How the job changes by surface
Door frames
We deal with the gap around the frame, not the door. The door leaf, its seals and closer need a door specialist.
Plasterboard walls
Many fire-resisting walls in flats, offices and conversions are plasterboard. We use a product tested in that kind of wall.
About our fire rated sealant in Thames Ditton
Fire stopping only performs as intended if it’s done to the detail: correct depth, correct backing and a product suited to the surfaces. That detail is what we take care over, one gap at a time. Common call-outs are for standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap and gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment, across plasterboard & masonry, door frames and flats & HMOs.
In a smaller place like Thames Ditton, commercial jobs tend to be smaller buildings: a pub, a surgery, a school, a shop or a few business units. The work is the same as in a big building, just on a smaller scale.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee.

Fire rated sealant in Thames Ditton: local notes
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. There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Thames Ditton. Hotel work can be planned room by room, with out-of-hours working where needed.
Managing a site like Thames Ditton Junior School? Then service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment. For buildings such as Church of St. Nicholas, older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking. Rented homes near Thames Ditton station change hands often, and any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.

Keeping the joints in good condition
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Plan fire stopping into any work that goes through walls or floors
- Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks
- Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
- Never patch a fire seal with standard sealant
Keep the record we give you with the building’s fire safety documents. It saves time at the next inspection or assessment.
Open gaps don’t only matter in a fire: noise, draughts and even pests can come through too. Dealing with them early helps with all of these.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

What else we do in Thames Ditton
Leave it or put it right?
Fire-rated sealants need more care than everyday sealant. Depth, backing and surface preparation all affect how a seal performs, and we work to the product details every time. Around Thames Ditton, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.

How we quote for fire rated sealant
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- How many areas need sealing
- Access and height
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Working hours on commercial sites
Doing several joints on one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.
Asking for a quote
When you contact us, these details help:
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- If someone has resealed it before
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Where the job is, and your postcode
There’s no standard price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, we give you a clear price for your job. To arrange one, call 0345 464 0079 or email us.
The process
You don’t need to clear the whole room or building, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the work takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building in most cases. In a smaller place like Thames Ditton, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.
- Before starting, we go through the specification or action list with you.
- Each gap is measured and its substrate and service noted.
- Any non-fire-rated filler is removed and the gap cleaned.
- We fit backing where needed and apply the fire-rated sealant to depth.
- Every location is recorded with the product used for your files.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Clear the area around the work
- Tell us if parking is tricky

Advice
Common questions in Thames Ditton
Do you work for landlords with property near Thames Ditton station?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before we start.
Do you work in hotels near Thames Ditton?
Yes, hospitality work, including hotels, is part of what we do. Work can be planned room by room, and out-of-hours working can be arranged.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
Generally, yes. Sealants come in white, clear, grey and other colours, and we will agree it with you first.
Do you cover Thames Ditton?
Yes. From our base in Crawley, we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. We remove it all first.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all.
Can I use normal mastic around a pipe through a fire wall?
No. Where a fire-rated seal is needed, it has to be a product tested for that use, installed to its details.
Will we have a record of what was sealed?
Yes. We note each location and the product that went in.
DIY versus a professional finish
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
