Surface by surface
Door frames
The gap between a door frame and the wall around it needs sealing as well as the door itself. We seal that gap with a fire-rated sealant suited to the frame and wall.
Plasterboard walls
Service holes in plasterboard are often rough and oversized. Gaps that are too big for sealant alone need a different detail, and we will tell you.
Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Pond Park
Fire-rated sealant closes the gaps around pipes, cables and frames where they pass through a fire-resisting wall or floor. We apply intumescent and fire-rated sealants to the manufacturer’s tested details for each gap. We work on linear gaps, plasterboard & masonry and door frames, and the jobs we see most are open gaps behind door architraves and sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list.
Community buildings, schools and small businesses around places like Pond Park have washrooms and kitchens that see a lot of use. Sealant and fire-rated joints there matter as much as in any larger building.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Honest limits
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’ll tell you before we start. Sealant won’t put right:
- Construction that doesn’t provide fire resistance on its own
- Fire doors that need new seals, closers or hardware
- Certifying a building or signing off its fire safety
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer.

Aftercare tips
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Photograph sealed gaps before they’re covered up
- Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks
- Get damaged fire seals looked at promptly
- File the fire-stopping record where your assessor can find it
File the record of locations and products with your fire safety paperwork. It helps whoever checks the building next.
An open gap isn’t only a fire issue: they also let noise, draughts and sometimes pests through. Sealing them early helps on every front.
Can I do it myself?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.
What happens if it’s left?
Fire-rated sealants need more care than everyday sealant. How it’s installed changes how it performs, and we work to the product details every time. In an older home around Pond Park, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, and that is a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re unsure, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

Commercial buildings in Pond Park
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 Ivingswood Academy are buildings too, and service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment. Letting a property close to Amersham station? Then any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.

What happens on the day
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. In total, it generally takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. In a smaller place like Pond Park, 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.
- 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.
- Locations and products are written up and any gaps unsuitable for sealant are flagged.
Getting ready for the visit

How long will you be here?
It depends on the size of the job, but as a guide it takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. We’ll give you a better idea when we quote.

It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
