The process
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we’ll take it from there. The work itself takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building, including the tidy-up. In a smaller place like Worth, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.
- We plan the order of work and access, floor by floor or flat by flat.
- Old, damaged or unsuitable sealant is removed.
- Dust and loose debris are cleaned from each gap.
- The fire-rated or intumescent sealant is applied and tooled to the tested detail.
- Locations and products are written up and any gaps unsuitable for sealant are flagged.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

Fire rated sealant in Worth
In flats, HMOs, offices and schools, fire stopping is often disturbed by later work. A new cable run or a replaced pipe can leave an open hole behind. Those are the gaps we close, using a tested fire-rated product. If you have fire stopping disturbed by later work and door frames with gaps between frame and wall, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
If you run a pub, café, guest house or shop in or near Worth, the washrooms and kitchen need the same attention as a big site, and fire-rated sealant around service openings should be restored after new pipes or cables go through.
Big or small, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee.

Worth questions
Is Worth within the area you cover?
Yes. Worth is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
I let a flat near Three Bridges station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as householders. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
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.
Will you assess my building’s fire safety?
No. We work from the specification you give us, and apply each product to its tested details.
Are you fully insured?
Yes, we’re fully insured.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, always, and completely. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.
What should I tell you?
Only a few details: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. After that, simply ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Doing several areas at once is usually more efficient, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
For landlords and businesses
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Aftercare tips
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Photograph sealed gaps before they’re covered up
- Include hidden areas like risers in routine checks
- File the fire-stopping record where your assessor can find it
- Don’t paint over fire sealant until it has cured
Avoid covering a sealed gap with anything that is not part of the tested detail. If it needs repair, use the same type of product. We can tell you which product we used.
Open gaps do not only matter in a fire: they also let noise, draughts and sometimes pests through. Sealing them early helps on every front.
Common problems we fix in Worth
Over time, buildings change layout and use. A house turned into flats or an HMO, or an office split into smaller units, brings new walls, new service routes and new gaps.
People normally contact us after spotting something like this:
- Fire stopping disturbed by later work
- Open gaps behind door architraves
- Gaps left after a refit or conversion
- Sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list
For buildings such as St Nicholas' Church, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.
Questions to ask before you book
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- How hidden problems are handled
- What insurance they hold
DIY versus a professional finish
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
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.
Why it’s worth doing now in Worth
Fire-rated sealants need more care than everyday sealant. How it’s installed changes how it performs, so we follow the maker’s details on every gap. Around Worth, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed. Ask us for a quote and we will go through it with you.
Why Worth customers choose us
- Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild
- Homes, businesses and hotels
- Rated 4.9 stars on Google
- Old sealant always removed completely

Fire rated sealant in Worth: local notes
Worth is part of Crawley, one of the post-war new towns. Like the other new towns, Crawley was planned with its own areas for industry and business, so workplaces sit close to the homes. Each has washrooms, kitchens and fire-rated joints to keep in order. 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 site and facilities teams at buildings such as Maidenbower Junior School, fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in. If you let a flat or house near Three Bridges station, new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant.
