Fire rated sealant in the Isle of Wight: how it works

Fire stopping only performs as intended if it’s done to the detail: correct depth, correct backing and a product suited to the surfaces. That detail is what we take care over. Common call-outs are for cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant and fire stopping disturbed by later work, on flats & HMOs, service penetrations and door frames.

You don’t need to clear the whole room or building before we come, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the work takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building for a typical job.

Before starting, we go through the specification or action list with you.
We measure every gap and note what it’s in and what passes through.
Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out.
We fit backing where needed and apply the fire-rated sealant to depth.
Every location is recorded with the product used.

Pricing in the Isle of Wight

The cost depends on the amount of work, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

Commercial buildings across the Isle of Wight

In the Isle of Wight, fire rated sealant work takes in washrooms, kitchens, shared areas and service openings, in Newport, Ryde and Cowes and well beyond. Work can be planned room by room, and out of hours where needed.

The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, though outside sealant still needs a dry, clean joint, so work across the Isle of Wight is planned around the weather. Parts of the Isle of Wight are on or near the coast, where wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt air are hard on outside sealant. Joints on seaward walls tend to fail first.

Newport: In and around Newport, as anywhere, good fire rated sealant starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint. Schools such as Nine Acres Primary School are buildings too, and service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.

Can I do it myself?

A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.

If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.

Landlord and commercial work in the Isle of Wight

For anyone letting property in or around the Isle of Wight, several properties can be quoted together. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we will quote.

When something else is needed

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

Certifying a building or signing off its fire safety
Construction that doesn’t provide fire resistance on its own
Assessing a building’s fire safety

Why act early?

Waiting for the next refit can leave a gap open for years. On its own, sealing it now is a small job that doesn’t depend on other work.

Questions to ask before you book

Who turns up on the day
Whether they’re fully insured
Whether they seal over old material or remove it
Which sealant they’ll use, and why

What affects the quote in the Isle of Wight

For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:

How much there is to do
When we can work, for business premises
How many areas need sealing
The product the joint needs

Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, along with when we can work on site. Ask us for a quote and we’ll explain what it covers.

What we need to know

When you contact us, these details help:

The address or postcode of the job
Roughly how big the job is
Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
Pictures of the joints, sent by email

The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is.

Questions from the Isle of Wight

How long will you be here?

A typical job takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.

What should I tell you?

Just the basics: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. Then phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

What sealant do you use?

Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We will tell you what we’re using and why.

Do you carry out fire risk assessments?

No. That is for a fire risk assessor, designer or building control. We apply fire-rated sealant to the requirements they set.

Is there any odour?

Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.

Do you work in the Isle of Wight?

Yes. We cover the Isle of Wight, as part of our work across South East England, London and Scotland. For a quote, call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Do you seal gaps around fire door frames?

Yes. The joint between frame and wall is sealed with a fire-rated sealant. The door, its seals and closer are for a door specialist.
