Need fire stopping in Tyler's Green?
Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.
On site: what to expect
Our CSCS-carded applicators arrive with the sealants, primers and backing rod the job calls for. Any old material is cut back to clean, sound faces, the manufacturer’s primer is applied where it’s called for, and each bead is tooled to a neat concave finish. Jobs in and around smaller places like Tyler's Green are normally planned as a single visit, so we ask for photographs and rough sizes first. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- The specification and schedule come first, so we know which details apply.
- Access, permits and the order of areas are agreed with the site team.
- We compare every service penetration with its tested detail before sealing.
- Foam, ordinary sealant and debris come out so the seal starts clean.
- The specified backing and sealant go in to depth and are finished neatly.
- Anything outside the detail is reported to you rather than sealed.
What we need from you
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
- Let us know about inductions and permits
- Have the specification and drawings to hand

Fire stopping in Tyler's Green
Penetration seals are fire tested to BS EN 1366-3 and linear joint seals to BS EN 1366-4, with results classified under BS EN 13501-2. A rating such as EI 60 only holds when the product is installed as it was tested. So our job is to reproduce that arrangement faithfully. We work on service gaps in risers, linear gaps at wall heads and small duct penetrations where the tested detail allows, and the failures we are asked to look at most are open linear gaps along the top of fire-resisting walls and penetration schedules that need working through. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in Tyler's Green, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
Smaller places such as Tyler's Green 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.
Guaranteed is the last step of every job. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months, and the quote explains what it covers.

Questions we’re asked in Tyler's Green
What happens to BS 476 references for fire stopping in Tyler's Green?
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 take on work at estates like Brewerstreet Dairy Business Park, close to Tyler's Green?
Yes, sites like Brewerstreet Dairy Business Park are within our area, along with the rest of Tyler's Green. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
Will you come and look before quoting?
It depends on the job. Straightforward work can often be priced from photographs and measurements, while larger or less clear jobs get a site visit first.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months.
How many days will you need on site?
The duration is planned around your programme and the access we are given. We’ll give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.
Can weather delay the job?
It can, for external work. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.
How do you choose the sealant?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. Without one, the joint decides: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.
Why it’s worth doing now in Tyler's Green
An improvised seal can look finished while offering no tested performance. Correcting it means cutting it out and starting again with the specified product, so it makes sense to get it right first time. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Tyler's Green, rather than one at a time. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.
Pricing service penetrations depends on quantities, condition and access, plus any specification you’re working to. Call for a quote.

What we’re called out for in Tyler's Green
When a seal departs from its tested detail, the evidence no longer covers it. An oversized gap, too shallow a bead, missing backing or two makers’ products combined are what we find most often.
Things that typically lead to an enquiry:
- Improvised or mixed-product fire seals
- Openings left by services added after handover
- Fire seals cut back for extra cables and never reinstated
- Builders’ foam or ordinary silicone in compartment walls
Hotels like Antique Shop The Godstone Hotel, 0.6 miles to the south of Tyler's Green, are refurbished in phases, and each phase can open up compartment walls.
What your quote should include
- The named product and why it was chosen
- Their pre-qualification and accreditations
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
- How they handle RAMS and site documents

For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor on new-build and refurbishment projects. Programme, specification and site rules come first.
What the job involves on each surface
Linear joints
Head-of-wall joints often have to absorb slab deflection. The specified product and backing for that movement are what goes in, along the full length of the run.
Masonry and concrete
Openings through concrete vary from tidy cores to rough break-outs. The gap is measured at the widest point against the detail’s limits, and any that don’t are flagged.
When it isn’t the sealant
Part of a good diagnosis is knowing where sealant stops. You will hear from us if the cause turns out to be one of these:
- Plastic pipes whose detail calls for a collar or wrap
- Signing off or certifying a building’s fire stopping
- Deciding what a wall or floor needs, which belongs to the designer
If you’re not sure, just phone 01277 525 020 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer.
