How we handle fire rated sealant in Mytchett
Intumescent sealant looks much like any other sealant until it gets hot; then it swells to help close the gap. Which product suits a gap depends on its width, the materials either side and what runs through it, so we follow the tested detail for each one. If you have joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey and gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs, we can help.
Commercial work around a smaller place like Mytchett normally means a pub, a shop, a school or small business units rather than office blocks. The work is the same as in a big building, just on a smaller scale.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

Leave it or put it right?
Squirting in whichever sealant is nearest does not make a fire seal. A fire-rated product only performs as tested when it’s installed to its tested detail, which is why we match the product and the method to each gap. Homes in smaller places like Mytchett can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before any work starts.
Why Mytchett clients choose us
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
- Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet
- Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme
- A 12-month guarantee on all work

Workplaces and buildings in Mytchett
There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Mytchett. For hotels, a room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on. 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.
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of St Andrew, older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking. For landlords with property near Farnborough North station, new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant. Managing a site like Mytchett Primary School? Then service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.

What affects the quote in Mytchett
Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:
- When we can work, for business premises
- Whether the work is at height
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- The product the joint needs
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
Asking for a quote
What to tell us when you ask for a quote:
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- The address or postcode of the job
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- Whether it’s a home or a business

What the job involves on each surface
Door frames
A door can only do its job if the gap behind its frame is sealed too. We fill it with a fire-rated product suited to the materials either side.
Flats and HMOs
In occupied buildings, we plan the order of work with you. We agree access to each flat and the common parts before we start.
Mytchett questions
Is Mytchett within the area you cover?
Yes. Mytchett is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
I let a flat near Farnborough North station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No, and we never do. It may look fine at first, but the new bead soon lifts. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
Can you give us a record of the work?
Yes. We note each location and the product that went in, so you have it on file.
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. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes. There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, wherever you are.
Will it make a mess?
No. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
When it isn’t the sealant
In fairness, some problems need a different trade:
- Sign-off of the building, which sits with building control or your assessor
- Big openings where sealant alone is not the tested solution
- A wall that is not a fire-resisting element to begin with
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.

Aftercare tips
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Check whether a sealant can be painted before decorating over it
- Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
- Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks
- Don’t fill fire-stopping gaps with ordinary foam or silicone
File the record of locations and products with your fire safety paperwork. It helps whoever checks the building next.
Any job that breaks through a wall or ceiling should include resealing. Catching it then saves a separate visit later.

- Old, damaged or unsuitable sealant is removed.
- Gaps are cleaned of dust and loose material.
- We apply and tool the sealant to the product’s tested detail.
