Fire stopping for Brighton Hill sites

Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.

Fire stopping for commercial buildings in Brighton Hill

Fire-rated sealant suits many small service penetrations: copper and steel pipes, cables and some small ducts where the tested detail allows. Other openings need collars, wraps, batts, pillows or boards. If the detail calls for something other than sealant, we say so rather than force sealant into it. If you have damaged fire seals in risers and voids and expanding foam used as fire stopping, we can help, whatever the surface. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in Brighton Hill, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.

Converted and extended buildings around places like Brighton Hill can mix old and new construction, so it’s worth confirming the wall or floor type before choosing the seal. The right product depends on the wall or floor and the services passing through, and we will tell you if the detail calls for something other than sealant.

Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months, wherever the site is. If our installation lets you down in that time, we return and fix it.

Commercial clients in Brighton Hill

Agents, factors and owners’ representatives all follow the same route: send the details, accept a fixed quote, and we carry out and guarantee the work. We can agree access arrangements and keyholder contacts beforehand.

If you look after buildings for someone else, you need clear quotes and clear reporting. We quote a fixed sum, confirm the scope and walk the finished work with you or your representative.

After the work

To get the most from the new sealant:

  • Check with the data sheet before painting over fire sealant
  • Brief every trade that openings they make must be sealed
  • File the specified details where the next contractor can find them
  • Keep general-purpose fillers away from compartment walls

Never top up a fire seal with foam, ordinary silicone or filler. Repairs need the same product and detail as the original unless the designer specifies otherwise.

Keep a register of where seals are and what they are made of. It tells the next contractor exactly what to reinstate, which saves guesswork.

Compartments and services around Brighton Hill

There are plenty of hotels within about 2 miles of Brighton Hill. In hotels, bedroom and corridor walls are usually fire-resisting, so services added in a refit need sealing with the specified product. Brighton Hill has three care or nursing homes no more than 2 miles away. Care homes rely on fire-resisting walls and floors, and maintenance work that breaks through them leaves openings to seal.

Halls and meeting rooms at places like The Church Of Christ The King sometimes gain new services, and any compartment wall crossed needs the specified seal. At a healthcare site like Basingstoke and North Hampshire Hospital, which lies north of Brighton Hill, new services through compartment walls are a constant, and each needs the specified seal. For a hotel such as Audleys Wood Hotel, 1.3 miles east of Brighton Hill, penetration seals are worth checking after any refit or services upgrade.

Questions we’re asked in Brighton Hill

Will you work in a care home in Brighton Hill without moving residents out?

Yes, with the manager deciding the order and timing of rooms. Noise and disruption are kept to a minimum.

How does the move away from BS 476 affect penetration seals in Brighton Hill?

References to BS 476 classes are being removed from Approved Document B from 2 September 2029, after which BS EN 13501-2 classification is the route, subject to transitional arrangements. The designer or fire engineer sets the specification, and we install the product to the manufacturer’s tested detail.

Will you quote for a small job?

Whatever the size, the process is the same: details, then a fixed price, then sealing, then a 12-month guarantee.

Can one quote cover more than one building?

Yes. Multi-site work and planned programmes are a core part of the service, planned site by site to suit how each building is used.

Can you quote from photos?

Many jobs can be quoted from photographs, drawings or a joint schedule. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a visit before quoting.

Can you follow the specification on our project?

Yes. We follow the specification, along with the manufacturer’s installation guidance, and any queries are raised before we start.

Do you have public liability insurance?

Yes. Our insurance certificate can be sent alongside the quote.

How the job changes by surface

Linear joints

Head-of-wall gaps, slab edges and wall junctions are linear joints. Their tested detail, under BS EN 1366-4, sets the width, depth, backing and movement allowed.

Small ducts

Small ductwork can sometimes be sealed with sealant where the tested detail includes it. Larger or fire-rated ductwork typically needs a different solution set by the designer and we flag that rather than guess.

Cost factors for service penetrations

Each job is priced on its own details. The main factors are:

  • The product specified
  • The total length or number of joints
  • Site requirements such as inductions and permits
  • Phasing around occupants

Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits.

What we need to price the job

To price the job accurately, we need a clear picture of the site. Send us:

  • A wide shot and a close-up of the area
  • Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
  • Asbestos survey details if the building is older
  • When you need the work done

For a fixed quote, call 01277 525 020 or email us, telling us the site location and the nature of the job. You can also send details through our quote form.

From enquiry to sign-off

Occupied buildings need a little choreography. We sign and contain the area we’re in, keep walkways clear and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. For a job in Brighton Hill, the main thing is a clear picture of the work. A fixed quote follows.

  1. We ask for the product and detail your designer has specified.
  2. Openings are measured and grouped by detail.
  3. Improvised fillers and failed sealant are removed.
  4. Mineral wool or other backing is fitted where required.
  5. We gun the sealant in to the specified depth around each service and tool it.
  6. We walk the completed areas with you and confirm the records agreed at quote stage.

Preparing the site

  • Tell us which areas need to stay in use
  • Move anything stored against the joints
  • Share your working hours and any access restrictions

Leave it or put it right?

Sealing behind the M&E trades area by area beats a sweep at the end. Openings are visible, access is open and nothing has to be taken down, and the right detail can be checked at the time. A failed joint lets water into a building whatever its size. Early resealing avoids the damage that follows a leak.

The price depends on how many linear metres there are, how much old material needs removing and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote once you have the details.
