Can I do it myself?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward 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 Pin Green
Bigger jobs can be worked through in stages, flat by flat or floor by floor, noting the locations and products as we go. It gives you a list to keep with the building’s fire safety documents. Common call-outs are for ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed and new service routes left unsealed after building work, across flats & HMOs, pipe & cable gaps and linear gaps.
Community buildings, schools and small businesses around places like Pin Green 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.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Will you come out to Pin Green?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

No, assessment is not something we do. Once you have a specification or action list from your assessor or designer, we can quote for the fire-rated sealant items.

Is intumescent sealant the same as fire-rated sealant?
Intumescent describes a material that swells in heat. Intumescent sealants are a type of fire-rated sealant.
Can you give us a record of the work?
Yes. You get a list of where we worked and what we used for your files.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We are ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
How do I get a quote for fire rated sealant in Pin Green?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Ask us for a quote and we will talk you through it.
How to look after the new joints
Aftercare is simple:
- Keep the record of products and locations with your fire safety documents
- Report cracked or damaged seals as soon as you notice them
- Photograph sealed gaps before they’re covered up
- Never patch a fire seal with standard sealant
File the record of locations and products with your fire safety paperwork. It saves time at the next inspection or assessment.
Any job that breaks through a wall or ceiling should include resealing. Doing it at the time avoids leaving gaps behind.
How the visit works
When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. A visit to Pin Green is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.
- We start with the survey or action list, checking the size and surfaces of every gap.
- Old or unsuitable sealant is cut out and the gap cleaned.
- We put in whatever backing or fill the product detail specifies.
- The sealant goes in to the depth its detail sets, then it’s tooled off.
- Locations and products are noted so you have them on file.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Tell us about any water getting in

Related advice
What affects the cost of fire rated sealant
For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:
- The amount of work
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Any mould that needs treating
- Any working-time requirements on site
Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you’re unsure, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.
What to tell us for a quote
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Try to tell us:
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- If someone has resealed it before
We quote each job on its own, so the first step is telling us about yours. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details and send pictures if you have them.
Common problems we fix in Pin Green
Gaps also open up as buildings move: cracked or debonded sealant leaves an open route through the wall. Damage from cleaning, knocks and maintenance adds to it.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Gaps filled with a product that isn’t fire-rated
- Holes left by a change of layout
- Gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls
- Old fire sealant that has split or come away
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of Saint Nicholas, older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking.
What to look for in a quote
- What product goes in the joint
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- The length of the guarantee
- Are they insured?
How the job changes by surface
Masonry and concrete
Preparation counts on brick, block and concrete. The gap is cleaned and backed where required.
Door frames
A door can only do its job if the gap behind its frame is sealed too. We fill it with a fire-rated product suited to the materials either side.
Workplaces and buildings in Pin Green
Stevenage, which Pin Green is part of, is one of England’s post-war new towns. Stevenage was planned with its own industrial and business areas, so workplaces sit close to the homes. Their washrooms, kitchens and fire-rated joints need the same upkeep as anywhere. 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 apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Trotts Hill Primary and Nursery School, gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices. Rented homes near Stevenage station change hands often, and new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant.
