Common problems we fix in Walton Manor
A lot of fire stopping is out of sight: in ceiling voids, service risers and behind boxing. Because nobody sees it, gaps go unnoticed until an assessor or surveyor looks.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
- Unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall
- Gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs
- New service routes left unsealed after building work
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as St Aloysius' Catholic Primary School, service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.
What your quote should include
- How long the guarantee is
- What product goes in the joint
- Whether they’re fully insured
- Who turns up on the day
Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Walton Manor
Door frame gaps, linear joints and holes around services all have their own details. Measuring the gap and checking what it’s made of comes first, then the sealant goes in to the depth the product’s details set. We work on service penetrations, linear gaps and flats & HMOs, and common reasons people get in touch are sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list and new service routes left unsealed after building work.
Commercial work around a smaller place like Walton Manor generally means a pub, a shop, a school or small business units rather than office blocks. Each needs the same care with its sealant as any larger building.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee.

Walton Manor: your questions answered
Is Walton Manor within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Do you work for hotels and guest houses in Walton Manor?
Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. Rooms can be done a few at a time, so the building stays open.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
Usually, yes. Sealants come in white, clear, grey and other colours for many products, and we agree the colour with you before work begins.
Will you assess my building’s fire safety?
No. That’s for a fire risk assessor, designer or building control. We apply fire-rated sealant to the requirements they set.
What does fire rated sealant cost?
Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. For a quick quote, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a short description of the job.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Of course. Doing several areas at once is normally more efficient, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
Is it worth trying it myself?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we are part of it.
How we quote for fire rated sealant
Jobs vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- The type of sealant required
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- How many areas need sealing
- Whether the work is at height
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs. Ask us for a quote and we’ll explain what it covers.
Asking for a quote
When you contact us, these details help:
- Roughly how big the job is
- If someone has resealed it before
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- The problem you’ve noticed
Asking for a quote is easy: tell us what needs doing and where, and roughly how big it is. A few pictures by email make the job easier to understand, and we will come back to you with a quote.
Different surfaces, different methods
Flats and HMOs

What happens on the day
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The job generally takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access from start to finish. For a job in Walton Manor, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- We begin by agreeing the list of gaps from your assessor’s or designer’s requirements.
- Each gap is measured and its substrate and service noted.
- Any non-fire-rated filler is removed and the gap cleaned.
- The specified fire-rated sealant goes in over any backing its detail requires.
- We hand over a list of locations and products.
Getting ready for the visit
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on

Advice
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:

- Problems with the door itself rather than the gap around the frame
- Issuing a fire rating or certificate for a building

Should I try it myself first?
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
