Fire rated sealant in Up Nately
Intumescent sealant looks much like any other sealant until it gets hot; then it swells to help close the gap. Which product suits a gap depends on its width, the materials either side and what runs through it, so we work to the manufacturer’s details. We work on pipe & cable gaps, door frames and flats & HMOs, and common reasons people get in touch are unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall and damaged fire sealant left by other trades.
If you have holiday lets, a converted barn used for business or a community building near Up Nately, the washrooms, kitchens and any fire-rated joints need the same care as a big site.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

What affects the quote in Up Nately
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- How many areas need sealing
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The number and length of the joints
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.
Helping us quote
You do not need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:
- How we’d reach the joints
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Whether it’s a home or a business
Asking for a quote is easy: let us know the job and the location, and roughly how big it is. A few photos by email make the job easier to understand, and we will take it from there.

Landlord and commercial work in Up Nately
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can be quoted together.
We also work for property managers and facilities teams. Several sites can go on one quote, and we are fully insured.
DIY versus a professional finish
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Fire rated sealant in Up Nately: local notes
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.
If you look after a building such as Robert May's School, gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices. If you let a flat or house near Hook station, any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.

The process
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and explain the cure time. The work normally takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building, depending on the size of the job. In a small place like Up Nately, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- Access to each area is agreed so the work can run in order.
- Old, damaged or unsuitable sealant is removed.
- Gaps are cleaned of dust and loose material.
- We apply and tool the sealant to the product’s tested detail.
- We record what was done and flag anything that needs a different system.
Preparing for the visit
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Related advice
Common problems we fix in Up Nately
Lots of unsealed gaps appear long after the building was completed. Electricians, plumbers and data installers drill through walls and ceilings and the hole they leave doesn’t always get resealed.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Fire seals that have cracked with movement
- Gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs
- Gaps filled with a product that isn’t fire-rated
- Joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey
Community buildings like Church of St. Stephen are part of the picture too: service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.

- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- How long the guarantee is
When it is not the sealant
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t solve:
- Issuing a fire rating or certificate for a building
- Doors that are not fire doors in the first place
- Large holes that need a different fire-stopping system
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer.

What the job involves on each surface
Flats and HMOs
In flats and HMOs, the walls and floors between homes and common areas need sealing where services pass through. We seal the gaps your assessor has identified, flat by flat if needed.
Linear gaps
Head-of-wall gaps are often hidden above suspended ceilings. We work along the whole run.
