Fire rated sealant in Old Dean, done properly
Later work by other trades often breaks through fire stopping, especially in flats, HMOs, offices and schools. One new cable or pipe can leave a gap that nobody goes back to seal. Those are the gaps we close, using a tested fire-rated product. We work on pipe & cable gaps, linear gaps and flats & HMOs, and the jobs we see most are new service routes left unsealed after building work and standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap.
In a smaller place like Old Dean, commercial jobs tend to be smaller buildings: a pub, a surgery, a school, a shop or a few business units. Each needs the same care with its sealant as any larger building.
Every job comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Surrey.

Why it’s worth doing now in Old Dean
For some gaps, sealant isn’t the right answer and another system is needed. Large holes, cable bundles and plastic pipes can call for batts, collars or wraps. We will say so if a gap needs something other than sealant. In an older home around Old Dean, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, and that’s a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a quick quote, please call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Aftercare is simple:
- Allow for resealing whenever new services are run
- Report cracked or damaged seals as soon as you notice them
- Do not paint over fire sealant until it has cured
- Include hidden areas like risers in routine checks
Do not 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.

When to call us in Old Dean
If the sealant is too shallow, has the wrong backing or sits on a dusty surface, it isn’t installed as tested. Rushed fire stopping is common.
The problems people generally mention when they call are:
- Old fire sealant that has split or come away
- Joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey
- Ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed
- Linear gaps at the head of walls
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St Martin's Church, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.
Questions to ask before you book
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- How long the guarantee is
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not
- What insurance they hold
Fire rated sealant in Old Dean: local notes
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.
Rented homes near Camberley station change hands often, and fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through. Schools such as Collingwood College are buildings too, and gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices.

Quotes for fire rated sealant in Old Dean
There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- The product the joint needs
- Whether the work is at height
- When we can work, for business premises
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Ask us for a quote and we will go through it with you.
Asking for a quote
What to tell us when you ask for a quote:
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- Photos by email, if that’s easy

How the visit works
Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and tidy away. It generally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. In a smaller place like Old Dean, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.
- Before starting, we go through the specification or action list with you.
- Each gap is measured and its substrate and service noted.
- Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out and the faces cleaned.
- The specified fire-rated sealant goes in over any backing its detail requires.
- Every location is recorded with the product used for your records.
Before we arrive
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Move anything stored near the joints
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
