Keeping the joints in good condition
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep general-purpose foam and caulk away from fire-stopping gaps
- File the fire-stopping record where your assessor can find it
- Ask every contractor to reseal any fire stopping they disturb
- Look in service cupboards and ceiling voids from time to time
Let contractors know where fire stopping has been done, and ask them to reseal anything they cut through. A lot of damaged fire stopping comes from later work.
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.

Fire rated sealant around Mountain Street
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 Mary, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building. Rented homes near Chilham station change hands often, and any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.

Why deal with it now?
An open gap in a fire-resisting wall is a route for smoke and fire. Sealing it properly restores what the wall was there to do, and the sealing itself is often a contained piece of work. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Mountain Street, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

What happens on the day
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, protect the area around them, do the work and clear up. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. Somewhere as small as Mountain Street, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We start with the survey or action list, checking the size and surfaces of every gap.
- Old or unsuitable sealant is cut out and the gap cleaned.
- Backing or fill is fitted where the product’s tested detail calls for it.
- The sealant goes in to the depth its detail sets, then it’s tooled off.
- Finally, we list where we worked and what we used, for your records.
How to prepare
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Clear the area around the work
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

Questions from Mountain Street
Is Mountain Street in your area for fire rated sealant?
Yes, Mountain Street is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear price.

Do you do fire sealant around door frames?
Yes. Gaps behind architraves are a common job for us. Doors, seals and closers need a door specialist.
Do you take on fire stopping in schools and offices?
Yes, whether the building is a school, an office, flats or an HMO, and whether it’s in use or not. Tell us how the building is used and we will plan around it.
Is it messy?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Is there any odour?
That depends on the sealant. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all, and any smell fades as they cure.
How long will you be here?
As a guide, most jobs take from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. Larger jobs naturally take longer.
Does someone need to be in?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we have agreed the job, you do not need to watch us work.
What affects the cost of fire rated sealant
Call for a quick quote. What matters most is:
- The number of rooms or windows
- How much there is to do
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Access and height
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
What we need to know
To make quoting easier, please include:
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- Whether it has been sealed before
- How we’d reach the joints

When it isn’t the sealant
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:
- Fire risk assessments, which need a qualified assessor
- A wall that isn’t a fire-resisting element to begin with
- 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 will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we seal

Flats and HMOs
Converted houses often have gaps around old and new services. We seal the ones on your specification with a tested product and the locations noted.
Linear gaps
Head-of-wall gaps are often hidden above suspended ceilings. We work along the whole run so there are no open sections left.
