Intumescent and fire-rated sealant around gaps, frames and service penetrations for homeowners, landlords and businesses in Bembridge. Fully insured, ARBOMaster approved and guaranteed for a year.

How the job changes by surface
Masonry and concrete
Masonry is dusty and porous, so preparation matters. We brush and vacuum the gap and use backing where the detail needs it.
Door frames
We deal with the gap around the frame, not the door. Doors, seals and closers are for a door specialist, and we will say if we spot a problem with them.
Fire rated sealant in Bembridge, done properly
A gap around a door frame, a linear joint at the head of a wall and a hole round a pipe are each sealed differently. We check the size and the substrate before choosing the product, then the sealant goes in to the depth the product’s details set. We work on service penetrations, door frames and plasterboard & masonry, and common reasons people get in touch are ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed and gaps left after a refit or conversion.
Commercial work around a smaller place like Bembridge normally means a pub, a shop, a school or small business units rather than office blocks. The work is the same as in a big building, just on a smaller scale.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Do you hold any approvals?

Do you work in flats, HMOs and commercial buildings?

Can you quote for more than one area?

Is the work guaranteed?

Do I need to be at home?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that usually means someone at home.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
Usually, yes. Sealants come in white, clear, grey and other colours, and we agree the colour with you before we start.
Why act early in Bembridge
Paying for fire stopping that has to be redone is a false economy. If the details weren’t followed, the seal may need redoing when the building is next checked. In an older home around Bembridge, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
The cost 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 any work starts, so you know where you stand.

What we’re called out for in Bembridge
Lots of unsealed gaps appear long after the building was completed. Electricians, plumbers and data installers drill through walls and ceilings and the hole they leave doesn’t always get resealed.
The most common problems we see are:
- Damaged fire sealant left by other trades
- Door frames with gaps between frame and wall
- New service routes left unsealed after building work
- Linear gaps at the head of walls
If you let a flat or house near Brading station, fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through.
What your quote should include
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- When the joint can take water or movement
- Whether VAT is included
Landlords, agents and businesses in Bembridge
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report. Several properties can go on one quote.
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements.
Fire rated sealant around Bembridge
For seaside hotels, guest houses and holiday lets around Bembridge, heavy use in the busy months is hard on washroom and kitchen sealant, and any building work there should leave fire-rated joints made good. 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.
Managing a site like Bembridge Church of England Primary School? Then gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Bembridge Methodist Church, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.

How it works
A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and tidy away. It generally takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. A visit to Bembridge is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- We begin by agreeing the list of gaps from your assessor’s or designer’s requirements.
- 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 and the faces cleaned.
- The specified fire-rated sealant goes in over any backing its detail requires.
- Every location is recorded with the product used.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

What else we do in Bembridge
DIY versus a professional finish
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 fails, we can still redo it.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
