About our fire rated sealant in Young's End
Deciding which gaps need fire stopping is not our role; your assessor, designer or building control sets that out. What we do is apply the right product to that specification, properly and neatly. If you have joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey and gaps left after a refit or conversion, we can put it right.
For holiday lets, converted business premises or a community building near Young's End, the washrooms, kitchens and any fire-rated joints need the same care as a big site.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Fire rated sealant in Young's End: 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, and gaps around services are often picked up there. We work to the specification you’re given, installing the product to its tested details.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as White Court School, gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices. Rented homes near Cressing station change hands often, and new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant.

Your questions about fire rated sealant in Young's End
Will you come out to Young's End?
Yes. Young's End is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can you do fire rated sealant in Young's End?
Yes, Young's End is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Which products do you use?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we’ll explain our choice.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status.
How do I get a quote for fire rated sealant in Young's End?
We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. We agree the price before any work begins.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before resealing.
Can tenants book the work?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Does someone need to be in?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we have agreed the job, you do not need to watch us work.
How the job changes by surface
Linear gaps
Gaps along the top of partitions are easy to miss above a ceiling. We seal them along their full length.
Plasterboard walls
Service holes in plasterboard are often rough and oversized. Where a hole is bigger than the sealant’s tested range, it needs another approach and we will flag it.
Should I try it myself first?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the 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.
How the visit works
All our tools and materials come with us in the van. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. It normally takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. For a village or hamlet like Young's End, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- Access to each area is agreed so the work can run in order.
- 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.
- We record what was done and flag anything that needs a different system.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Mention any tricky access
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Advice
Why deal with it now?
An unsealed gap lets smoke and fire get round a wall that was built to hold them back. Sealing it properly restores what the wall was there to do, and the work involved is often modest. In a small place like Young's End, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before work begins, so you know where you stand.

What affects the quote in Young's End
The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- The number of rooms or windows
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- The product the joint needs
- How much there is to do
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
Asking for a quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
