets, a converted barn used for business or a community building near Moor Street, washroom and kitchen sealant and any fire-rated joints need the same attention as anywhere.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

How it works
All our tools and materials come with us in the van. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. Somewhere like Moor Street needs a little journey planning: 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.
- We put in whatever backing or fill the product detail specifies.
- We apply the fire-rated or intumescent sealant to the specified depth and tool it.
- Locations and products are noted so you have them on file.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Clear the area around the work
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

When something else is needed
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:
- Assessing a building’s fire safety
- Openings too large for sealant, which need batts, boards or another system
- Fire doors that need new seals, closers or hardware
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Linear gaps
- Door frames
- Pipe & cable gaps
- Service penetrations
- Flats & HMOs
- Plasterboard & masonry
Why deal with it now?
Items left open on a fire risk assessment tend to come back at the next review. Having them sealed and recorded now means you can show the action was taken. In a small place like Moor Street, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask about the job first.
Why us?
- Old sealant always removed completely
- Trusted Arbo and Everbuild sealants
- 20+ years of sealant experience
- Domestic, commercial and hotel work

Do you need fire rated sealant in Moor Street?
Door frames are a common weak spot. The architrave hides the gap between frame and wall, so it’s easy to leave unsealed when doors are changed.
The problems people normally mention when they call are:
- Gaps left after a refit or conversion
- Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
- Fire seals that have cracked with movement
- Gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment
If you look after a building such as Leigh Academy Rainham, fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.

Workplaces and buildings in Moor Street
For seaside hotels, guest houses and holiday lets around Moor Street, 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, and gaps around services are often picked up there. We apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details.
For buildings such as Church of St Margaret, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building. Rented homes near Rainham (Kent) station change hands often, and new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant.

Looking after it afterwards
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
- Don’t fill fire-stopping gaps with ordinary foam or silicone
- Include hidden areas like risers in routine checks
- Get damaged fire seals looked at promptly
Tell other trades that the gaps have been sealed, and make sure anything they disturb is resealed with a suitable product. Later work is a common cause of damaged fire stopping.
When you plan work that goes through walls or ceilings, plan the fire stopping too. Catching it then saves a separate visit later.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
