Fire rated sealant in Palmer's Green

Can I do it myself?

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right 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.

Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Palmer's Green

We don’t assess buildings or decide what fire stopping is needed; that comes from your fire risk assessor, designer or building control. Our part is applying the specified sealant carefully, to the right depth and with the right backing. If you have gaps left after a refit or conversion and unsealed gaps around fire door frames, we can put it right.

Somewhere as small as Palmer's Green, commercial jobs tend to be pubs, holiday lets, farm buildings or halls rather than offices. Each still needs sound sealant in its washrooms and kitchens, and fire-rated joints where services pass through walls.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

How it works

On the day, we start by going over the job with you. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. In a small place like Palmer's Green, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. Access to each area is agreed so the work can run in order.
  2. Old, damaged or unsuitable sealant is removed.
  3. Gaps are cleaned of dust and loose material.
  4. The fire-rated or intumescent sealant is applied and tooled to the tested detail.
  5. We record what was done and flag anything that needs a different system.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before
  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Yes, Palmer's Green is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.

Do you cover smaller places like Palmer's Green?

Yes. Palmer's Green is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Can you tell me which gaps need fire stopping?

No. We work from the specification you give us.

What does intumescent mean?

Fire-rated is the broad term for sealants tested for fire stopping. Intumescent types expand when heated, and they’re one option among several. The specification and the tested detail decide which is used.

Will there be a smell?

Possibly a little. It fades as the sealant cures.

Do you hold any approvals?

Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status and we’re fully insured too.

Can you quote for more than one area?

How much does fire rated sealant cost in Palmer's Green?

Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. For a quick quote, call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a short description of the job.

Different surfaces, different methods

Flats and HMOs

In flats and HMOs, the walls and floors between homes and common areas need sealing where services pass through. We seal the gaps your assessor has identified, flat by flat if needed.

Door frames

Our work is the joint between frame and wall. Doors, seals and closers are for a door specialist.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.

Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.

When something else is needed

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Large holes that need a different fire-stopping system
  • Deciding what fire stopping a building needs
  • Problems with the door itself rather than the gap around the frame

If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we seal

  • Pipe & cable gaps
  • Linear gaps
  • Door frames
  • Flats & HMOs
  • Plasterboard & masonry
  • Service penetrations

What affects the cost of fire rated sealant

The quote reflects the job in front of us. We take into account:

  • Whether there’s mould to deal with
  • The amount of work
  • When we can work, for business premises
  • How many areas need sealing

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. Your quote takes all of that into account.

Asking for a quote

Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Try to tell us:

  • The rough size of the job
  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
  • Pictures of the joints, sent by email
  • The address or postcode of the job

A good description makes for an accurate quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is, and add photos by email if you can.

What happens if it’s left?

Items left open on a fire risk assessment tend to come back at the next review. Getting them done and written up means you can show the action was taken. Older cottages and farmhouses around Palmer's Green can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before any work starts.

What fire rated sealant looks like in Palmer's 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, and gaps around services are often picked up there. We apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details.

For buildings such as Parish Church of All Saints, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building. Managing a site like Brenchley and Matfield Church of England Primary School? Then service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment. Letting a property close to Paddock Wood station? Then fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through.
