Fire rated sealant for Stuppington homes and businesses

Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Stuppington

We often work from an action list drawn up by a fire risk assessor for buildings in Stuppington. Send us the list or the survey and we will quote for the fire-rated sealant work on it. If you are dealing with gaps left after a refit or conversion and gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs, we can put it right, on door frames, pipe & cable gaps and plasterboard & masonry alike.

Somewhere as small as Stuppington, commercial jobs tend to be pubs, holiday lets, farm buildings or halls rather than offices. Each still needs sound sealant in its washrooms and kitchens, and fire-rated joints where services pass through walls.

All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, in Stuppington and everywhere else we cover.

How we quote for fire rated sealant

Call for a quick quote. What matters most is:

  • The number of rooms or windows
  • The number and length of the joints
  • Access and height
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove

We do not show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

What to tell us for a quote

To make quoting easier, please include:

  • Where the job is, and your postcode
  • Photos by email, if that’s easy
  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
  • Whether it’s a home or a business

Quotes start with a quick conversation. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we’ll talk you through what we’d do. Whenever you are ready, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

What we cannot put right

To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant will not fix:

  • Assessing a building’s fire safety
  • Fire doors that need new seals, closers or hardware
  • Walls or floors that weren’t built to resist fire

Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we seal

  • Door frames
  • Linear gaps
  • Service penetrations
  • Pipe & cable gaps
  • Flats & HMOs
  • Plasterboard & masonry

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple:

  • Photograph sealed gaps before they’re covered up
  • Get damaged fire seals looked at promptly
  • Allow for resealing whenever new services are run
  • Check whether a sealant can be painted before decorating over it

Leave the sealant to cure fully before painting near it. Not every fire-rated sealant takes paint and we’ll tell you which one you have.

Small gaps around services are simple to deal with while there are only a few. Over time, more work adds more holes and the list grows.

Stuppington questions

Do you work for landlords with property near Canterbury East station?

Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders, and several properties can go on one quote. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.

Will you come out to Stuppington?

Yes. Stuppington is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Where is Mr Mastic based?

We’re a Crawley-based firm, with over 20 years’ experience. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.

Do you guarantee your work?

Yes: twelve months. If anything is not right with the work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Do I have to be there?

It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.

Do you do fire sealant around door frames?

Yes. The joint between frame and wall is sealed with a fire-rated sealant following the tested details. The door, its seals and closer are for a door specialist.

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. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.

Can you tell me which gaps need fire stopping?

No, assessment isn’t something we do. Once you have a specification or action list from your assessor or designer, we can quote for the fire-rated sealant items.

Signs you need fire rated sealant in Stuppington

A lot of fire stopping is out of sight: in ceiling voids, service risers and behind boxing. Out of view, damage sits unnoticed until someone inspects.

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:

  • Open holes round services passing through fire walls
  • Old fire sealant that has split or come away
  • Ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed
  • Linear gaps at the head of walls

If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of St Nicholas, older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking.

10 questions to ask before booking

Commercial buildings in Stuppington

There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Stuppington. Hotel work can be planned room by room, with out-of-hours working where needed. 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, 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.

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Simon Langton Grammar School for Boys, gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices. Rented homes near Canterbury East station change hands often, and any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.

What happens on the day

We keep the work tidy and contained to the area we are working on. The job usually takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. In a small place like Stuppington, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We start with the survey or action list, checking the size and surfaces of every gap.
  2. Anything that isn’t fit for the job comes out, and the gap is cleaned.
  3. Backing or fill is fitted where the product’s tested detail calls for it.
  4. Fire-rated or intumescent sealant is applied to the right depth and tooled.
  5. We record the locations and products used for your records.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any tricky access
  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

DIY sealant or a professional job?

Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.

If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
