Do you need fire rated sealant in Beenham Stocks?
Gaps around door frames are easily missed. The architrave hides the gap between frame and wall, so it can be left open when a door is replaced.
People usually contact us when they notice something like this:
- Cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant
- Gaps left after a refit or conversion
- Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
- Open holes round services passing through fire walls
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Beenham Primary School, fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.
Before booking anyone
- Which colour the sealant will be
- Whether they’re fully insured
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
When something else is needed
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Walls or floors that weren’t built to resist fire
- Certifying a building or signing off its fire safety
- Openings too large for sealant, which need batts, boards or another system
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What affects the cost of fire rated sealant
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- How easy the joints are to reach
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- How many areas need sealing
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. We give a clear quote before work begins.
Helping us quote
To make quoting easier, let us know:
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- Whether it has been sealed before

Why deal with it now?
Fire-rated sealants are less forgiving than ordinary ones. Depth, backing and surface preparation all affect how a seal performs, and we work to the product details every time. In a small place like Beenham Stocks, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
We don’t show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will talk you through it.

Do you cover Beenham Stocks for fire rated sealant?

Do you work in flats, HMOs and commercial buildings?
Yes. We work in flats, HMOs, schools, offices and other commercial buildings, including occupied ones. The order of work and access are planned with you.
Do you provide details of the products used?
Yes. You get a list of where we worked and what we used for your files.
What should I tell you?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.
Is it worth trying it myself?
Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
Do I need to be at home?
That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.
Can you tell me which gaps need fire stopping?
No. Your fire risk assessor, designer or building control decides that. We apply fire-rated sealant to the requirements they set.

How to look after the new joints
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Keep the record of products and locations with your fire safety documents
- Flag any open gap you spot round a pipe or cable
- Keep pictures of seals that will be hidden
- Allow for resealing whenever new services are run
Follow the cure time we give you before decorating over the sealant. Some fire-rated sealants can be painted and some cannot, so ask us which we used.
An open gap isn’t only a fire issue: noise, draughts and even pests can come through too. Sealing them early helps on every front.
Should I try it myself first?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
Fire rated sealant in Beenham Stocks: local notes
Workplaces and the common parts of blocks of flats in England need a fire risk assessment under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, and gaps around services are often picked up there. We apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details.
Community buildings like Church of St Mary are part of the picture too: service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building. If you let a flat or house near Aldermaston station, any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.
