Fire rated sealant in Steward's Green
Until it’s heated, intumescent sealant behaves like an ordinary sealant; then it swells to help close the gap. The right product depends on the gap size, the substrate and what passes through. We are often asked to deal with damaged fire sealant left by other trades and open joints along the top of partitions, on door frames, pipe & cable gaps and plasterboard & masonry.
In a village or hamlet like Steward's Green, commercial work is more likely to be a pub, a farm shop, holiday lets or a village hall than an office block. Each still needs sound sealant in its washrooms and kitchens, and fire-rated joints where services pass through walls.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

What fire rated sealant looks like in Steward's Green
There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Steward's Green. For hotels, a room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on. 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.
Community buildings like Church of St John the Baptist are part of the picture too: service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.

How the visit works
On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before work begins. The work normally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. Somewhere as small as Steward's Green, access is often the only tricky part. 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.
- We put in whatever backing or fill the product detail specifies.
- The sealant goes in to the depth its detail sets, then it’s tooled off.
- We record the locations and products used for your records.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the work
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Advice
Your questions about fire rated sealant in Steward's Green
Will you come out to Steward's Green?
Yes, Steward's Green is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you work in hotels near Steward's Green?
Yes, we work for hotels as well as homes and businesses. Rooms can be done a few at a time, so the building stays open.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure your landlord agrees.
Do you certify the fire stopping?
We don’t certify fire stopping or quote ratings. We apply the specified product to the manufacturer’s details and giving you a record of where it went.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Let us know what needs doing and where. If we need more, we will ask.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status, and we are fully insured.
Should I try DIY first?
Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
Do I have to be there?
That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access.
Common problems we fix in Steward's Green
Much fire stopping is hidden: above ceilings, inside risers and behind panels. Because nobody sees it, gaps go unnoticed until an assessor or surveyor looks.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment
- Cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant
- New service routes left unsealed after building work
- Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Ivy Chimneys Primary School, service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether you can choose the colour
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- Is VAT in the price?
Different surfaces, different methods
Door frames
The gap between a door frame and the wall around it needs sealing as well as the door itself. We seal that gap with a fire-rated sealant suited to the frame and wall.
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.
What happens if it’s left?
Leaving a gap until a refurbishment comes round can mean years with it open. On its own, sealing it now is a small job. In a small place like Steward's Green, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, plus any working-time requirements on site. Ask us for a quote and we will explain what it covers.

What sealant work can’t fix
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- A wall that is not a fire-resisting element to begin with
- Big openings where sealant alone isn’t the tested solution
- Assessing a building’s fire safety
If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What affects the cost of fire rated sealant
Your quote is based on your job. We look at:
- Access and height
- The number and length of the joints
- The number of rooms or windows
- When we can work, for business premises
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You’ll know the price before we begin.
What we need to know
To make quoting easier, please include:
- Where the property is
- How we’d reach the joints
- If someone has resealed it before
- What’s wrong with the joints now
It all starts with a short chat. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we will talk you through what we’d do. When it suits you, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
