Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Well End
We can work through a building room by room or floor by floor, with each location and product recorded. It gives you a list to keep with the building’s fire safety documents. If you have seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers and sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list, we can help, whatever the surface.
Somewhere as small as Well End, commercial jobs tend to be pubs, holiday lets, farm buildings or halls rather than offices. Each still needs sound sealant in its washrooms and kitchens, and fire-rated joints where services pass through walls.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hertfordshire.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Aftercare is simple:
- Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
- Store the list of sealed gaps with your building paperwork
- Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks
- Never patch a fire seal with standard sealant
Any fire seal that is cut or drilled needs resealing to its tested detail. New services through a sealed wall should include fire stopping in the plan.
Small gaps around services are simple to deal with while there are only a few. Leave them and each new job adds another hole.
How we quote for fire rated sealant
Call for a quick quote. What matters most is:
- When we can work, for business premises
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- The size of the job
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.
What to tell us for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Whether it has been sealed before
- A few photos by email, if you can
- Where the property is
Getting a quote is simple: let us know the job and the location, and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help us understand the job.
Signs you need fire rated sealant in Well End
In some buildings the gap was filled with the wrong thing in the first place: ordinary expanding foam, standard silicone or decorators’ caulk in a place that needed a tested fire seal. It may look fine, but it is not a fire-rated seal.
The most common problems we see are:
- Old fire sealant that has split or come away
- Unsealed gaps around fire door frames
- Ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed
- Sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St Michael and All Angels Church, older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- Is VAT in the price?
- Which colour the sealant will be
- How much experience the applicator has
Different surfaces, different methods
Plasterboard walls
Many fire-resisting walls in flats, offices and conversions are plasterboard. We use a product tested in that kind of wall for each gap size.
Door frames
Frame gaps are usually hidden behind the architrave. We seal any open gap to the product’s tested details so the architrave can be refitted.
When it isn’t the sealant
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t solve:
- Fire risk assessments, which need a qualified assessor
- Certifying a building or signing off its fire safety
- Fire doors that need new seals, closers or hardware
If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
What we seal
- Linear gaps
- Plasterboard & masonry

- Pipe & cable gaps
Fire rated sealant around Well End
In England, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires a fire risk assessment for workplaces and for the common parts of blocks of flats, and gaps around services are often picked up there. We apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details.
Schools such as Hertswood Academy are buildings too, and service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment. Letting a property close to Elstree & Borehamwood station? Then any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.

Will you come out to Well End?

Can you tell me which gaps need fire stopping?
No. We follow the requirements from your assessor, designer or building control.
Is it worth trying it myself?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Is there any odour?
Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
Where do you work from?
Our base is in Crawley, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.

It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. To get one, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a short description of the job.
What fire rating will the seal have?
We do not certify fire stopping or quote ratings. Our part is installing the specified product to its tested details and giving you a record of where it went.
