Fire rated sealant in Park Farm, done properly
A gap around a door frame, a linear joint at the head of a wall and a hole round a pipe are each sealed differently. Measuring the gap and checking what it’s made of comes first, then apply it to the depth its tested detail calls for. If you have gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls and open joints along the top of partitions, we can help, whatever the surface.
Community buildings, schools and small businesses around places like Park Farm have washrooms and kitchens that see a lot of use. Their sealant and fire-rated joints are as important as those in any bigger building.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

What affects the quote in Park Farm
For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- The type of sealant required
- Any working-time requirements on site
- Access and height
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
What to tell us for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Where the property is
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- How we’d reach the joints
There’s no standard price list. Instead, we give you a clear price for your job. To arrange one, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Signs you need fire rated sealant in Park Farm
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 particularly when it was the last job before handover.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Damaged fire sealant left by other trades
- Open gaps behind door architraves
- Sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list
- Open holes round services passing through fire walls
Schools such as Kingsnorth Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices.

Aftercare tips
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- File the fire-stopping record where your assessor can find it
- Don’t fill fire-stopping gaps with ordinary foam or silicone
- Ask which product was used before you paint
- Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
Avoid covering a sealed gap with anything that isn’t part of the tested detail. Repairs should use a matching fire-rated product. Ask us if you are not sure which product was used.
Small gaps around services are simple to deal with while there are only a few. Over time, more work adds more holes and the job gets bigger.
The process
At the end, we look at the finished work together. The visit itself normally takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access, depending on the size of the job. For a job in Park Farm, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- We plan the order of work and access, floor by floor or flat by flat.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

What sealant work cannot fix
We’d rather tell you now than do work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Doors that are not fire doors in the first place
- Fire risk assessments, which need a qualified assessor
- Issuing a fire rating or certificate for a building
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

We apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details.
Community buildings like Church of St Michael are part of the picture too: service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building. For landlords with property near Ashford International station, fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through.

Can I do it myself?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
