How we handle fire rated sealant in Sedrup
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, with a record of the products and locations if you need one. If you are dealing with gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls and gaps filled with a product that isn’t fire-rated, we can put it right.
For holiday lets, converted business premises or a community building near Sedrup, washroom and kitchen sealant and any fire-rated joints need the same attention as anywhere.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

Workplaces and buildings in Sedrup
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 Stone Church of England Combined School, gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St Mary's Church, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.

Common questions in Sedrup
Is Sedrup in your area for fire rated sealant?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Sedrup is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing.
Will you come out to Sedrup?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
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.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
Can tenants book the work?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you match the sealant colour?
We help you choose a colour that suits. The product needed can limit the range.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before applying anything new.
How long does fire rated sealant take?
Typically it takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. Bigger jobs take longer, and we’ll tell you how long to expect.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Flag any open gap you spot round a pipe or cable
- Allow for resealing whenever new services are run
- Ask every contractor to reseal any fire stopping they disturb
- Don’t paint over fire sealant until it has cured
Leave the sealant to cure fully before painting near it. Some fire-rated sealants can be painted and some can’t.
It’s easiest to seal gaps while they’re few and easy to reach. Over time, more work adds more holes and the list grows.
When to call us in Sedrup
Many open fire-stopping gaps are made after the building is finished. Electricians, plumbers and data installers drill through walls and ceilings and the hole round the new service is not always sealed again.
Look out for any of the following:
- Gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs
- Gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment
- New service routes left unsealed after building work
- Door frames with gaps between frame and wall
For landlords with property near Aylesbury station, fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through.
What your quote should include

Landlord and commercial work in Sedrup
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. We can quote for more than one property at once.
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
Surface by surface
Linear gaps
Long, narrow gaps appear where walls meet slabs and ceilings. They’re sealed with a fire-rated sealant over backing where the detail calls for it.
Plasterboard walls
Many fire-resisting walls in flats, offices and conversions are plasterboard. We use a product tested in that kind of wall for the gap we are sealing.
