Commercial buildings in Old Shoreham
For seaside hotels, guest houses and holiday lets around Old Shoreham, busy months put washrooms and kitchens under pressure, so it’s worth checking the sealant before the busiest weeks. 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 work to the specification you are given, installing the product to its tested details.
Rented homes near Shoreham-By-Sea station change hands often, and any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product. If you look after a building such as Swiss Gardens Primary School, fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.

Old Shoreham questions
Do you cover smaller places like Old Shoreham?
Yes, Old Shoreham is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you cover Old Shoreham for fire rated sealant?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Old Shoreham is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with our work in that time, tell us and we will put it right.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
Yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available for many products, and we agree the colour with you before we start.
Where are you based?
We’re based in Crawley, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
What do you put in the joint?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we will explain our choice.
Do you carry out fire risk assessments?
No. That is for a fire risk assessor, designer or building control. Our job is applying the sealant to their specification.
Do I have to be there?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How it works
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we’ll get on with it. The work itself takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. For a village or hamlet like Old Shoreham, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We start with the survey or action list, checking the size and surfaces of every gap.
- Old or unsuitable sealant is cut out and the gap cleaned.
- Where the tested detail needs backing or fill, we fit it.
- We apply the fire-rated or intumescent sealant to the specified depth and tool it.
- We record the locations and products used for your records.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the work
- Mention any tricky access
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Related advice
Keeping the joints in good condition
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Ask every contractor to reseal any fire stopping they disturb
- File the fire-stopping record where your assessor can find it
- Photograph sealed gaps before they’re covered up
- Keep general-purpose foam and caulk away from fire-stopping gaps
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. Catching it then saves a separate visit later.
What sealant work can’t fix
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we will tell you before we start. Sealant will not put right:
- Fire doors that need new seals, closers or hardware
- Issuing a fire rating or certificate for a building
- A wall that is not a fire-resisting element to begin with
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Why it’s worth doing now in Old Shoreham
An open gap in a fire-resisting wall is a route for smoke and fire. Sealing it properly restores what the wall was there to do, and the sealing itself is often a contained piece of work. In a small place like Old Shoreham, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first and give you a clear price before work begins.

Surface by surface
Linear gaps
Linear gaps run along the head of walls, at floor edges and between panels. We seal them to the tested detail, with backing where it’s needed.
Flats and HMOs
Conversions usually leave a mix of old and new service holes. We seal the ones on your specification with a tested product and record where they are.
What we are called out for in Old Shoreham
Buildings are refitted and reconfigured over the years. Conversions to flats and HMOs, and office refits, create new walls and new routes for services, with gaps to match.
The problems people normally mention when they call are:
- Joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey
- Fire stopping disturbed by later work
- Gaps filled with a product that isn’t fire-rated
- Cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant
For buildings such as St Nicolas' Church, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.
