About our fire rated sealant in Mott's Mill

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. If you have standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap and sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list, we can put it right, on pipe & cable gaps, flats & HMOs and door frames alike.

In a village or hamlet like Mott's Mill, commercial work is more likely to be a pub, a farm shop, holiday lets or a village hall than an office block. They all have washrooms, kitchens and service openings that need the right sealant.

You get a 12-month guarantee, the same in Mott's Mill as everywhere else we work.

Fire rated sealant around Mott's Mill

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.

Managing a site like Groombridge St Thomas' Church of England Primary School? Then gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices. If you let a flat or house near Eridge station, any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.

What happens if it’s left?

Waiting for the next refit can leave a gap open for years. Sealing the gap now is a contained job on its own that doesn’t depend on other work. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Mott's Mill, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.

When to call us in Mott's Mill

In some buildings the gap was filled with the wrong thing in the first place: general-purpose foam, everyday silicone or caulk in a place that needed a tested fire seal. It looks sealed, but it isn’t fire-rated.

It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:

  • Fire seals that have cracked with movement
  • Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
  • Holes left by a change of layout
  • Linear gaps at the head of walls

Community buildings like Church of St Thomas the Apostle are part of the picture too: gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.

Before you book anyone

  • Is VAT in the price?
  • Whether the sealant suits the joint
  • What preparation is included
  • Which colour the sealant will be

Choosing a sealant specialist

The process

We bring everything the job needs with us, so there’s nothing for you to buy. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. In a small place like Mott's Mill, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We plan the order of work and access, floor by floor or flat by flat.
  2. Old, damaged or unsuitable sealant is removed.
  3. Dust and loose debris are cleaned from each gap.
  4. We apply and tool the sealant to the product’s tested detail.
  5. We record what was done and flag anything that needs a different system.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before
  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

What affects the cost of fire rated sealant

We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:

  • The amount of work
  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • Which sealant suits the joint
  • Whether the work is at height

There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote.

What to tell us for a quote

There’s no need for technical detail. Just tell us:

  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
  • Where the job is, and your postcode
  • Photos by email, if that is easy
  • How we’d reach the joints

Getting a quote is simple: tell us what needs doing and where. A few photos by email make the job easier to understand, and we’ll come back to you with a quote.

Can I do it myself?

If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.

Common questions in Mott's Mill

Do you cover smaller places like Mott's Mill?

Yes, Mott's Mill is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

Can you do fire rated sealant in Mott's Mill?

Which products do you use?

The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.

What fire rating will the seal have?

Ratings and certification sit with the product’s test evidence and whoever specified the work. We apply the specified product to the manufacturer’s details and giving you a record of where it went.

Is intumescent sealant the same as fire-rated sealant?

Intumescent means it swells when heated, helping close the gap. It’s one type of fire-rated sealant; the right one depends on the gap and what passes through it.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes. Every job comes with our one-year guarantee.

Where are you based?

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure your landlord agrees.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple:

  • Allow for resealing whenever new services are run
  • File the fire-stopping record where your assessor can find it
  • Ask which product was used before you paint
  • Photograph sealed gaps before they’re covered up

Include fire stopping in your regular building checks. Watch for cracking, gaps or seals that have been disturbed and have them put right.

A gap left open in a fire-resisting wall or floor lets smoke spread in ways the building wasn’t designed for. Closing it is generally a straightforward job.
