Should I try it myself first?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
Commercial buildings in Bepton
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 work to the specification you are given, installing the product to its tested details.
For buildings such as The Parish Church of St Mary, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.

Do you need fire rated sealant in Bepton?
A lot of fire stopping is out of sight: in ceiling voids, service risers and behind boxing. Out of view, damage sits unnoticed until someone inspects.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Gaps left after a refit or conversion
- Fire stopping disturbed by later work
- Unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall
- Gaps filled with a product that is not fire-rated
Around Bepton, as everywhere, fire rated sealant is only as good as the preparation behind it.

How to look after the new joints
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Photograph sealed gaps before they’re covered up
- Allow for resealing whenever new services are run
- Ask every contractor to reseal any fire stopping they disturb
- Look in service cupboards and ceiling voids from time to time
Any fire seal that is cut or drilled needs resealing to its tested detail. New services through a sealed wall should include fire stopping in the plan.
Leave a fire-stopping gap open and smoke can move through the building much more easily. Closing it is usually a straightforward job.
Why deal with it now?
Items left open on a fire risk assessment tend to come back at the next review. Getting them done and written up gives you evidence that the item was dealt with. Around Bepton, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

Where are you based?

I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often happy for the work to be arranged.
Will you assess my building’s fire safety?

Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
Do you do fire sealant around door frames?
Yes, if the gap is within the product’s tested range. We seal the frame-to-wall gap, not the door itself and we’ll tell you if we spot problems with the door.
For landlords and businesses
From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy. Several properties can be quoted together.
The process
You do not need to clear the whole room or building before we come, just the space around the work. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access for a typical job. For a village or hamlet like Bepton, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We plan the order of work and access, floor by floor or flat by flat.
- Old, damaged or unsuitable sealant is removed.
- Gaps are cleaned of dust and loose material.
- We apply and tool the sealant to the product’s tested detail.
- We record what was done and flag anything that needs a different system.
Preparing for the visit

- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

What else we do in Bepton
When it isn’t the sealant
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t solve:
- Sign-off of the building, which sits with building control or your assessor
- A wall that is not a fire-resisting element to begin with
- Big openings where sealant alone isn’t the tested solution
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think.
What we seal
- Plasterboard & masonry
- Pipe & cable gaps
- Flats & HMOs
