How the visit works
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building, and the area is left clean. For a village or hamlet like Tendring Heath, the journey is planned in advance: 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.
- 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.
- Any non-fire-rated filler is removed 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 files.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We’re an ARBOMaster approved applicator, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.
What does fire rated sealant cost?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Call for a quick quote.
What sealant do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We will tell you what we’re using and why.
Different surfaces, different methods
Flats and HMOs
Converted houses often have gaps around old and new services. We seal the ones on your specification with a tested product and record where they are.
Masonry and concrete
Brick, block and concrete walls and floors are sealed with products tested in masonry. The gap is cleaned of dust first.
Should I try it myself first?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
Why act early in Tendring Heath
An open gap in a fire-resisting wall is a route for smoke and fire. Sealing it properly restores what the wall was there to do, and the work involved is often modest. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Tendring Heath, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Combining jobs into one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.

Commercial buildings in Tendring Heath
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, 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.
Letting a property close to Weeley station? Then any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of St Mary, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.

Aftercare tips
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Include fire stopping when you schedule refits
- Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks
- Get damaged fire seals looked at promptly
- Take photos of fire stopping before ceilings or boxing go back
Avoid covering a sealed gap with anything that isn’t part of the tested detail. Repairs should use a matching fire-rated product. Ask us if you are not sure which product was used.
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.
