Fire-rated sealant in Peasmarsh, East Sussex
Problem with your fire-stopping gaps in Peasmarsh? We cut out the old, prepare the joints and apply the right sealant, with a 12-month guarantee.
- Fire stopping disturbed by later work
- Open joints along the top of partitions
- Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
Can I do it myself?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Peasmarsh
Filling a fire-stopping gap with standard silicone or caulk doesn’t make it fire-rated. Anything unsuitable comes out first and reseal with a fire-rated product tested for that kind of gap. We’re often asked to deal with damaged fire sealant left by other trades and gaps left after a refit or conversion, across service penetrations, plasterboard & masonry and pipe & cable gaps.
For a small place like Peasmarsh, the journey and timings are agreed in advance, so it can be fitted around guests, customers or events where possible.
You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

How it works
You don’t need to clear the whole room or building before we come, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the work takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access for a typical job. For a village or hamlet like Peasmarsh, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- 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.
- Locations and products are written up and any gaps unsuitable for sealant are flagged.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Clear the area around the work

Landlords, agents and businesses in Peasmarsh
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report. Several properties can be quoted together.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Tell us the address, the job and how access works.
What the job involves on each surface
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 we flag any that need another system.
Plasterboard walls
Service holes in plasterboard are often rough and oversized. Where a hole is bigger than the sealant’s tested range, it needs another approach, and we will tell you.

Fire rated sealant in Peasmarsh: local notes
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 apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details.
Schools such as Peasmarsh Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in. If you let a flat or house near Rye station, fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as The Parish Church of St Peter and St Paul, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.

Looking after it afterwards
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Ask which product was used before you paint
- Report cracked or damaged seals as soon as you notice them
- Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks
- Take photos of fire stopping before ceilings or boxing go back
Include fire stopping in your regular building checks. Look for cracks, gaps or sealant that has been cut or pulled out and have them put right.
Leave a fire-stopping gap open and smoke can move through the building much more easily. Sealing it early is a simple step to take.
Why act early in Peasmarsh
Doing it once, properly, beats doing it twice. If the details weren’t followed, the seal may need redoing when the building is next checked. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Peasmarsh, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
