Tonbridge questions
What guarantee comes with fire rated sealant in Tonbridge?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We’re also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
I let a flat near Tonbridge station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Will there be a smell?
That depends on the sealant. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.
Do you cover Tonbridge?
Yes. We cover Tonbridge and the rest of Kent. To book, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Will it make a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.
Where are you based?
Our base is in Crawley, West Sussex, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
How long will you be here?
A typical job takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building, including preparation and clearing up. We will confirm how long when we quote.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, every time. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Fire rated sealant in Tonbridge
A fire seal relies on being installed the way it was tested: the right depth, the right backing and the right product for the substrate. That’s the part we focus on, gap by gap. If you have damaged fire sealant left by other trades and linear gaps at the head of walls, we can put it right, on flats & HMOs, pipe & cable gaps and plasterboard & masonry alike.
If you look after a school, care home, pub or office in Tonbridge, washroom sealant, kitchen joints and fire-rated sealant around service openings all need upkeep. Out-of-hours working is possible to arrange.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, in Tonbridge and everywhere else we cover.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
What affects the quote in Tonbridge
Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- The number and length of the joints
- Any working-time requirements on site
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.
What to tell us for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. Just tell us:
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- If someone has resealed it before
- Roughly how big the job is
There’s no standard price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, we send you a clear quote for your job. To get started, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Different surfaces, different methods
Service penetrations
Different services need different details: metal pipes, cables and plastic pipes are not treated the same. Each one is sealed to the product’s tested detail, and tell you if sealant alone isn’t the right fix.
Door frames
A door can only do its job if the gap behind its frame is sealed too. We seal that gap with a fire-rated sealant suited to the frame and wall.
Fire rated sealant around Tonbridge
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 work to the specification you are given, installing the product to its tested details.
Letting a property close to Tonbridge station? Then new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant. Managing a site like New Beacon School? Then gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices. 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.

Around Tonbridge

Nearby you will also find The Milne Museum (less than half a mile west) and Tonbridge Castle (under half a mile south-west). Not far away are Tudeley Woods RSPB reserve and Barden Lake.
Why deal with it now?
Squirting in whichever sealant is nearest doesn’t make a fire seal. Fire-rated products are tested in set gap sizes, depths and substrates, which is why we match the product and the method to each gap. In Tonbridge, as anywhere, most leaks start as a small gap in a joint, and they’re far easier to fix early.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs. Ask us for a quote and we will explain what it covers.

How to look after the new joints
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Photograph sealed gaps before they’re covered up
- Do not paint over fire sealant until it has cured
- Store the list of sealed gaps with your building paperwork
- Include hidden areas like risers in routine checks
Tell other trades that the gaps have been sealed, and make sure anything they disturb is resealed with a suitable product. Later work is a common cause of damaged fire stopping.
Any job that breaks through a wall or ceiling should include resealing. Doing it at the time avoids leaving gaps behind.

How the visit works
On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. The work generally takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. Parking in a town like Tonbridge is usually straightforward, but tell us if there’s a driveway or any restrictions, and let us know if the work is upstairs, in a flat or up high outside.
- We begin by agreeing the list of gaps from your assessor’s or designer’s requirements.
- 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 faces 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
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
