About our fire rated sealant in Peters Village
Ordinary silicone or decorators’ caulk in a fire-stopping gap is not a fire-rated seal. Anything unsuitable comes out first and the gap is resealed with a product tested for that use. We work on linear gaps, plasterboard & masonry and door frames, and the jobs we see most are old fire sealant that has split or come away and joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey.
Around a place like Peters Village, halls, schools and small businesses all have washrooms and kitchens used by many people. Sealant and fire-rated joints there matter as much as in any larger building.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, whatever its size.

Keeping the joints in good condition
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks
- Check whether a sealant can be painted before decorating over it
- Include fire stopping when you schedule refits
- Report cracked or damaged seals as soon as you notice them
Do not add foam, filler or ordinary sealant over a fire seal. Repairs should use a matching fire-rated product. We can tell you which product we used.
Small gaps around services are simple to deal with while there are only a few. Over time, more work adds more holes.
What affects the cost of fire rated sealant
For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- Access and height
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Which sealant suits the joint
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
Helping us quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- The problem you’ve noticed
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints.
How the visit works
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building in most cases. In a smaller place like Peters Village, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.
- Access to each area is agreed so the work can run in order.
- We take out any damaged or unsuitable sealant.
- Dust and loose debris are cleaned from each gap.
- We apply and tool the sealant to the product’s tested detail.
- We record what was done and flag anything that needs a different system.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
How to get a quote
We do not publish a price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, we give you a clear quote for your job. To arrange one, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Signs you need fire rated sealant in Peters Village
In some buildings the gap was filled with the wrong thing in the first place: general-purpose foam, everyday silicone or caulk where a fire-rated seal was needed. It looks sealed, but it is not fire-rated.
The most common problems we see are:
- Fire stopping disturbed by later work
- Unsealed gaps around fire door frames
- Cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant
- Gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment
If you look after a building such as Halling Primary School, fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.
What your quote should include
- When the joint can take water or movement
- Whether you can choose the colour
- How hidden problems are handled
- What insurance they hold
Why deal with it now?
Fire-rated sealants are less forgiving than ordinary ones. How it’s installed changes how it performs, and we work to the product details every time. Homes in smaller places like Peters Village can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask a few questions first and send you a clear quote before work begins.
What you get with us
- ARBOMaster approved applicator
- Full insurance on every job
- We leave the area clean and tidy
- 20+ years of sealant experience
