Fire rated sealant in Swanley Village, done properly
We often work from an action list drawn up by a fire risk assessor. If you share the list, we can quote for the gaps that need fire-rated sealant. We work on flats & HMOs, door frames and linear gaps, and the jobs we see most are joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey and unsealed gaps around fire door frames.
In a village or hamlet like Swanley Village, commercial work is more likely to be a pub, a farm shop, holiday lets or a village hall than an office block. They all have washrooms, kitchens and service openings that need the right sealant.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Fire rated sealant in Swanley Village: local notes

Rented homes near Swanley station change hands often, and fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through.

What the job involves on each surface
Masonry and concrete
Masonry is dusty and porous, so preparation matters. The gap is cleaned and backed where required.
Door frames
We deal with the gap around the frame, not the door. Doors, seals and closers are for a door specialist and we will mention anything we notice.
How it works
When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. In a small place like Swanley Village, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- Before starting, we go through the specification or action list with you.
- Each gap is measured and its substrate and service noted.
- Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out and the faces cleaned.
- The specified fire-rated sealant goes in over any backing its detail requires.
- Every location is recorded with the product used for your records.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
Ask for a quote
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is.

Do you carry out fire risk assessments?

Can you work in occupied buildings?
Yes. Flats, HMOs, offices, schools and other occupied buildings are all part of our work. We agree access and the order of work with you first.
Do you provide details of the products used?
Yes. We record the locations we’ve sealed and the products used for your files.
Do you do fire sealant around door frames?
Yes. The joint between frame and wall is sealed with a fire-rated sealant, to the product’s details. The door, its seals and closer are for a door specialist.
Keeping the joints in good condition
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Look in service cupboards and ceiling voids from time to time
- Ask which product was used before you paint
- Ask every contractor to reseal any fire stopping they disturb
- File the fire-stopping record where your assessor can find it
Keep the record we give you with the building’s fire safety documents. It helps whoever checks the building next.
If a fire risk assessment has flagged a gap, do not leave it for the next one. Get it sealed and recorded so you can show it was dealt with.

When to call us in Swanley Village
Sealant applied too thin, without the backing its detail needs, or onto dust will not perform as it was tested. Rushed fire stopping is common, especially where it was squeezed in at the end of a project.
The most common problems we see are:
- Fire stopping disturbed by later work
- Joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey
- Linear gaps at the head of walls
- Fire seals that have cracked with movement
Managing a site like Downsview Community Primary School? Then service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.
