About our fire rated sealant in Buckingham
Door frame gaps, linear joints and holes around services all have their own details. Measuring the gap and checking what it’s made of comes first, then the sealant goes in to the depth the product’s details set. We work on linear gaps, flats & HMOs and plasterboard & masonry, and common reasons people get in touch are unsealed gaps around fire door frames and gaps filled with a product that isn’t fire-rated.
Shared washrooms take far more use than a home bathroom, and their sealant shows it, while fire-rated sealant has to be made good whenever new pipes or cables go through. For a building in Buckingham, we plan timings around how it’s used.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

What else we do in Buckingham
What the job involves on each surface
Plasterboard walls
In plasterboard walls, the condition of the board edge matters. Crumbling edges are cleaned back before the sealant goes in.
Masonry and concrete
Core-drilled and broken-out holes in concrete are often irregular. We check the gap size around the service to make sure it suits the product.
Aftercare tips
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Never patch a fire seal with standard sealant
- Do not paint over fire sealant until it has cured
- File the fire-stopping record where your assessor can find it
- Photograph sealed gaps before they’re covered up
Tell other trades that the gaps have been sealed, and ask them to reseal anything they cut through. A lot of damaged fire stopping comes from later work.
Small gaps around services are simple to deal with while there are only a few. Leave them and each new job adds another hole and the job gets bigger.

What happens on the day
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building, and the area is left clean. In Buckingham, parking is rarely complicated, though it helps to know about driveways or restrictions, and let us know if the work is upstairs, in a flat or up high outside.
- First we work through your list or survey, measuring each gap and checking what it’s formed in.
- We remove any old or unsuitable filler and clean the gap.
- We put in whatever backing or fill the product detail specifies.
- We apply the fire-rated or intumescent sealant to the specified depth and tool it.
- Finally, we list where we worked and what we used, for your records.
How to prepare
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Mention any tricky access
- Move anything stored near the joints

Related advice
What happens if it’s left?
Items left open on a fire risk assessment tend to come back at the next review. Having them sealed and recorded now gives you evidence that the item was dealt with. Gaps in sealant and mould in the bead never get better on their own, and in a busy home in Buckingham they get worse with every use. Replacing the sealant now is the simplest fix.
Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are unsure, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.

Workplaces and buildings in Buckingham
Buckingham has hotels and guest accommodation in and around it. For hotels, a room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on. 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, 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 church, hall or community building such as St Peter and St Paul, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as George Grenville Academy, fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.

Should I try it myself first?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
