What fire rated sealant looks like in Brightwalton
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 work to the specification you are given, installing the product to its tested details.
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of All Saints, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building. If you look after a building such as Brightwalton C.E. Aided Primary School, service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.

About our fire rated sealant in Brightwalton
Fire stopping only performs as intended if it’s done to the detail: correct depth, correct backing and a product suited to the surfaces. That detail is what we take care over, one gap at a time. Common call-outs are for standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap and unsealed gaps around fire door frames, on door frames, flats & HMOs and pipe & cable gaps.
For holiday lets, converted business premises or a community building near Brightwalton, the washrooms, kitchens and any fire-rated joints need the same care as a big site.
You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Different surfaces, different methods
Linear gaps
Linear gaps run along the head of walls, at floor edges and between panels. We seal them to the tested detail, with backing where it’s needed.
Plasterboard walls
Many fire-resisting walls in flats, offices and conversions are plasterboard. We use a product tested in that kind of wall for each gap size.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Allow for resealing whenever new services are run
- File the fire-stopping record where your assessor can find it
- Do not paint over fire sealant until it has cured
- Keep general-purpose foam and caulk away from fire-stopping gaps
Keep the record we give you with the building’s fire safety documents. It helps whoever checks the building next.
If a fire risk assessment has flagged a gap, don’t leave it for the next one. Get it sealed and recorded.
What happens on the day
On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. Most jobs take from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. Somewhere like Brightwalton needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- Before starting, we go through the specification or action list with you.
- Each gap is measured and its substrate and service noted.
- Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out and the faces cleaned.

Advice
Landlord and commercial work in Brightwalton
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room. We have worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too. Several sites can be quoted together, and we are fully insured for the work.
Should I try it myself first?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
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.
Why it’s worth doing now in Brightwalton
If an assessor has flagged gaps, it makes sense to close them before the next review. Having them sealed and recorded now means you can show the action was taken. Older cottages and farmhouses around Brightwalton can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we will go through it with you.

What affects the quote in Brightwalton
We do not publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. What we look at:
- How many areas need sealing
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The amount of work
- Mould in or behind the old joints
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
What to tell us for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- The rough size of the job
- Whether it’s a home or a business
