How the job changes by surface
Masonry and concrete
Preparation counts on brick, block and concrete. The gap is cleaned and backed where required before applying the sealant.
Door frames
A door can only do its job if the gap behind its frame is sealed too. We fill it with a fire-rated product suited to the materials either side.
Fire rated sealant in Aston Clinton
Deciding which gaps need fire stopping isn’t our role; your assessor, designer or building control sets that out. Our part is applying the specified sealant carefully, to the right depth and with the right backing. We work on door frames, linear gaps and pipe & cable gaps, and the jobs we see most are open gaps behind door architraves and fire stopping disturbed by later work.
If you run a pub, café, guest house or shop in or near Aston Clinton, the washrooms and kitchen need the same attention as a big site, and fire-rated sealant around service openings should be restored after new pipes or cables go through.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

Workplaces and buildings in Aston Clinton
In England, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires a fire risk assessment for workplaces and for the common parts of blocks of flats, 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 site and facilities teams at buildings such as Aston Clinton School, gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices. Letting a property close to Stoke Mandeville station? Then any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product. For buildings such as St Michael and All Angels Church, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.

Can I do it myself?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
How the visit works
There is not much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we’ll get on with it. The job generally takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building, including the tidy-up. Parking around Aston Clinton is generally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.
- We go through the gaps on your list or survey and check each one’s size and substrate.
- Old or unsuitable sealant is cut out and the gap cleaned.
- Backing or fill is fitted where the product’s tested detail calls for it.
- We apply the fire-rated or intumescent sealant to the specified depth and tool it.
- Locations and products are noted so you have them on file.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Mention any tricky access
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

When it is not the sealant
We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:
- Fire doors that need new seals, closers or hardware
- Big openings where sealant alone is not the tested solution
- Issuing a fire rating or certificate for a building
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Pipe & cable gaps
- Service penetrations
- Door frames
- Plasterboard & masonry
- Flats & HMOs
- Linear gaps
How to look after the new joints
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Get damaged fire seals looked at promptly
- Take photos of fire stopping before ceilings or boxing go back
- Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
- Ask which product was used before you paint
Do not drill through or remove a fire seal without putting it back properly. If you need new services through a sealed wall, plan the fire stopping as part of the job.
When you plan work that goes through walls or ceilings, plan the fire stopping too. Catching it then saves a separate visit later.
What happens if it’s left?
Leaving a gap until a refurbishment comes round can mean years with it open. On its own, sealing it now is a small job. In a smaller place like Aston Clinton, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.

Can you do fire rated sealant in Aston Clinton?
Yes, Aston Clinton is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing.
Is Aston Clinton within the area you cover?
Yes, Aston Clinton is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can I use normal mastic around a pipe through a fire wall?
No. A gap that needs fire stopping needs a tested fire-rated product fitted to the maker’s details.
Do you work in flats, HMOs and commercial buildings?
Yes. Occupied flats, HMOs, offices and schools are all fine and we plan access around the people using them. Early starts or out-of-hours work can be arranged.
Is it messy?
Tidy work is part of the job. Nearby surfaces are protected, and the area is left clean when we finish.
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.
Does someone need to be in?
We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, and it traps any mould or water underneath. We remove it all first.
