Fire-stopping gaps in Bramfield need attention? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
- Gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs

How the visit works
On the day, we look over the joints with you first, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work starts. Most jobs take a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. In a small place like Bramfield, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- Access to each area is agreed so the work can run in order.
- We take out any damaged or unsuitable sealant.
- Dust and loose debris are cleaned from each gap.
- We apply and tool the sealant to the product’s tested detail.
- We record what was done and flag anything that needs a different system.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Clear the area around the work
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

What affects the cost of fire rated sealant
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The type of sealant required
- The size of the job
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

Why act early in Bramfield
An unsealed gap lets smoke and fire get round a wall that was built to hold them back. A proper seal lets the wall do its job again, and the work involved is often modest. Around Bramfield, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

Can I do it myself?
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.
Fire rated sealant in Bramfield: 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, and gaps around services are often picked up there. We apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details.
If you look after a building such as The Sele School, service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment. For buildings such as Church of St Andrew, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there. Letting a property close to Watton-At-Stone station? Then fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Ask which product was used before you paint
- Ask every contractor to reseal any fire stopping they disturb
- Look in service cupboards and ceiling voids from time to time
- Plan fire stopping into any work that goes through walls or floors
Look at the sealed gaps as part of your routine walk-rounds. Look for cracks, gaps or sealant that has been cut or pulled out and have them put right.
It’s easiest to seal gaps while they’re few and easy to reach. Over time, more work adds more holes.
What we cannot put right
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Big openings where sealant alone isn’t the tested solution
- Fire risk assessments, which need a qualified assessor
- Issuing a fire rating or certificate for a building
