Fire rated sealant near Tiptoe

Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Tiptoe

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 door frames, service penetrations and linear gaps, and people most often call us about linear gaps at the head of walls and sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list.

In a village or hamlet like Tiptoe, commercial work is more likely to be a pub, a farm shop, holiday lets or a village hall than an office block. Each still needs sound sealant in its washrooms and kitchens, and fire-rated joints where services pass through walls.

Our work is backed for twelve months.

Why deal with it now?

Doing it once, properly, beats doing it twice. Work that does not follow the tested detail may have to come out again once someone inspects it. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Tiptoe, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference.

Why choose Mr Mastic in Tiptoe

  • Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme
  • We leave the area clean and tidy
  • We never seal over old sealant
  • Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas

Looking after it afterwards

Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Ask which product was used before you paint
  • Flag any open gap you spot round a pipe or cable
  • Include fire stopping when you schedule refits
  • File the fire-stopping record where your assessor can find it

Leave the sealant to cure fully before painting near it. Not every fire-rated sealant takes paint, so ask us which we used.

When you plan work that goes through walls or ceilings, plan the fire stopping too. Doing it at the time avoids leaving gaps behind.

What happens on the day

When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. In a small place like Tiptoe, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. Before starting, we go through the specification or action list with you.
  2. We measure every gap and note what it’s in and what passes through.
  3. Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out and the gap cleaned.
  4. The specified fire-rated sealant goes in over any backing its detail requires.
  5. We hand over a list of locations and products for your files.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the work
  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
  • Mention any parking rules near the property

Landlord and commercial work in Tiptoe

From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: 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. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.

How the job changes by surface

Service penetrations

New gaps tend to show up where services have been added. Old or unsuitable filler comes out before the right sealant goes in.

Masonry and concrete

Holes through concrete and block are rarely neat. We measure the gap at its widest point against the product’s tested range.

Workplaces and buildings in Tiptoe

If you run a hotel, guest house or holiday let in a coastal place like Tiptoe, heavy use in the busy months is hard on washroom and kitchen sealant, and any building work there should leave fire-rated joints made good. Workplaces and the common parts of blocks of flats in England need a fire risk assessment under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which is often where open fire-stopping gaps are first noticed. We work to the specification you are given, installing the product to its tested details.

If you look after a building such as Tiptoe Primary School, service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment. Letting a property close to Sway station? Then new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St Andrew, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.

What affects the cost of fire rated sealant

Call for a quick quote. The main things that affect it are:

  • The old material and how stubborn it is
  • The number of rooms or windows
  • Any working-time requirements on site
  • Access and height

Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.

What we need to know

Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Try to tell us:

  • Any previous sealing or DIY work
  • Photos by email, if that’s easy
  • Where the property is
  • How we’d reach the joints

We don’t publish a price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, we give you a clear price for your job. To get started, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

What sealant work can’t fix

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Large holes that need a different fire-stopping system
  • Sign-off of the building, which sits with building control or your assessor
  • Fire doors that need new seals, closers or hardware

If you’re not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you a straight answer.

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • Door frames
  • Pipe & cable gaps

Tiptoe: your questions answered

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Sway station?

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear price.

Is Tiptoe within the area you cover?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Will there be a smell?

Some sealants have a smell while they cure, which fades as it sets. Ventilation helps.

What’s the difference between intumescent and fire-rated sealant?

Fire-rated is the broad term for sealants tested for fire stopping. Intumescent ones swell in heat, and they’re one option among several. We use whichever the specification and tested details call for.

Do you guarantee your work?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with our work in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

How much does fire rated sealant cost in Tiptoe?

There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. We agree the price before any work begins.

Should I try DIY first?

Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.

Do you certify the fire stopping?

We don’t give ratings or certificates for our work. Your specification sets the requirement, and we fit a product whose tested details meet it, recording the locations and products.
