Fire rated sealant in Boorley Green: 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, which is often where open fire-stopping gaps are first noticed. We work to the specification you’re given, installing the product to its tested details.
For landlords with property near Hedge End station, fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through. Managing a site like Berrywood Primary School? Then service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St Luke's Church, older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking.

Fire rated sealant in Boorley Green, done properly
Until it’s heated, intumescent sealant behaves like an ordinary sealant; then it swells to help close the gap. Which product suits a gap depends on its width, the materials either side and what runs through it, so we follow the tested detail for each one. We work on plasterboard & masonry, linear gaps and pipe & cable gaps, and the jobs we see most are ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed and open gaps behind door architraves.
For a pub, café, guest house or shop in or near Boorley Green, the washrooms and kitchen need the same attention as a big site, and fire-rated sealant around service openings should be restored after new pipes or cables go through.

What else we do in Boorley Green
Can I do it myself?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, 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.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

What’s the difference between intumescent and fire-rated sealant?
An intumescent material expands when it’s heated. Intumescent sealants are a type of fire-rated sealant, and the choice depends on the gap.
How it works
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and explain the cure time. The visit itself normally takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access, depending on the amount of work. For a job in Boorley Green, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.
- We go through the gaps on your list or survey and check each one’s size and substrate.
- We remove any old or unsuitable filler and clean the gap.
- Where the tested detail needs backing or fill, we fit it.
- Fire-rated or intumescent sealant is applied to the right depth and tooled.
- Finally, we list where we worked and what we used, for your records.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Clear the area around the work

Advice
Keeping the joints in good condition
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Don’t fill fire-stopping gaps with ordinary foam or silicone
- Check whether a sealant can be painted before decorating over it
- File the fire-stopping record where your assessor can find it
- Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks
Tell other trades that the gaps have been sealed, and ask them to reseal anything they cut through. Later work is a common cause of damaged fire stopping.
When you plan work that goes through walls or ceilings, plan the fire stopping too. Doing it at the time avoids leaving gaps behind.
How we quote for fire rated sealant
We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:
- How much there is to do
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- The type of sealant required
- Access and height
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 we start, so you know where you stand.
What to tell us for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. Just tell us:
- The rough size of the job
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- Whether it’s a home or a business

How the job changes by surface
Linear gaps
Some linear gaps have to cope with movement as well as fire. We choose a product and depth that suit the gap and the movement.
Door frames
Our work is the joint between frame and wall. The door leaf, its seals and closer need a door specialist, and we’ll say if we spot a problem with them.
Why deal with it now?
Sealant isn’t the fix for every opening. Large holes, cable bundles and plastic pipes can call for batts, collars or wraps. We’ll say so if a gap needs something other than sealant. In an older home around Boorley Green, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, and that is a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll talk you through it.

Honest limits
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- Construction that does not provide fire resistance on its own
- Problems with the door itself rather than the gap around the frame
- Sign-off of the building, which sits with building control or your assessor
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think.
