What we’re called out for in Boveney
Lots of unsealed gaps appear long after the building was completed. Electricians, plumbers and data installers drill through walls and ceilings and the hole they leave does not always get resealed.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Fire stopping disturbed by later work
- Open gaps behind door architraves
- Open joints along the top of partitions
- Gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment
If you look after a building such as Homer First School and Nursery, fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.
What your quote should include
- Whether VAT is included
- Are they insured?
- How the colour is chosen
- What happens if the job turns out different
How we handle fire rated sealant in Boveney
Deciding which gaps need fire stopping is not our role; your assessor, designer or building control sets that out. What we do is apply the right product to that specification, properly and neatly. Common call-outs are for gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls and unsealed gaps around fire door frames, across door frames, linear gaps and pipe & cable gaps.
Work in a small place like Boveney is planned ahead, journey included, so it can be fitted around guests, customers or events where possible.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same 12-month guarantee in Boveney and across Windsor and Maidenhead.

Why it’s worth doing now in Boveney
Doing it once, properly, beats doing it twice. If the details weren’t followed, the seal may need redoing once someone inspects it. Older cottages and farmhouses around Boveney can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

- How many areas need sealing
- Mould in or behind the old joints

Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.

- Roughly how big the job is
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- If someone has resealed it before

What happens on the day
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work starts. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. Somewhere as small as Boveney, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- 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.
- Locations and products are written up and any gaps unsuitable for sealant are flagged.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Mention any parking rules near the property
Getting a quote
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is, and email pictures if that is easy.

Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Large holes that need a different fire-stopping system
- A wall that isn’t a fire-resisting element to begin with
- Sign-off of the building, which sits with building control or your assessor
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think.

Do you work for landlords with property near Windsor & Eton Central station?

Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, it won’t last. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. The old sealant has to come out completely.
What fire rating will the seal have?
We don’t certify fire stopping or quote ratings. Our part is installing the specified product to its tested details and giving you a record of where it went.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and we’ll quote it together.
How much does fire rated sealant cost in Boveney?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.
Can I do it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
How long will you be here?
A typical job takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. We will confirm how long when we quote.
Surface by surface
Masonry and concrete
Holes through concrete and block are rarely neat. We measure the gap at its widest point to make sure it suits the product.
Flats and HMOs
Conversions normally leave a mix of old and new service holes. We seal the ones on your specification with a tested product.
Keeping the joints in good condition
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Plan fire stopping into any work that goes through walls or floors
- Keep general-purpose foam and caulk away from fire-stopping gaps
- Check whether a sealant can be painted before decorating over it
- Keep photos of seals that will be hidden
Don’t add foam, filler or ordinary sealant over a fire seal. Repairs should use a matching fire-rated product. We can tell you which product we used.
Leave a fire-stopping gap open and smoke can move through the building much more easily. Sealing it early is a simple step to take.
Fire rated sealant around Boveney
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.
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St Mary Magdalene's Church, older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking. If you let a flat or house near Windsor & Eton Central station, new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant.
