Fire stopping in Hollingrove
Share the site address and what’s failing, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote or arrange a visit.
What sets the cost
Before we quote, we look at:
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- How much existing material needs removing
- Location, for remote and island sites
- Any access equipment needed
The price depends on how many linear metres there are, what has to come out first and the access. Call for a fixed quote when you’re ready.
Before you send an enquiry
However big the job, these details speed things up:
- Your programme or deadline
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- What the building is and how it’s used
A handful of photographs and a postcode is the fastest way to a quote. Upload them with the quote form, or call 01277 525 020 or email us to discuss it first.
How we handle fire stopping in Hollingrove
On a fit-out or refurbishment, we follow the services contractors floor by floor. We work from your penetration schedule or marked-up drawings alongside the manufacturer’s details. Tell us what records you need and we will confirm with the quote. If you have unsealed joints where partitions meet the slab and fire-stopping items raised at inspection or handover, we can put it right, whatever the surface. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Hollingrove tend to want the same three things: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
Smaller places such as Hollingrove still have buildings with fire-resisting walls and floors: schools, halls, care homes and commercial conversions. Any service penetration through those walls should be closed with the specified product, set out as its test evidence shows.
Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

Signs you need fire stopping in Hollingrove
A common fault is a product that was never fire-rated in the first place: expanding foam or a general-purpose sealant pushed into a gap to tidy it. The opening looks sealed but has no fire test evidence behind it and has to be removed.
Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:
- Openings left by services added after handover
- Unsealed joints where partitions meet the slab
- Fire-stopping items raised at inspection or handover
- Openings found when ceilings come down for a refit
In a building such as The Parish Church of St Thomas A Becket, any service penetration through a fire-resisting wall should be sealed to the specified detail.
What your quote should include
- Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it
- Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
- Their pre-qualification and accreditations
- What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
Leave it or put it right?
Inspections and handover checks often pick up fire stopping. Late discoveries can delay handover while openings are reopened and resealed. Older rural buildings around Hollingrove move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.
Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.
What you get with us
- One phone line for London, the South East and Scotland
- Our applicators hold CSCS cards

Compartments and services around Hollingrove
Hollingrove is about 43 miles from central London. Business park offices in the commuter belt are refitted as tenants change, and each fit-out adds services through compartment walls. Approved Document B is the English guidance that covers fire stopping around openings and penetrations. The national BS 476 classes are due to drop out of it from 2 September 2029, leaving the European BS EN 13501-2 route, subject to transitional arrangements. What we install is set by the specification, and it goes in to the tested detail.
At a healthcare site like Ticehurst House Hospital, 6 miles north of Hollingrove, new services through compartment walls are a constant, and each needs the specified seal.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?
Redoing a failed joint usually costs more than getting it right at the outset, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are easy to get wrong without experience.
Your questions answered
Is Hollingrove too small for you to travel to?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We work across Greater London and the South East. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
What happens to BS 476 references for fire stopping in Hollingrove?
Approved Document B loses its BS 476 references from 2 September 2029, and BS EN 13501-2 becomes the route, subject to transitional arrangements. Our part doesn’t change: the specified product, to its tested detail.
Do you take on multi-site work?
Yes. A group of buildings can go on one quote, with one point of contact.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, which helps with supplier vetting.
How do we ask for a quote?
You can use the quote form on this site; alternatively, call 01277 525 020 or use the quote form. Photos, drawings or a joint schedule help us quote quickly.
Who decides which product is used?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. If there isn’t one, it comes down to the joint: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.
For managing agents and facilities managers
FMs need a contractor who is easy to get on site. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Whether you are a managing agent, a property factor or an owner’s representative: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed. We can agree access arrangements and keyholder contacts beforehand.
How a job runs
Our CSCS-carded applicators arrive with the sealants, primers and backing rod the job calls for. Joint faces are cleaned back to sound, dry surfaces, the manufacturer’s primer is applied where it’s called for, and the sealant is tooled off neatly. Jobs in and around smaller places like Hollingrove are usually planned as a single visit, so photographs and measurements up front really help. That way the right products come on the day.
