How we quote for fire rated sealant
Jobs vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Whether the work is at height
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference.
What we need to know
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- Whether it has been sealed before
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- How we’d reach the joints
Every job is quoted individually, so start by telling us what you need. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details, and photos are welcome.
About our fire rated sealant in Terrick
Door frame gaps, linear joints and holes around services all have their own details. We check the size and the substrate before choosing the product, then the sealant goes in to the depth the product’s details set. Typical jobs include sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list and open gaps behind door architraves, on service penetrations, flats & HMOs and linear gaps.
For holiday lets, converted business premises or a community building near Terrick, the washrooms, kitchens and any fire-rated joints need the same care as a big site.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Should I try it myself first?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Fire rated sealant in Terrick: local notes
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.
Managing a site like John Colet School? Then fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in. For buildings such as Church of St Peter and St Paul, older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking. For landlords with property near Little Kimble station, fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through.

Common questions in Terrick
Do you cover Terrick for fire rated sealant?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Terrick is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we will send you a clear quote.
Will you come out to Terrick?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
Generally, yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available, and we agree the colour with you before any work starts.
Can I do it myself?
Sometimes. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
Is standard sealant good enough for a fire gap?
No. Standard sealants aren’t made or tested to stop fire. We cut it out and reseal with a fire-rated product.
What do you need from me for a quote?

What does fire rated sealant cost?
Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. To get one, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a short description of the job.

What we cannot put right
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:
- Problems with the door itself rather than the gap around the frame
- Openings too large for sealant, which need batts, boards or another system
- Walls or floors that weren’t built to resist fire
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.

Looking after it afterwards
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Check whether a sealant can be painted before decorating over it
- Keep the record of products and locations with your fire safety documents
- Ask every contractor to reseal any fire stopping they disturb
- Get damaged fire seals looked at promptly
Do not add foam, filler or ordinary sealant over a fire seal. Repairs should use a matching fire-rated product. We can tell you which product we used.
Any job that breaks through a wall or ceiling should include resealing. Doing it at the time avoids leaving gaps behind.
How it works
Every visit runs the same way: 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. Somewhere as small as Terrick, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First we work through your list or survey, measuring each gap and checking what it’s formed in.
- Anything that is not fit for the job comes out, and the gap is cleaned.
- Where the tested detail needs backing or fill, we fit it.
- The sealant goes in to the depth its detail sets, then it’s tooled off.
- Locations and products are noted so you have them on file.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

How the job changes by surface

A door can only do its job if the gap behind its frame is sealed too. We fill it with a fire-rated product suited to the materials either side.
Flats and HMOs
In occupied buildings, we plan the order of work with you. Access to flats and common areas is agreed in advance.
