Fire rated sealant in Redford
In flats, HMOs, offices and schools, fire stopping is often disturbed by later work. One new cable or pipe can leave a gap that nobody goes back to seal. We seal them with a product tested for that kind of gap. Typical jobs include open holes round services passing through fire walls and joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey, across pipe & cable gaps, plasterboard & masonry and service penetrations.
If you have holiday lets, a converted barn used for business or a community building near Redford, the washrooms, kitchens and any fire-rated joints need the same care as a big site.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

Why deal with it now?
If an assessor has flagged gaps, it makes sense to close them before the next review. Having them sealed and recorded now gives you evidence that the item was dealt with. In a small place like Redford, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Doing several joints on one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We will send you a clear quote for the lot.

What happens on the day

The work normally takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access, depending on the size of the job. For a village or hamlet like Redford, the journey is planned in advance: 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.

Quotes for fire rated sealant in Redford
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We look at:
- Any mould that needs treating
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- The size of the job
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.
What to tell us for a quote
You don’t need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- The type of property
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
If you are in Redford and need fire rated sealant, call 0345 464 0079 or email us. A short description of the job and where it is helps us quote, and we’ll agree the price before any work begins.
Looking after it afterwards
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Keep pictures of seals that will be hidden
- Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks
- Don’t paint over fire sealant until it has cured
- Keep the record of products and locations with your fire safety documents
Follow the cure time we give you before decorating over the sealant. Not every fire-rated sealant takes paint.
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.
Your questions about fire rated sealant in Redford

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. 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 cover smaller places like Redford?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we tidy up before we go.
How long will you be here?
A typical job takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building, including preparation and clearing up. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
What do you put in the joint?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, picked for each joint. We explain the product when we quote.
Do you take on fire stopping in schools and offices?
Yes. We regularly work in flats, HMOs, schools and offices while they’re in use. Out-of-hours work can be arranged.
What does intumescent mean?
An intumescent sealant expands when it gets hot. Intumescent sealants are one kind of fire-rated sealant; which product suits depends on the gap, the substrate and the service.
Does someone need to be in?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that generally means someone at home.

Can I do it myself?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
