About our fire rated sealant in Stanmer
We can work through a building room by room or floor by floor, noting the locations and products as we go. That record is useful for your files and for whoever looks at the building next. If you are dealing with linear gaps at the head of walls and open holes round services passing through fire walls, we can help.
For holiday lets, converted business premises or a community building near Stanmer, washroom and kitchen sealant and any fire-rated joints need the same attention as anywhere.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after we’ve gone.

How to look after the new joints
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Photograph sealed gaps before they’re covered up
- Keep the record of products and locations with your fire safety documents
- Don’t fill fire-stopping gaps with ordinary foam or silicone
- Report cracked or damaged seals as soon as you notice them
Follow the cure time we give you before decorating over the sealant. Some fire-rated sealants can be painted and some cannot, so ask us which we used.
When you plan work that goes through walls or ceilings, plan the fire stopping too. Doing it at the time avoids leaving gaps behind.
What happens on the day
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The work itself takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building from start to finish. In a small place like Stanmer, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First we work through your list or survey, measuring each gap and checking what it’s formed in.
- We remove any old or unsuitable filler and clean the gap.
- Backing or fill is fitted where the product’s tested detail calls for it.
- We apply the fire-rated or intumescent sealant to the specified depth and tool it.
- We record the locations and products used for your records.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

Advice
Workplaces and buildings in Stanmer
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.
For buildings such as Stanmer Church, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there. If you let a flat or house near Falmer station, any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Coldean Primary School, gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices.

- Doors that aren’t fire doors in the first place

Stanmer: your questions answered
Do you cover smaller places like Stanmer?
Yes, Stanmer is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Is Stanmer in your area for fire rated sealant?
Yes, Stanmer is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Can you give us a record of the work?
Yes. We record the locations we have sealed and the products used.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
Yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available for many products, and we’ll agree it with you first.
Do I need to be at home?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Our base is in Crawley, West Sussex, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Of course. Doing several areas at once is usually more efficient.
Can I do it myself?
That depends on the joint. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Why it’s worth doing now in Stanmer
Doing it once, properly, beats doing it twice. If the details weren’t followed, the seal may need redoing when the building is next checked. Around Stanmer, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part.

Different surfaces, different methods
Plasterboard walls
We check that the board around the gap is sound. Loose material is removed so the sealant has a firm edge.
Linear gaps
Some linear gaps have to cope with movement as well as fire. The product and depth are chosen to suit both.
