Sheet Hill: your questions answered
Can you do fire rated sealant in Sheet Hill?
Yes, Sheet Hill is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we will send you a clear quote.
Is Sheet Hill within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
What does fire rated sealant cost?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. For a quick quote, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a short description of the job.
Do you work in flats, HMOs and commercial buildings?
Yes. Occupied flats, HMOs, offices and schools are all fine and we plan access around the people using them. Out-of-hours work can be arranged.
Is there any odour?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, which fades as it sets. Opening a window helps.
Can you fill the gap behind a fire door frame?
Yes, if the gap is within the product’s tested range. Our work is the gap around the frame, and we’ll mention anything we notice about the door.
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.
Do you provide details of the products used?
Yes. Locations and products are written up when we finish. If you need pictures or a set layout, ask when you get a quote.

Fire rated sealant around Sheet Hill
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.
Community buildings like Plaxtol Church are part of the picture too: gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Plaxtol Primary School, service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.

Can I do it myself?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
What we can’t put right
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Issuing a fire rating or certificate for a building
- Openings too large for sealant, which need batts, boards or another system
- A wall that isn’t a fire-resisting element to begin with
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Linear gaps

Flats and HMOs
Working in occupied flats needs some planning. We agree access to each flat and the common parts before any work starts.
