Fire rated sealant in Mud Row
Door frame gaps, linear joints and holes around services all have their own details. We check the size and the substrate before choosing the product, then the sealant goes in to the depth the product’s details set. Common call-outs are for joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey and standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap, on linear gaps, flats & HMOs and service penetrations.
For a small place like Mud Row, the journey and timings are agreed in advance, so the job can fit around bookings, guests or opening times where possible.

Commercial buildings in Mud Row
For seaside hotels, guest houses and holiday lets around Mud Row, heavy use in the busy months is hard on washroom and kitchen sealant, and any building work there should leave fire-rated joints made good. 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.
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of All Saints, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.

Leave it or put it right?
Fire-rated sealants are less forgiving than ordinary ones. Depth, backing and surface preparation all affect how a seal performs, and we work to the product details every time. In a small place like Mud Row, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Combining jobs into one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We’ll give you a clear price for the lot.

Common problems we fix in Mud Row
Much fire stopping is hidden: above ceilings, inside risers and behind panels. Because nobody sees it, gaps go unnoticed until an assessor or surveyor looks.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Open gaps behind door architraves
- Open holes round services passing through fire walls
- Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
- Sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Eastchurch Church of England Primary School, gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices.
What to look for in a quote
- Which colour the sealant will be
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
DIY versus a professional finish
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.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
What happens on the day
A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, do the work and tidy away. Most jobs take a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. In a small place like Mud Row, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We plan the order of work and access, floor by floor or flat by flat.
- We take out any damaged or unsuitable sealant.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

Advice
Different surfaces, different methods
Masonry and concrete
Masonry is dusty and porous, so preparation matters. We brush and vacuum the gap and use backing where the detail needs it before applying the sealant.
Flats and HMOs
Conversions normally leave a mix of old and new service holes. The gaps on your list are sealed with a fire-rated product and record where they are.
What affects the quote in Mud Row
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- How much there is to do
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- How many areas need sealing
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
What to tell us for a quote
When you contact us, these details help:
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- Photos by email, if that’s easy

Questions from Mud Row
Is there a guarantee on fire rated sealant in Mud Row?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Do you cover Mud Row for fire rated sealant?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Mud Row is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Can I do it myself?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.
Can you give us a record of the work?
Yes. Every gap we seal is listed with the product used, so you have it on file.
Do I need to be at home?
It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in.
Which products do you use?
It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
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 OK to seal over old sealant?
No. The old sealant always comes out first, so the new joint bonds to clean surfaces.
