Common questions in Rowfant

Do you work for landlords with property near Three Bridges station?

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.

Do you work for hotels and guest houses in Rowfant?

Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. A room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.

Is it messy?

Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.

Do you provide details of the products used?

Yes. We note each location and the product that went in, so you have it on file.

Is there any odour?

Some sealants have a smell while they cure, but it fades. Opening a window helps.

Are you insured?

Yes. We are fully insured.

How long does fire rated sealant take?

It depends on the size of the job, but most jobs take a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. We’ll give you a better idea when we quote.

Can you tell me how many minutes the seal will last?

Ratings and certificates aren’t something we issue. The performance comes from the product’s tested details and the specification from your assessor or designer; we install to those details and record what we did.

How we handle fire rated sealant in Rowfant

We do not assess buildings or decide what fire stopping is needed; that comes from your fire risk assessor, designer or building control. Our part is applying the specified sealant carefully, to the right depth and with the right backing. If you’re dealing with open joints along the top of partitions and sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list, we can put it right.

Work in a small place like Rowfant is planned ahead, journey included, so the job can fit around bookings, guests or opening times where possible.

Big or small, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee.

When to call us in Rowfant

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.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Holes left by a change of layout
  • Open joints along the top of partitions
  • Unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall
  • Damaged fire sealant left by other trades

If you let a flat or house near Three Bridges station, any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.

How to choose a mastic man

Different surfaces, different methods

Flats and HMOs

In flats and HMOs, the walls and floors between homes and common areas need sealing where services pass through. We seal the gaps your assessor has identified room by room.

Service penetrations

Different services need different details: metal pipes, cables and plastic pipes aren’t treated the same. Each one is sealed to the product’s tested detail and we flag any that need another system.

How the visit works

At the end, we look at the finished work together and explain the cure time. The visit itself generally 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. Somewhere like Rowfant needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. Access to each area is agreed so the work can run in order.
  2. We take out any damaged or unsuitable sealant.
  3. Gaps are cleaned of dust and loose material.
  4. The fire-rated or intumescent sealant is applied and tooled to the tested detail.
  5. Locations and products are written up and any gaps unsuitable for sealant are flagged.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before

What fire rated sealant looks like in Rowfant

Rowfant has hotels and guest accommodation in and around it. Hotel work can be planned room by room, with out-of-hours working where needed. Workplaces and the common parts of blocks of flats in England need a fire risk assessment under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, and gaps around services are often picked up there. We work to the specification you’re given, installing the product to its tested details.

Managing a site like Turners Hill CofE Primary School? Then gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices. Community buildings like All Saints Parish Church are part of the picture too: service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.

Leave it or put it right?

Leaving a gap until a refurbishment comes round can mean years with it open. On its own, sealing it now is a small job that does not depend on other work. Older cottages and farmhouses around Rowfant can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

We do not show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote.

Quotes for fire rated sealant in Rowfant

The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:

  • Any mould that needs treating
  • When we can work, for business premises
  • Whether the work is at height
  • The old material and how stubborn it is

Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You’ll know the price before we begin.

Helping us quote

Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:

  • What’s wrong with the joints now
  • How we’d reach the joints
  • Photos by email, if that is easy
  • The rough size of the job

Call for a quick quote, or email us if that is easier. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we’ll talk you through the work before giving you a price.

Aftercare tips

Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Flag any open gap you spot round a pipe or cable
  • Check whether a sealant can be painted before decorating over it
  • Photograph sealed gaps before they’re covered up
  • Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks

Keep the record we give you with the building’s fire safety documents. It saves time at the next inspection or assessment.

If a fire risk assessment has flagged a gap, don’t leave it for the next one. Have it sealed, then keep the record so the item can be closed.
