Common problems we fix in Abbots Worthy
Over time, buildings change layout and use. A house turned into flats or an HMO, or an office split into smaller units, brings new walls, new service routes and new gaps.
Look out for any of the following:
- Gaps filled with a product that is not fire-rated
- Old fire sealant that has split or come away
- Gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs
- Damaged fire sealant left by other trades
If you look after a building such as Kings Worthy Primary School, fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.

Your questions about fire rated sealant in Abbots Worthy
Do you cover smaller places like Abbots Worthy?
Yes, Abbots Worthy is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you cover Abbots Worthy for fire rated sealant?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Abbots Worthy is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No. Fresh sealant does not stick to old sealant, and it traps any mould or water underneath. It all has to come out first.
Are you fully insured?
Yes, we’re fully insured for domestic and commercial work.
How long does fire rated sealant take?
It depends on the size of the job, but most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. We will tell you when we quote.
Can you match the sealant colour?
In most cases you can choose. We’ll explain which colours are available and agree one before we start.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status, and we are fully insured.
Do you carry out fire risk assessments?
No, we don’t assess buildings. Once you have a specification or action list from your assessor or designer, we’ll quote for the sealant work on it.

The job normally takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go.

What affects the quote in Abbots Worthy
For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:
- The product the joint needs
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- Whether the work is at height
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
What to tell us for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- Where the property is
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- How we’d reach the joints
- Whether it’s a home or a business
Call for a quick quote, or email us if that’s easier. Describe what needs sealing and we will talk you through the work and give you a clear quote.
When it is not the sealant
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:
- Openings too large for sealant, which need batts, boards or another system
- Sign-off of the building, which sits with building control or your assessor
- Doors that aren’t fire doors in the first place
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you a straight answer.

Landlord and commercial work in Abbots Worthy
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we will quote.
Aftercare tips
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Photograph sealed gaps before they’re covered up
- Never patch a fire seal with standard sealant
- Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks
- Don’t paint over fire sealant until it has cured
Look at the sealed gaps as part of your routine walk-rounds. Watch for cracking, gaps or seals that have been disturbed and get them seen to.
If a fire risk assessment has flagged a gap, don’t leave it for the next one. Get it sealed and recorded so you can show it was dealt with.
Commercial buildings in Abbots Worthy
Workplaces and the common parts of blocks of flats in England need a fire risk assessment under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which is often where open fire-stopping gaps are first noticed. We apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details.
For buildings such as Church of St Mary, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building. Rented homes near Winchester station change hands often, and fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through.
