Fire rated sealant in Peel Common, done properly
Where services or frames pass through a fire-resisting wall or floor, the gap around them needs a fire-rated seal. Each gap is sealed to the product maker’s tested detail for its size and substrate. We are often asked to deal with unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall and old fire sealant that has split or come away, on flats & HMOs, door frames and pipe & cable gaps.
For a small place like Peel Common, the journey and timings are agreed in advance, so it can be fitted around guests, customers or events where possible.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Peel Common as everywhere else we work.

What affects the cost of fire rated sealant
Jobs vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:
- When we can work, for business premises
- The type of sealant required
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
Doing several joints on one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.
Helping us quote
When you call or email, it’s useful to know:
- Roughly how big the job is
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- Whether it’s a home or a business

Surface by surface
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 flag it.
Linear gaps
Linear gaps run along the head of walls, at floor edges and between panels. We seal them to the tested detail, with backing where it’s needed.
Why it’s worth doing now in Peel Common
Leaving a gap until a refurbishment comes round can mean years with it open. On its own, sealing it now is a small job that doesn’t depend on other work. Around Peel Common, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

How to look after the new joints
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Keep general-purpose foam and caulk away from fire-stopping gaps
- Include hidden areas like risers in routine checks
- Get damaged fire seals looked at promptly
- Ask every contractor to reseal any fire stopping they disturb
Look at the sealed gaps as part of your routine walk-rounds. Watch for cracking, gaps or seals that have been disturbed and get them seen to.
Any job that breaks through a wall or ceiling should include resealing. Catching it then saves a separate visit later.
DIY versus a professional finish
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
What happens on the day
When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. In a small place like Peel Common, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We start with the survey or action list, checking the size and surfaces of every gap.
- 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.
- Fire-rated or intumescent sealant is applied to the right depth and tooled.
- Finally, we list where we worked and what we used, for your records.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Clear the area around the work

Questions from Peel Common
Will you come out to Peel Common?
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.

Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
Where are you based?
Our base is Crawley, with over 20 years’ experience. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
Is it messy?
Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
What do you put in the joint?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, picked for each joint. We explain the product when we quote.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old sealant, and it traps any mould or water underneath. We remove it all first.
Do you carry out fire risk assessments?
No. Your fire risk assessor, designer or building control decides that. Our job is applying the sealant to their specification.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before applying anything new.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Fire risk assessments, which need a qualified assessor
- Fire doors that need new seals, closers or hardware
- Large holes that need a different fire-stopping system
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think.

Fire rated sealant around Peel Common
If you run a hotel, guest house or holiday let in a coastal place like Peel Common, busy months put washrooms and kitchens under pressure, so it’s worth checking the sealant before the busiest weeks. 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 Peel Common Mission Church, older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Peel Common Junior School, service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.
