Fire rated sealant around Purfleet-on-Thames
Purfleet-on-Thames has hotels and guest accommodation in and around it. For hotels, a room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on. 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.
Managing a site like Purfleet Primary Academy? Then fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in. For buildings such as St Stephen's Church, older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking.

What sealant work can’t fix
In fairness, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- Certifying a building or signing off its fire safety
- Problems with the door itself rather than the gap around the frame
- Assessing a building’s fire safety
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Common problems we fix in Purfleet-on-Thames
Buildings are refitted and reconfigured over the years. Conversions to flats and HMOs, and office refits, create new walls and new routes for services, with gaps to match.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls
- Linear gaps at the head of walls
- New service routes left unsealed after building work
- Fire stopping disturbed by later work
Letting a property close to Purfleet station? Then fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through.

What affects the cost of fire rated sealant
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We take into account:
- The number and length of the joints
- Access and height
- Which sealant suits the joint
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.
What to tell us for a quote
When you contact us, these details help:
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- If someone has resealed it before
We quote each job on its own. Simply call 0345 464 0079 or email us and describe the job and send photos if you have them.
How the job changes by surface
Linear gaps
Gaps along the top of partitions are easy to miss above a ceiling. We seal them along their full length.
Service penetrations
Wherever a service goes through a fire-resisting wall or floor, there’s a gap around it. We seal it with a product tested for that service and gap size.
Questions from Purfleet-on-Thames
Do you work for hotels and guest houses in Purfleet-on-Thames?
Yes, we work for hotels as well as homes and businesses. A room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.
Is Purfleet-on-Thames within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Only a few details: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. After that, simply call 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Can you tell me how many minutes the seal will last?
We do not give ratings or certificates for our work. Your specification sets the requirement, and we fit a product whose tested details meet it with a record of each location.
What’s the difference between intumescent and fire-rated sealant?
Fire-rated sealant covers any sealant tested for use in fire stopping. Intumescent ones swell in heat, and they’re one of the options. The specification and the tested detail decide which is used.
How long will you be here?
A typical job takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes. All our work carries a one-year guarantee.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Purfleet-on-Thames
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Leave it or put it right?
For some gaps, sealant is not the right answer and another system is needed. Big openings, bundles of cables and plastic pipes may need batts, collars or wraps instead. We’ll say so if a gap needs something other than sealant. In a smaller place like Purfleet-on-Thames, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

- Any non-fire-rated filler is removed.
- The specified fire-rated sealant goes in over any backing its detail requires.
