What affects the quote in Newell Green
We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:
- Whether the work is at height
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- The size of the job
- When we can work, for business premises
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
What we need to know
What to tell us when you ask for a quote:
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- The problem you’ve noticed
- The type of property
- The address or postcode of the job
It all starts with a short chat. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we’ll explain how we’d tackle it. When it suits you, call 0345 464 0079 or email us.
How to look after the new joints
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Check whether a sealant can be painted before decorating over it
- Plan fire stopping into any work that goes through walls or floors
- Ask every contractor to reseal any fire stopping they disturb
- Report cracked or damaged seals as soon as you notice them
Don’t add foam, filler or ordinary sealant over a fire seal. If it needs repair, use the same type of product. We can tell you which product we used.
Any job that breaks through a wall or ceiling should include resealing. Doing it at the time avoids leaving gaps behind.
What the job involves on each surface
Door frames
We deal with the gap around the frame, not the door. The door leaf, its seals and closer need a door specialist.
Flats and HMOs
In occupied buildings, we plan the order of work with you. Access to flats and common areas is agreed in advance.
How the visit works
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and tell you how long to leave it. The visit itself generally takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access, depending on the amount of work. Somewhere like Newell Green needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- Access to each area is agreed so the work can run in order.
- Old, damaged or unsuitable sealant is removed.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Fire rated sealant around Newell 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, 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. Bracknell, which Newell Green is part of, is one of England’s post-war new towns. Bracknell was planned with its own industrial and business areas, so there are offices, units and workplaces not far from home. Their washrooms, kitchens and fire-rated joints need the same upkeep as anywhere.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Sandy Lane Primary School, service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment. Rented homes near Bracknell station change hands often, and new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant.

FAQs for Newell Green
Do you cover smaller places like Newell Green?
Yes, Newell Green is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Bracknell station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Can you tell me which gaps need fire stopping?
No. We follow the requirements from your assessor, designer or building control.
Which products do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, chosen to suit the joint. We will tell you what we are using and why.
Is intumescent sealant the same as fire-rated sealant?
Fire-rated sealant covers any sealant tested for use in fire stopping. Intumescent ones swell in heat, and they’re one option among several. We use whichever the specification and tested details call for.
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.
Do you do fire sealant around door frames?
Yes. The joint between frame and wall is sealed with a fire-rated sealant following the tested details. The door leaf and its hardware need a door specialist.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and we will quote it together.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
When it isn’t the sealant
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:
- A wall that is not a fire-resisting element to begin with
- Issuing a fire rating or certificate for a building
- Problems with the door itself rather than the gap around the frame
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we seal

Signs you need fire rated sealant in Newell Green
Sealant applied too thin, without the backing its detail needs, or onto dust won’t perform as it was tested. We see plenty of fire stopping that was hurried, especially where it was squeezed in at the end of a project.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Fire stopping disturbed by later work
- Holes left by a change of layout
- Open holes round services passing through fire walls
- Old fire sealant that has split or come away
For buildings such as Church of St Michael and All Angels, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.
