About our fire rated sealant in Teynham
Bigger jobs can be worked through in stages, flat by flat or floor by floor, noting the locations and products as we go. That record is useful for your files and for whoever looks at the building next. If you have ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed and linear gaps at the head of walls, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Commercial work around a smaller place like Teynham normally means a pub, a shop, a school or small business units rather than office blocks. Each needs the same care with its sealant as any larger building.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, in Teynham and everywhere else we cover.

DIY versus a professional finish
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

What else we do in Teynham
Why it’s worth doing now in Teynham
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 an older home around Teynham, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
Why us?
- Neat joints and a tidy finish
- An ARBOMaster approved applicator

What we’re called out for in Teynham
If the sealant is too shallow, has the wrong backing or sits on a dusty surface, it is not installed as tested. Rushed fire stopping is common.
Look out for these signs:
- Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
- Open holes round services passing through fire walls
- Old fire sealant that has split or come away
- Open gaps behind door architraves
For buildings such as Church of St Mary, older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking.

How the job changes by surface
Plasterboard walls
Service holes in plasterboard are often rough and oversized. Where a hole is bigger than the sealant’s tested range, it needs another approach, and we will tell you.
Service penetrations
Pipes, cables and ducts passing through fire-resisting walls and floors each leave a gap. The sealant is chosen for what passes through and how wide the gap is.
