How it works
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we are treating, so you can get on with your day. Expect the work to take a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. A visit to Onslow Village is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- First we work through your list or survey, measuring each gap and checking what it’s formed in.
- Anything that is not fit for the job comes out, and the gap is cleaned.
- Backing or fill is fitted where the product’s tested detail calls for it.
- The sealant goes in to the depth its detail sets, then it’s tooled off.
- Locations and products are noted so you have them on file.
Before we arrive
- Mention any tricky access
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Mention any parking rules near the property

Fire rated sealant in Onslow Village, done properly
Later work by other trades often breaks through fire stopping, especially in flats, HMOs, offices and schools. A new cable run or a replaced pipe can leave an open hole behind. We seal them with a product tested for that kind of gap. Typical jobs include standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap and door frames with gaps between frame and wall, across linear gaps, service penetrations and flats & HMOs.
Community buildings, schools and small businesses around places like Onslow Village have washrooms and kitchens that see a lot of use. Sealant and fire-rated joints there matter as much as in any larger building.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee, so you’re covered after we’ve gone.

Keeping the joints in good condition
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Check whether a sealant can be painted before decorating over it
- Include hidden areas like risers in routine checks
- File the fire-stopping record where your assessor can find it
- Plan fire stopping into any work that goes through walls or floors
File the record of locations and products with your fire safety paperwork. It saves time at the next inspection or assessment.
A gap left open in a fire-resisting wall or floor lets smoke spread in ways the building wasn’t designed for. Closing it is generally a straightforward job.
Workplaces and buildings in Onslow Village
In England, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires a fire risk assessment for workplaces and for the common parts of blocks of flats, and gaps around services are often picked up there. We work to the specification you are given, installing the product to its tested details. Onslow Village has hotels and guest accommodation in and around it. Hotel work can be planned room by room, with out-of-hours working where needed.
Rented homes near Guildford 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 Onslow Infant School are buildings too, and service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.

Where do you work from?
We work from Crawley. We cover Onslow Village and the rest of Surrey, along with the rest of our area.
How long does fire rated sealant take?
As a guide, most jobs take from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. Bigger jobs take longer, and we’ll tell you how long to expect.
Do you seal gaps around fire door frames?
Yes. The joint between frame and wall is sealed with a fire-rated sealant. The door leaf and its hardware need a door specialist.
How do I get a quote for fire rated sealant in Onslow Village?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. We agree the price before any work begins.
Which products do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what we’re using.
What we’re called out for in Onslow Village
Over time, buildings change layout and use. Conversions to flats and HMOs, and office refits, create new walls and new routes for services, with gaps to match.
People normally contact us after spotting one of these:
- Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
- Unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall
- Holes left by a change of layout
- Joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey
For buildings such as All Saints' Church, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.
What to look for in a quote
- What guarantee comes with the work
- What happens if the job turns out different
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
DIY versus a professional finish
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
What affects the quote in Onslow Village
Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The number of rooms or windows
- The amount of work
- The type of sealant required
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.
What to tell us for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- The problem you’ve noticed
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- The address or postcode of the job
- Whether it’s a home or a business

Different surfaces, different methods
Linear gaps
Gaps along the top of partitions are easy to miss above a ceiling. We work along the whole run.
Service penetrations
A copper pipe, a cable and a plastic pipe can all need different fire-stopping details. We follow the manufacturer’s tested detail for each, and tell you if sealant alone isn’t the right fix.
