About our fire rated sealant in Roydon
Intumescent sealant looks much like any other sealant until it gets hot; then it swells to help close the gap. The right product depends on the gap size, the substrate and what passes through. If you’re dealing with sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list and linear gaps at the head of walls, we can help.
Somewhere as small as Roydon, commercial jobs tend to be pubs, holiday lets, farm buildings or halls rather than offices. Each still needs sound sealant in its washrooms and kitchens, and fire-rated joints where services pass through walls.

FAQs for Roydon
Is Roydon within the area you cover?
Yes. Roydon is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Roydon station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Will it make a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.
Is it worth trying it myself?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.
Can you tell me how many minutes the seal will last?
Ratings and certification sit with the product’s test evidence and whoever specified the work. We apply the specified product to the manufacturer’s details and list the locations and products for you.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, always. Each job is guaranteed for twelve months.
Will there be a smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, which fades as it sets. Ventilation helps.
Do you carry out fire risk assessments?
No. That’s for a fire risk assessor, designer or building control. Our job is applying the sealant to their specification.

What else we do in Roydon
Keeping the joints in good condition
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Ask every contractor to reseal any fire stopping they disturb
- Take pictures of fire stopping before ceilings or boxing go back
- Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks
- Allow for resealing whenever new services are run
Include fire stopping in your regular building checks. Watch for cracking, gaps or seals that have been disturbed and get them seen to.
Small gaps around services are simple to deal with while there are only a few. Leave them and each new job adds another hole.
Honest limits
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:
- Problems with the door itself rather than the gap around the frame
- Construction that doesn’t provide fire resistance on its own
- Issuing a fire rating or certificate for a building
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we seal
- Service penetrations
- Door frames

Why it’s worth doing now in Roydon
If an assessor has flagged gaps, it makes sense to close them before the next review. Having them sealed and recorded now means you can show the action was taken. Around Roydon, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.

Landlord and commercial work in Roydon

We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
The process
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and tidy away. Most jobs take from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. Somewhere as small as Roydon, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We start with the survey or action list, checking the size and surfaces of every gap.
- We remove any old or unsuitable filler and clean the gap.
- We put in whatever backing or fill the product detail specifies.
- We apply the fire-rated or intumescent sealant to the specified depth and tool it.
- Finally, we list where we worked and what we used, for your records.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Tell us if parking is tricky
How to get a quote

Advice
What we are called out for in Roydon
Lots of unsealed gaps appear long after the building was completed. Electricians, plumbers and data installers drill through walls and ceilings and the hole round the new service isn’t always sealed again.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Open holes round services passing through fire walls
- Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
- Joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey
- Ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed
If you let a flat or house near Roydon station, new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant.
What to look for in a quote
- What guarantee comes with the work
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- How hidden problems are handled
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
Fire rated sealant around Roydon
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.
If you look after a building such as Roydon Primary School, fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in. For buildings such as St Peter's Church, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.
