Fire rated sealant in Bure Park
Bigger jobs can be worked through in stages, flat by flat or floor by floor, noting the locations and products as we go. It gives you a list to keep with the building’s fire safety documents. If you are dealing with open holes round services passing through fire walls and old fire sealant that has split or come away, we can help.
For a pub, café, guest house or shop in or near Bure Park, its washrooms and kitchen need the same sealant care as any big building, and fire-rated sealant around service openings should be restored after new pipes or cables go through.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Look in service cupboards and ceiling voids from time to time
- Plan fire stopping into any work that goes through walls or floors
- Take pictures of fire stopping before ceilings or boxing go back
- Tell trades working in the building that fire seals must be put back
Include fire stopping in your regular building checks. Look for cracks, gaps or sealant that has been cut or pulled out and get them seen to.
Open gaps do not only matter in a fire: they also let noise, draughts and sometimes pests through. Dealing with them early helps with all of these.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Leave it or put it right?
For some gaps, sealant isn’t the right answer and another system is needed. Big openings, bundles of cables and plastic pipes may need batts, collars or wraps instead. We’ll say so if a gap needs something other than sealant. In an older home around Bure Park, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.

What fire rated sealant looks like in Bure Park
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 let a flat or house near Bicester North station, new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant. Community buildings like Emmanuel Church Bicester are part of the picture too: service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building. If you look after a building such as Bure Park Primary School, gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices.

How we quote for fire rated sealant
Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:
- The size of the job

The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.

What happens on the day
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, protect the area around them, carry out the job and clear up. Most jobs take a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. A visit to Bure Park is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- We go through the gaps on your list or survey and check each one’s size and substrate.
- Old or unsuitable sealant is cut out and the gap cleaned.
- Backing or fill is fitted where the product’s tested detail calls for it.
- Fire-rated or intumescent sealant is applied to the right depth and tooled.
- Finally, we list where we worked and what we used, for your records.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Advice
Your questions about fire rated sealant in Bure Park
Is Bure Park in your area for fire rated sealant?
Yes, Bure Park is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing.
Do you work for landlords with property near Bicester North station?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Do you do fire sealant around door frames?
Yes. Gaps behind architraves are a common job for us. The door and its fittings are a separate job for a door specialist.
Do you work in flats, HMOs and commercial buildings?
Yes, whether the building is a school, an office, flats or an HMO, and whether it’s in use or not. Tell us how the building is used and we will plan around it.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
Is intumescent sealant the same as fire-rated sealant?
Fire-rated sealant covers any sealant tested for use in fire stopping. Intumescent types expand when heated, and they’re one option among several. We use whichever the specification and tested details call for.
Do I need to be at home?
That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access, and for outside work we’ll agree access with you when we book.
Are you insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work.
When something else is needed
To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:
- Big openings where sealant alone is not the tested solution
- Construction that does not provide fire resistance on its own
- Fire doors that need new seals, closers or hardware
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we seal
- Service penetrations
- Flats & HMOs
- Linear gaps
- Door frames
- Pipe & cable gaps
- Plasterboard & masonry
What the job involves on each surface
Door frames
A door can only do its job if the gap behind its frame is sealed too. We seal that gap with a fire-rated sealant suited to the frame and wall.
Flats and HMOs
Working in occupied flats needs some planning. We agree access to each flat and the common parts before we start.
