Should I try DIY first?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Can you give us a record of the work?
Yes. Every gap we seal is listed with the product used.
Can you tell me how many minutes the seal will last?
We do not issue ratings or certificates ourselves. What’s required is set by your assessor or designer, and the product’s tested details show what it achieves, and we install to them.

Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. The old sealant always comes out first.

About our fire rated sealant in Bevendean
Later work by other trades often breaks through fire stopping, especially in flats, HMOs, offices and schools. A new cable run or a replaced pipe can leave an open hole behind. Those are the gaps we close, using a tested fire-rated product. We work on flats & HMOs, door frames and pipe & cable gaps, and common reasons people get in touch are open joints along the top of partitions and unsealed gaps around fire door frames.
Community buildings, schools and small businesses around places like Bevendean have washrooms and kitchens that see a lot of use. Their sealant and fire-rated joints are as important as those in any bigger building.
Our work is backed for twelve months, in Bevendean and everywhere else we cover.

What the job involves on each surface
Flats and HMOs
Converted houses often have gaps around old and new services. The gaps on your list are sealed with a fire-rated product and record where they are.
Door frames
Our work is the joint between frame and wall. Doors, seals and closers are for a door specialist and we will mention anything we notice.
Can I do it myself?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
What we do, step by step
There is not much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The work itself takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access, including the tidy-up. Parking around Bevendean is generally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.
- We begin by agreeing the list of gaps from your assessor’s or designer’s requirements.
- Each gap is measured and its substrate and service noted.
- Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out.
- The specified fire-rated sealant goes in over any backing its detail requires.
- We hand over a list of locations and products for your records.
Before we arrive
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Aftercare tips
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Check whether a sealant can be painted before decorating over it
- Keep general-purpose foam and caulk away from fire-stopping gaps
- File the fire-stopping record where your assessor can find it
- Photograph sealed gaps before they’re covered up
Don’t add foam, filler or ordinary sealant over a fire seal. If it needs repair, use the same type of product. Ask us if you’re not sure which product was used.
Open gaps don’t only matter in a fire: they also let noise, draughts and sometimes pests through. Dealing with them early helps with all of these.
Why deal with it now?
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. Homes in smaller places like Bevendean can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.

Signs you need fire rated sealant in Bevendean
Sealant applied too thin, without the backing its detail needs, or onto dust will not perform as it was tested. We see plenty of fire stopping that was hurried particularly when it was the last job before handover.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- New service routes left unsealed after building work
- Gaps filled with a product that is not fire-rated
- Unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall
- Open joints along the top of partitions
For buildings such as Holy Nativity Community Project, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.
Questions to ask before you book
- What product goes in the joint
- The length of the guarantee
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- What insurance they hold
