Your questions answered

Can you seal penetrations in a hotel in Trumps Green after a refit?

Yes, to the specification and the product’s tested detail. Each seal follows the tested detail, and rooms are done in turn.

What does the BS 476 change mean for fire-rated sealant in Trumps Green?

Approved Document B loses its BS 476 references from 2 September 2029, and BS EN 13501-2 becomes the route, subject to transitional arrangements. Whichever applies, we install the specified product to its tested detail; the specification is for the designer to set.

Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?

Yes. Mastic Doctor is CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.

How many days will you need on site?

We plan the time on site around your programme and access. You will have an expected duration with the quote.

Is colour matching possible?

That depends on the product specified. Some ranges offer many colours, others very few, so we’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product with the quote.

Do you cover Trumps Green?

Yes. We cover Trumps Green, and the simplest way to start is to ring 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.

Can you handle several sites?

Yes. Multi-site work and planned programmes are a core part of the service, with each site phased to suit its occupants.

Fire stopping in Trumps Green

Where pipes, cables and other services cross a compartment wall or floor, the opening around them has to be closed so fire and smoke can’t move between compartments. Our job is fitting fire-rated and intumescent sealant at those service penetrations, and along linear gaps, where it is the specified product. Each seal follows the manufacturer’s tested detail rather than guesswork. We work on pipe penetrations, small duct penetrations where the tested detail allows and service gaps in risers, and what we are called in for most is builders’ foam or ordinary silicone in compartment walls and snag lists that include open service penetrations. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Trumps Green, preparation and product choice get the time they need.

Rural conversions around Trumps Green can put new fire-resisting partitions inside older structures. A penetration seal only performs as tested if product, substrate, service, gap and depth all match the detail.

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.

Do you need fire stopping in Trumps Green?

Fire stopping can get squeezed at the end of a programme, or done by whoever is on site. That is when untested combinations creep in.

Site and facilities staff are often the first to spot these:

  • Openings found when ceilings come down for a refit
  • Fire seals cut back for extra cables and never reinstated
  • Fire stopping installed outside its tested range
  • Open linear gaps along the top of fire-resisting walls

Office fit-outs on sites such as Hersham Farm Business Park, 1 mile south-east of Trumps Green, add cabling and pipework through fire-resisting walls, and fire-rated sealant goes in where the specification calls for it.

Before you book anyone

  • Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
  • Will CSCS-carded applicators be on site?
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid

How to choose a sealant contractor

What happens if it’s left?

A seal that doesn’t match its tested detail gives false comfort. Correcting it means cutting it out and starting again with the specified product, so it makes sense to get it right first time. Converted and older buildings near places like Trumps Green tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.

Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.

Why appoint us

  • Joints cleaned back to sound surfaces
  • Fully insured
  • One number for every site we cover
  • CHAS accredited contractor

Take a look at our cost guide or how we’re accredited.

When it isn’t the sealant

We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:

  • Openings that need collars, wraps, batts or boards rather than sealant
  • Approving the work on behalf of building control
  • Walls or floors that aren’t fire-resisting to begin with

Not sure which it is? You can call the office on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will tell you honestly.

What we seal

  • Joints between fire-resisting walls and floors
  • Cable penetrations
  • Pipe penetrations
  • Service gaps in risers
  • Linear gaps at wall heads
  • Small duct penetrations where the tested detail allows

Looking after the joints

Once the work is signed off, these steps help:

  • Flag new cables with no seal around them
  • Check with the data sheet before painting over fire sealant
  • File the specified details where the next contractor can find them
  • Put resealing into every M&E and fit-out package

Give the sealant its full cure time before ceilings, boxing or decoration go over it. Not every fire-rated product can be painted, and the data sheet says which.

The simplest way to keep compartment walls intact is to plan fire stopping into every job that crosses them. Then the seal goes in while the area is open.

How the quote is worked out

These are the things that shape the price:

  • Access and working height
  • Joint width, depth and condition
  • Travel to remote or island sites
  • Whether old sealant has to be cut out first

We don’t publish prices, since every building and every scope is different. Call for a quote and we will price your job on its own details.

Before you send an enquiry

Diagnosis starts before we arrive. Tell us:

  • Specification clauses that apply
  • What the building is and how it’s used
  • Asbestos survey details if the building is older
  • Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available

Need a figure for a tender or a budget? We will quote against your scope and drawings that you can work with. If you have questions first, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form.

Fire stopping in Trumps Green: the local picture

There are a number of hotels within about 2 miles of Trumps Green. In hotels, bedroom and corridor walls are typically fire-resisting, so services added in a refit need sealing with the specified product. Approved Document B is the English guidance that covers fire stopping around openings and penetrations. References to the older BS 476 classes are being removed from it from 2 September 2029, after which the European classification, BS EN 13501-2, is the route, subject to transitional arrangements. Either way, we install the specified product to its tested detail.

For an estates team at a campus like Royal Holloway University, which lies north of Trumps Green, summer M&E works are typically followed by a round of penetration sealing. On a hospital site such as St Peter's Hospital, which lies south-east of Trumps Green, fire-rated sealant goes in where the specification calls for it, with the work planned around the estates team’s permits.

On site: what to expect

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. For a building around Trumps Green, tell us how to find it and who will meet us. Add it to your enquiry and we will build it into the plan.

  1. The specification and schedule come first, so we know which details apply.
  2. Access, permits and the order of areas are agreed with the site team.
  3. We compare every service penetration with its tested detail before sealing.
  4. Unsuitable material is removed and the opening cleaned first.
  5. The specified backing and sealant go in to depth and are finished neatly.
  6. Anything outside the detail is reported to you rather than sealed.

What we need from you

  • Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
  • Tell staff and tenants when we’ll be in
  • Have the specification and drawings to hand
