How we handle fire rated sealant in Ranmore Common
Fire-rated sealant closes the gaps around pipes, cables and frames where they pass through a fire-resisting wall or floor. Each gap is sealed to the product maker’s tested detail for its size and substrate. Typical jobs include cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant and fire stopping disturbed by later work, across linear gaps, plasterboard & masonry and pipe & cable gaps.
If you have holiday lets, a converted barn used for business or a community building near Ranmore Common, the washrooms, kitchens and any fire-rated joints need the same care as a big site.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

How it works
You do not need to clear the whole room or building before we come, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the job takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are for a typical job. Somewhere like Ranmore Common needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We begin by agreeing the list of gaps from your assessor’s or designer’s requirements.
- Each gap is measured and its substrate and service noted.
- Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out and the gap cleaned.
- We fit backing where needed and apply the fire-rated sealant to depth.
- Every location is recorded with the product used for your records.
How to prepare
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

What the job involves on each surface
Service penetrations
Service penetrations are where new gaps often appear. Old or unsuitable filler comes out before the right sealant goes in.
Door frames
We deal with the gap around the frame, not the door. The door leaf, its seals and closer need a door specialist and we’ll mention anything we notice.
Your questions about fire rated sealant in Ranmore Common
Is Ranmore Common within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
I let a flat near Dorking West station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Do you carry out fire risk assessments?
No. We work from the specification you give us, and apply each product to its tested details.
What do you put in the joint?
It depends on the joint: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, always, and completely. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured.
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. Then ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Common problems we fix in Ranmore Common
If the sealant is too shallow, has the wrong backing or sits on a dusty surface, it isn’t installed as tested. Rushed fire stopping is common particularly when it was the last job before handover.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Open gaps behind door architraves
- Unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall
- Linear gaps at the head of walls
- Old fire sealant that has split or come away
If you let a flat or house near Dorking West station, any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.

Fire rated sealant in Ranmore Common: local notes
Ranmore Common has hotels and guest accommodation in and around it. Hotel work can be planned room by room, with out-of-hours working where needed. 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 work to the specification you are given, installing the product to its tested details.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Surrey Hills All Saints Primary School, service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment. For buildings such as Church of St Barnabas, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.

Should I try it myself first?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Check whether a sealant can be painted before decorating over it
- File the fire-stopping record where your assessor can find it
- Keep general-purpose foam and caulk away from fire-stopping gaps
- Flag any open gap you spot round a pipe or cable
Avoid covering a sealed gap with anything that is not part of the tested detail. Repairs should use a matching fire-rated product. We can tell you which product we used.
Open gaps don’t only matter in a fire: they also let noise, draughts and sometimes pests through. Sealing them early helps on every front.
