How we handle fire rated sealant in Muddles Green
Filling a fire-stopping gap with standard silicone or caulk does not make it fire-rated. We cut out the wrong material and the gap is resealed with a product tested for that use. If you are dealing with open holes round services passing through fire walls and open gaps behind door architraves, we can put it right.
For a small place like Muddles Green, the journey and timings are agreed in advance, so it can be fitted around guests, clients or events where possible.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee.

Landlord and commercial work in Muddles Green
From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
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 doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Why it’s worth doing now in Muddles Green
Fire-rated sealants are less forgiving than ordinary ones. How it’s installed changes how it performs, so we follow the maker’s details on every gap. Older cottages and farmhouses around Muddles Green can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

What fire rated sealant looks like in Muddles Green
Workplaces and the common parts of blocks of flats in England need a fire risk assessment under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, 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.
Letting a property close to Berwick (Sussex) station? Then fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as The Parish Church, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.

Questions from Muddles Green
Is Muddles Green in your area for fire rated sealant?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Muddles Green is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job.
Do you work for landlords with property near Berwick (Sussex) station?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we will send you a clear quote.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We’re fully insured.
Which products do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference.
How long does the job take?
Typically it takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. Bigger jobs take longer, and we’ll say how long yours will take.
Is intumescent sealant the same as fire-rated sealant?
Fire-rated is the broad term for sealants tested for fire stopping. Intumescent types expand when heated, and they’re one option among several. We use whichever the specification and tested details call for.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, it won’t last. It may look fine at first, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Just list everything you need.
Common problems we fix in Muddles Green
Much fire stopping is hidden: above ceilings, inside risers and behind panels. Out of view, damage sits unnoticed until someone inspects.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
- Open gaps behind door architraves
- Joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey
- Unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall
If you look after a building such as Chiddingly Primary School, gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices.

Aftercare tips
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Take pictures of fire stopping before ceilings or boxing go back
- Include hidden areas like risers in routine checks
- Tell trades working in the building that fire seals must be put back
- Include fire stopping when you schedule refits
Any fire seal that is cut or drilled needs resealing to its tested detail. If you need new services through a sealed wall, plan the fire stopping as part of the job.
Any job that breaks through a wall or ceiling should include resealing. Doing it at the time avoids leaving gaps behind.
What we do, step by step
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before work begins. The work usually takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. Somewhere as small as Muddles Green, access is often the only tricky part. 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.
- Old, damaged or unsuitable sealant is removed.
- Dust and loose debris are cleaned from each gap.
- We apply and tool the sealant to the product’s tested detail.
- Locations and products are written up and any gaps unsuitable for sealant are flagged.
