How we handle fire rated sealant in Bouldnor
Until it’s heated, intumescent sealant behaves like an ordinary sealant; then it swells to help close the gap. The right product depends on the gap size, the substrate and what passes through, so we work to the manufacturer’s details. We work on service penetrations, flats & HMOs and linear gaps, and the jobs we see most are gaps filled with a product that isn’t fire-rated and seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers.
Somewhere as small as Bouldnor, commercial jobs tend to be pubs, holiday lets, farm buildings or halls rather than offices. They all have washrooms, kitchens and service openings that need the right sealant.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
What the job involves on each surface
Linear gaps
A linear joint may need to allow for movement as well as fire. The product and depth are chosen to suit both from the manufacturer’s details.
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.
Signs you need fire rated sealant in Bouldnor
Over time, buildings change layout and use. A house turned into flats or an HMO, or an office split into smaller units, brings new walls, new service routes and new gaps.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Gaps left after a refit or conversion
- Open holes round services passing through fire walls
- Gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs
- Gaps filled with a product that is not fire-rated
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Yarmouth Church of England Aided Primary School, fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.

Why act early in Bouldnor
Waiting for the next refit can leave a gap open for years. On its own, sealing it now is a small job. Around Bouldnor, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
