How we handle fire rated sealant in Storrington
A fire seal relies on being installed the way it was tested: the right depth, the right backing and the right product for the substrate. That’s the part we focus on, one gap at a time. We’re often asked to deal with gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment and gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls, on door frames, flats & HMOs and service penetrations.
Around a place like Storrington, halls, schools and small businesses all have washrooms and kitchens used by many people. Their sealant and fire-rated joints are as important as those in any bigger building.
Every job is covered by our 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in West Sussex.

When something else is needed
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Openings too large for sealant, which need batts, boards or another system
- Problems with the door itself rather than the gap around the frame
- Deciding what fire stopping a building needs

Storrington: your questions answered
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Pulborough station?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before work begins.
Do you take on hotel work around Storrington?
Yes. Hotel and guest-house work is part of what we do. Work can be planned room by room, and out-of-hours working can be arranged.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, we can. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
Do I have to be there?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What sealant do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference.
Can ordinary silicone be used in a fire-stopping gap?
No. It might close the gap, but it isn’t a fire-rated seal. A tested fire-rated product is needed, or ask us to do it.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We are ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.

Yes. We work in Storrington and the rest of West Sussex, as part of our work across South East England, London and Scotland. For a quote, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.
What the job involves on each surface
Service penetrations
Wherever a service goes through a fire-resisting wall or floor, there’s a gap around it. We seal it with a product tested for that service and gap size.
Linear gaps
Long, narrow gaps appear where walls meet slabs and ceilings. We seal them to the tested detail, with backing where it’s needed.
Keeping the joints in good condition
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Never patch a fire seal with standard sealant
- File the fire-stopping record where your assessor can find it
- Flag any open gap you spot round a pipe or cable
- Include hidden areas like risers in routine checks
Leave the sealant to cure fully before painting near it. Some fire-rated sealants can be painted and some can’t, so ask us which we used.
Small gaps around services are simple to deal with while there are only a few. Over time, more work adds more holes.

What fire rated sealant looks like in Storrington
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 apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details. Storrington has hotels and guest accommodation in and around it. For hotels, a room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.
Letting a property close to Pulborough station? Then new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant. Community buildings like The Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin are part of the picture too: gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there. Schools such as Storrington Primary School are buildings too, and service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Why deal with it now?
Items left open on a fire risk assessment tend to come back at the next review. Having them sealed and recorded now means you can show the action was taken. In a smaller place like Storrington, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.
Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, carry out the job and tidy away. Most jobs take a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. Parking around Storrington is normally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.
- Before starting, we go through the specification or action list with you.
- We measure every gap and note what it’s in and what passes through.
- Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out and the gap cleaned.
- We fit backing where needed and apply the fire-rated sealant to depth.
- We hand over a list of locations and products for your records.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
