Fire rated sealant in Strood Green
Filling a fire-stopping gap with standard silicone or caulk does not make it fire-rated. We cut out the wrong material and the gap is resealed with a product tested for that use. Common call-outs are for ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed and gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls, on pipe & cable gaps, linear gaps and plasterboard & masonry.
If you have holiday lets, a converted barn used for business or a community building near Strood Green, washroom and kitchen sealant and any fire-rated joints need the same attention as anywhere.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Workplaces and buildings in Strood Green
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 are given, installing the product to its tested details.
Rented homes near Betchworth station change hands often, and any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product. For buildings such as Christ Church, older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking.

FAQs for Strood Green
Is Strood Green within the area you cover?
Yes. Strood Green is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Can you do fire rated sealant in Strood Green?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Strood Green is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing.
Which products do you use?
It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
What does fire rated sealant cost?
Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. To get one, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a short description of the job.
How long will you be here?
That depends on the amount of work, but as a guide it takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. We’ll tell you when we quote.
Will it make a mess?
No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
Can you tell me which gaps need fire stopping?
No, we don’t assess buildings. Once you have a specification or action list from your assessor or designer, we will quote for the sealant work on it.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
In most cases you can choose. We’ll explain which colours are available.
How to look after the new joints
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Include hidden areas like risers in routine checks
- Tell trades working in the building that fire seals must be put back
- Flag any open gap you spot round a pipe or cable
- Plan fire stopping into any work that goes through walls or floors
Do not drill through or remove a fire seal without putting it back properly. If you need new services through a sealed wall, plan the fire stopping as part of the job.
Open gaps don’t only matter in a fire: they also let noise, draughts and sometimes pests through. Sealing them early helps on every front.
The process
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, protect the area around them, carry out the job and clear up. It generally takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. Somewhere like Strood Green needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We plan the order of work and access, floor by floor or flat by flat.
- We take out any damaged or unsuitable sealant.
- Dust and loose debris are cleaned from each gap.
- The fire-rated or intumescent sealant is applied and tooled to the tested detail.
- Locations and products are written up and any gaps unsuitable for sealant are flagged.

Advice
When to call us in Strood Green
A lot of fire stopping is out of sight: above ceilings, inside risers and behind panels. Out of view, damage sits unnoticed until someone inspects.
The problems people normally mention when they call include:
- Gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment
- Holes left by a change of layout
- Open gaps behind door architraves
- Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
Managing a site like North Downs Primary School? Then gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices.

Why act early in Strood Green
A quick fill with any sealant to hand is not fire stopping. Fire-rated products are tested in set gap sizes, depths and substrates, so both the product and the method matter. In a small place like Strood Green, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.
