Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Toddington
In flats, HMOs, offices and schools, fire stopping is often disturbed by later work. A new cable run or a replaced pipe can leave an open hole behind. We seal them with a product tested for that kind of gap. We work on pipe & cable gaps, door frames and service penetrations, and people most often call us about seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers and gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs.
For a pub, café, guest house or shop in or near Toddington, its washrooms and kitchen need the same sealant care as any big building, and fire-rated sealant around service openings should be restored after new pipes or cables go through.
Big or small, you get the same 12-month guarantee in Toddington and across West Sussex.

What the job involves on each surface
Plasterboard walls
Plasterboard partitions are common in flats, offices and conversions. We use a product tested in that kind of wall.
Linear gaps
A linear joint may need to allow for movement as well as fire. The product and depth are chosen to suit both.
Signs you need fire rated sealant in Toddington
Door frames are a common weak spot. The gap between the frame and the wall is hidden behind the architrave, so it’s easy to leave unsealed when doors are changed.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment
- Gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs
- Ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed
- Cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as All Saints, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
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.

Honest limits
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’ll tell you before work begins. It won’t solve:
- Problems with the door itself rather than the gap around the frame
- Fire risk assessments, which need a qualified assessor
- Issuing a fire rating or certificate for a building
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think before you book.

Fire rated sealant around Toddington
If you run a hotel, guest house or holiday let in a coastal place like Toddington, busy months put washrooms and kitchens under pressure, so it’s worth checking the sealant before the busiest weeks. 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 apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details.
Schools such as Lyminster Primary School are buildings too, and fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in. For landlords with property near Littlehampton station, fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through.

The process
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. A visit to Toddington is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.
- 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.
- Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out and the gap 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
