The process
There is not much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The job generally takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building from start to finish. In a small place like Stick Hill, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We go through the gaps on your list or survey and check each one’s size and substrate.
- Anything that isn’t fit for the job comes out, and the gap is cleaned.
- We put in whatever backing or fill the product detail specifies.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Mention any tricky access
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Clear the area around the work

Advice
Fire rated sealant in Stick Hill
Fire stopping only performs as intended if it’s done to the detail: correct depth, correct backing and a product suited to the surfaces. That’s the part we focus on. If you have ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed and open holes round services passing through fire walls, we can put it right, on flats & HMOs, plasterboard & masonry and pipe & cable gaps alike.
Work in a small place like Stick Hill is planned ahead, journey included, so the job can fit around bookings, guests or opening times where possible.
You get a 12-month guarantee, the same in Stick Hill as everywhere else we work.

Commercial buildings in Stick 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, which is often where open fire-stopping gaps are first noticed. We apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details.
Community buildings like Church of the Holy Trinity are part of the picture too: older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking. Rented homes near Hever station change hands often, and fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through.

Stick Hill questions
Is Stick Hill within the area you cover?

Will it make a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints, and the area is left clean when we finish.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
Can I do it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Is standard sealant good enough for a fire gap?
No. Standard sealants are not made or tested to stop fire. We cut it out and reseal with a fire-rated product.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and you will get one quote.
What do you put in the joint?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we’ll explain our choice.
Leave it or put it right?
Squirting in whichever sealant is nearest doesn’t make a fire seal. Fire-rated products are tested in set gap sizes, depths and substrates, which is why we match the product and the method to each gap. Older cottages and farmhouses around Stick Hill can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
The cost depends on the amount of work, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

How the job changes by surface
Masonry and concrete
Holes through concrete and block are rarely neat. We check the gap size around the service to make sure it suits the product.
Flats and HMOs
In flats and HMOs, the walls and floors between homes and common areas need sealing where services pass through. We work through the gaps on your assessment.
Aftercare tips
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Ask which product was used before you paint
- Plan fire stopping into any work that goes through walls or floors
- Flag any open gap you spot round a pipe or cable
- Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
Any fire seal that is cut or drilled needs resealing to its tested detail. New services through a sealed wall should include fire stopping in the plan.
Open gaps do not only matter in a fire: noise, draughts and even pests can come through too. Sealing them early helps on every front.
Should I try it myself first?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
