Landlord and commercial work in Aston
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. We can quote for more than one property at once.
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Aston
We do not assess buildings or decide what fire stopping is needed; 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 flats & HMOs, door frames and linear gaps, and people most often call us about gaps left after a refit or conversion and gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls.
In a village or hamlet like Aston, commercial work is more likely to be a pub, a farm shop, holiday lets or a village hall than an office block. Each still needs sound sealant in its washrooms and kitchens, and fire-rated joints where services pass through walls.
Our work is backed for twelve months.

Why deal with it now?
Doing it once, properly, beats doing it twice. Work that doesn’t follow the tested detail may have to come out again once someone inspects it. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Aston, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
Why us?
- A 12-month guarantee on all work
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
- Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme
- Full insurance on every job

Can I do it myself?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, 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.
What affects the cost of fire rated sealant
There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The size of the job
- Mould in or behind the old joints
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.
Helping us quote
To help us quote quickly, please include:
- If someone has resealed it before
- How we’d reach the joints
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
We quote each job on its own. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details and send photos if you have them.
What sealant work can’t fix
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- Large holes that need a different fire-stopping system
- Fire risk assessments, which need a qualified assessor
- Construction that doesn’t provide fire resistance on its own
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we seal
- Pipe & cable gaps
- Service penetrations
- Flats & HMOs

Fire rated sealant in Aston: local notes
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, and gaps around services are often picked up there. We work to the specification you’re given, installing the product to its tested details. There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Aston. Hotel work can be planned room by room, with out-of-hours working where needed.
Community buildings like Church of St Nicholas are part of the picture too: gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there. If you let a flat or house near Henley-On-Thames station, any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.

Yes. Locations and products are written up when we finish. Tell us if your assessor needs it in a particular format.
How the visit works
You don’t need to clear the whole room or building, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the job takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building for a typical job. For a village or hamlet like Aston, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- Access to each area is agreed so the work can run in order.
- We take out any damaged or unsuitable sealant.
- Dust and loose debris are cleaned from each gap.
- We apply and tool the sealant to the product’s tested detail.
- Locations and products are written up and any gaps unsuitable for sealant are flagged.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
Getting a quote
