About our fire rated sealant in Winton
Intumescent sealant looks much like any other sealant until it gets hot; in a fire it expands into the joint. 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. If you have door frames with gaps between frame and wall and unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall, we can put it right, on pipe & cable gaps, door frames and linear gaps alike.
If you have holiday lets, a converted barn used for business or a community building near Winton, washroom and kitchen sealant and any fire-rated joints need the same attention as anywhere.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Why deal with it now?
Doing it once, properly, beats doing it twice. If the details weren’t followed, the seal may need redoing when the building is next checked. Older cottages and farmhouses around Winton can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part, and we will explain the quote if you ask.
Why us?
- Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet
- We leave the area clean and tidy
- Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
- An ARBOMaster approved applicator

Workplaces and buildings in Winton
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.
For landlords with property near Berwick (Sussex) station, fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through. Community buildings like Church of St. Andrew are part of the picture too: service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building. If you look after a building such as Alfriston School, fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.

How the job changes by surface
Service penetrations
New gaps tend to show up where services have been added. Old or unsuitable filler comes out before the right sealant goes in with backing where the detail needs it.
Linear gaps
A linear joint may need to allow for movement as well as fire. The product and depth are chosen to suit both.
When something else is needed
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:
- Doors that are not fire doors in the first place
- Walls or floors that weren’t built to resist fire
- Openings too large for sealant, which need batts, boards or another system
If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.
What we seal
- Service penetrations
- Linear gaps

Is Winton in your area for fire rated sealant?

How do I get a quote for fire rated sealant in Winton?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. You will get a clear quote before work begins.
Is intumescent sealant the same as fire-rated sealant?
Fire-rated sealant covers any sealant tested for use in fire stopping. Intumescent types expand when heated, and they’re one option among several. The specification and the tested detail decide which is used.
Do you do fire sealant around door frames?
Yes, where the gap suits a sealant detail. Our work is the gap around the frame and we will tell you if we spot problems with the door.
Is it messy?
No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
How to look after the new joints
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Look in service cupboards and ceiling voids from time to time
- Include fire stopping when you schedule refits
- Keep the record of products and locations with your fire safety documents
- Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
Do not drill through or remove a fire seal without putting it back properly. If you need new services through a sealed wall, plan the fire stopping as part of the job.
An open gap isn’t only a fire issue: noise, draughts and even pests can come through too. Dealing with them early helps with all of these.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Winton
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.
We also work for property managers and facilities teams in Winton and across East Sussex. Several sites can go on one quote, and we’re fully insured for the work.
How it works
There’s no need to move everything out, just the space around the work. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access in most cases. Somewhere as small as Winton, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- 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.
- Any non-fire-rated filler is removed.
- We fit backing where needed and apply the fire-rated sealant to depth.
- We hand over a list of locations and products.
Getting ready for the visit
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Mention any tricky access
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
