Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Nevendon
Intumescent sealant looks much like any other sealant until it gets hot; then it swells to help close the gap. The right product depends on the gap size, the substrate and what passes through. We’re often asked to deal with cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant and holes left by a change of layout, on pipe & cable gaps, service penetrations and door frames.
Work in a small place like Nevendon is planned ahead, journey included, so the job can fit around bookings, guests or opening times where possible.
Our work is backed for twelve months.

Leave it or put it right?
Fire-rated sealants are less forgiving than ordinary ones. How it’s installed changes how it performs, and we work to the product details every time. Around Nevendon, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Doing several joints on one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.

Commercial buildings in Nevendon
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 work to the specification you’re given, installing the product to its tested details.
If you look after a building such as Abacus Primary School, fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of All Saints, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.

Common problems we fix in Nevendon
Sometimes the wrong product was used from the start: 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.
The problems people normally mention when they call include:
- Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
- New service routes left unsealed after building work
- Gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs
- Joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey
Rented homes near Wickford station change hands often, and new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant.
Before you book anyone

- What product goes in the joint

- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
When something else is needed
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Openings too large for sealant, which need batts, boards or another system
- Deciding what fire stopping a building needs
- Sign-off of the building, which sits with building control or your assessor

Common questions in Nevendon
Can you do fire rated sealant in Nevendon?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Nevendon is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing.
Do you work for landlords with property near Wickford station?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we will send you a clear quote.
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, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
What does fire rated sealant cost?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Ask us for a quote.
Can you tell me which gaps need fire stopping?
No, assessment is not something we do. When your assessor or designer has set out what’s needed, we can quote for the fire-rated sealant items.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Of course. Doing several areas at once is usually more efficient.
Do you seal gaps around fire door frames?
Yes. The joint between frame and wall is sealed with a fire-rated sealant. The door, its seals and closer are for a door specialist.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.
What affects the cost of fire rated sealant
You’ll get a clear quote before we start. It takes into account:
- Any mould that needs treating
- How many areas need sealing
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The number and length of the joints
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
What to tell us for a quote
When you call or email, these details help:
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- How we’d reach the joints
Quotes start with a quick conversation. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we’ll talk you through what we’d do. Whenever you’re ready, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep the record of products and locations with your fire safety documents
- Include hidden areas like risers in routine checks
- Keep general-purpose foam and caulk away from fire-stopping gaps
- Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
Do not drill through or remove a fire seal without putting it back properly. 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.

We protect the rest, and the work takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access for a typical job.
