Why it’s worth doing now in Bosham Hoe
Fire-rated sealants need more care than everyday sealant. How it’s installed changes how it performs, and we work to the product details every time. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Bosham Hoe, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.

What sealant work can’t fix
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:
- Fire risk assessments, which need a qualified assessor
- Sign-off of the building, which sits with building control or your assessor
- Problems with the door itself rather than the gap around the frame
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will tell you honestly.
What we seal
- Plasterboard & masonry

Can I do it myself?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.

Fire rated sealant around Bosham Hoe
For seaside hotels, guest houses and holiday lets around Bosham Hoe, busy months put washrooms and kitchens under pressure, so it’s worth checking the sealant before the busiest weeks. In England, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires a fire risk assessment for workplaces and for the common parts of blocks of flats, 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.
If you let a flat or house near Bosham station, any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product. For buildings such as The Parish Church of the Holy Trinity, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- File the fire-stopping record where your assessor can find it
- Include fire stopping when you schedule refits
- Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
- Do not fill fire-stopping gaps with ordinary foam or silicone
Let contractors know where fire stopping has been done, and ask them to reseal anything they cut through. Later work is a common cause of damaged fire stopping.
An open gap is not only a fire issue: they also let noise, draughts and sometimes pests through. Sealing them early helps on every front.
