Fire rated sealant in Moss End
Deciding which gaps need fire stopping is not our role; that comes from your fire risk assessor, designer or building control. Our part is applying the specified sealant carefully, to the right depth and with the right backing. We work on linear gaps, plasterboard & masonry and door frames, and common reasons people get in touch are open holes round services passing through fire walls and door frames with gaps between frame and wall.
If you have holiday lets, a converted barn used for business or a community building near Moss End, washroom and kitchen sealant and any fire-rated joints need the same attention as anywhere.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, in Moss End and everywhere else we cover.

Common problems we fix in Moss End
Over time, buildings change layout and use. A house turned into flats or an HMO, or an office split into smaller units, brings new walls, new service routes and new gaps.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Holes left by a change of layout
- Sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list
- Gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls
- Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
If you look after a building such as Garth Hill College, fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.
Questions to ask before booking
- How much experience the applicator has
- Is VAT in the price?
- What happens if the job turns out different
- How the colour is chosen
Keeping the joints in good condition
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Allow for resealing whenever new services are run
- Ask every contractor to reseal any fire stopping they disturb
- Don’t fill fire-stopping gaps with ordinary foam or silicone
- File the fire-stopping record where your assessor can find it
File the record of locations and products with your fire safety paperwork. It saves time at the next inspection or assessment.
When you plan work that goes through walls or ceilings, plan the fire stopping too. Doing it at the time avoids leaving gaps behind.
Fire rated sealant around Moss End
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 apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details.
Letting a property close to Bracknell station? Then fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through. Community buildings like Church of St Michael and All Angels are part of the picture too: older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking.

Questions from Moss End
I let a flat near Bracknell station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Is Moss End within the area you cover?
Yes, Moss End is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Where are you based?
We’re based in Crawley, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
What fire rating will the seal have?
We do not issue ratings or certificates ourselves. The performance comes from the product’s tested details and the specification from your assessor or designer, and we install to them.
What does fire rated sealant cost?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. We agree the price before any work begins.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, with over 20 years’ experience in sealant work.
Will it make a mess?
No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
How long will you be here?
As a guide, most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. Bigger jobs take longer, and we’ll say how long yours will take.
Can I do it myself?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.

How we quote for fire rated sealant
You will get a clear quote before work begins. It takes into account:
- The type of sealant required
- The number of rooms or windows
- The number and length of the joints
- Access and height
Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re unsure, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.
What to tell us for a quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- How we’d reach the joints
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
We quote each job on its own, so start by telling us what you need. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details, and pictures are welcome.
The process
Good joint work is mostly preparation, so that is where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. In a small place like Moss End, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- Before starting, we go through the specification or action list with you.
- Each gap is measured and its substrate and service noted.
- Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out and the faces cleaned.
- The specified fire-rated sealant goes in over any backing its detail requires.
- We hand over a list of locations and products for your records.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

Advice
What sealant work can’t fix
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:
- Big openings where sealant alone isn’t the tested solution
- Walls or floors that weren’t built to resist fire
- Problems with the door itself rather than the gap around the frame
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.
