Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Park Wood
In flats, HMOs, offices and schools, fire stopping is often disturbed by later work. A new cable run or a replaced pipe can leave an open hole behind. Those are the gaps we close, using a tested fire-rated product. Typical jobs include fire seals that have cracked with movement and ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed, across pipe & cable gaps, service penetrations and flats & HMOs.
Around a place like Park Wood, halls, schools and small businesses all have washrooms and kitchens used by many people. Their sealant and fire-rated joints are as important as those in any bigger building.
You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Do you need fire rated sealant in Park Wood?
Lots of unsealed gaps appear long after the building was completed. New cables, pipes and data runs go through walls and ceilings and the hole round the new service is not always sealed again.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Door frames with gaps between frame and wall
- Gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment
- Gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls
- Open joints along the top of partitions
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St Martin's Church, older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking.

New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’ll tell you before we start. Sealant will not put right:
- Walls or floors that weren’t built to resist fire
- Certifying a building or signing off its fire safety

Questions from Park Wood
I let a flat near Maidstone West station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear quote.
Is Park Wood within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We are an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Do you seal gaps around fire door frames?
Yes. We seal the gap between the frame and the wall with a suitable fire-rated product. The door, its seals and closer are for a door specialist.
Do you take on fire stopping in schools and offices?
Yes. We work in flats, HMOs, schools, offices and other commercial buildings, including occupied ones. We agree access and the order of work with you first.
Can I use normal mastic around a pipe through a fire wall?
No. A gap that needs fire stopping needs a tested fire-rated product.
What does intumescent mean?
An intumescent material expands when it’s heated. Many fire-rated sealants work this way, but not all.
What does fire rated sealant cost?
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.
What happens on the day
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. For a job in Park Wood, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.
- Access to each area is agreed so the work can run in order.
- Old, damaged or unsuitable sealant is removed.
- Gaps are cleaned of dust and loose material.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

What the job involves on each surface
Door frames
The gap between a door frame and the wall around it needs sealing as well as the door itself. We fill it with a fire-rated product suited to the materials either side.
Service penetrations
Service penetrations are where new gaps often appear. We clean out what’s there and reseal to the right depth.
Why it’s worth doing now in Park Wood
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. In an older home around Park Wood, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we will go through it with you.

Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:
- Which sealant suits the joint

- If someone has resealed it before
- The address or postcode of the job
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- The rough size of the job
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and add photos by email if you can.
Fire rated sealant around Park Wood
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, which is often where open fire-stopping gaps are first noticed. We work to the specification you are given, installing the product to its tested details.
Schools such as Tree Tops Primary Academy are buildings too, and service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment. Rented homes near Maidstone West station change hands often, and any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.
