Aftercare tips
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Keep pictures of seals that will be hidden
- Check whether a sealant can be painted before decorating over it
- Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
- Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks
Include fire stopping in your regular building checks. Look for cracks, gaps or sealant that has been cut or pulled out and get them seen to.
When you plan work that goes through walls or ceilings, plan the fire stopping too. Doing it at the time avoids leaving gaps behind.

The process
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and explain the cure time. The work normally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are, depending on the size of the job. For a village or hamlet like Satmar, the journey is planned in advance: 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.
- We begin by agreeing the list of gaps from your assessor’s or designer’s requirements.
- We measure every gap and note what it’s in and what passes through.
- Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out and the faces cleaned.
- We fit backing where needed and apply the fire-rated sealant to depth.
- We hand over a list of locations and products for your records.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Mention any parking rules near the property

Fire rated sealant around Satmar
For seaside hotels, guest houses and holiday lets around Satmar, busy months put washrooms and kitchens under pressure, so it’s worth checking the sealant before the busiest weeks. 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 buildings such as St Mary's Church, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Capel-le-Ferne Primary School, service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.

When to call us in Satmar
Gaps also open up as buildings move: a seal that cracks or pulls away leaves a path for smoke. Damage from cleaning, knocks and maintenance adds to it.
Look out for these signs:
- Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
- Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
- Sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list
- Open gaps behind door architraves
Rented homes near Folkestone Central station change hands often, and new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant.

Surface by surface
Masonry and concrete
Brick, block and concrete walls and floors are sealed with products tested in masonry. We clean out dust and debris before sealing so the seal has something sound to bond to.
Service penetrations
New gaps tend to show up where services have been added. Old or unsuitable filler comes out before the right sealant goes in over any backing the detail calls for.
What we cannot put right
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Doors that aren’t fire doors in the first place
- Walls or floors that weren’t built to resist fire
- Sign-off of the building, which sits with building control or your assessor
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Your questions about fire rated sealant in Satmar
Will you come out to Satmar?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

Can I do it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, always, and completely. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
