The process
Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and tidy away. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. Somewhere as small as Chicheley, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- 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.
- Where the tested detail needs backing or fill, we fit it.
- The sealant goes in to the depth its detail sets, then it’s tooled off.
- Finally, we list where we worked and what we used, for your records.
Before we arrive
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on

Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Chicheley
Where services or frames pass through a fire-resisting wall or floor, the gap around them needs a fire-rated seal. We apply intumescent and fire-rated sealants to the manufacturer’s tested details for each gap, and we can record what went where. If you’re dealing with unsealed gaps around fire door frames and holes left by a change of layout, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Somewhere as small as Chicheley, commercial jobs tend to be pubs, holiday lets, farm buildings or halls rather than offices. Each still needs sound sealant in its washrooms and kitchens, and fire-rated joints where services pass through walls.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

What the job involves on each surface
Service penetrations
Pipes, cables and ducts passing through fire-resisting walls and floors each leave a gap. We seal it with a product tested for that service and gap size.
Plasterboard walls
In plasterboard walls, the condition of the board edge matters. Crumbling edges are cleaned back before the sealant goes in.
Workplaces and buildings in Chicheley
Chicheley has hotels and guest accommodation in and around it. Hotel work can be planned room by room, with out-of-hours working where needed. 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, which is often where open fire-stopping gaps are first noticed. We apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details.
Managing a site like Sherington Church of England School? Then service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.

Common problems we fix in Chicheley
Much fire stopping is hidden: in ceiling voids, service risers and behind boxing. Out of view, damage sits unnoticed until someone inspects.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant
- Open joints along the top of partitions
- Door frames with gaps between frame and wall
- Gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment
For buildings such as Church of St Lawrence, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Landlords and agents in Chicheley can book us as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order.
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy. We can quote for more than one property at once.
Looking after it afterwards
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Keep pictures of seals that will be hidden
- Do not fill fire-stopping gaps with ordinary foam or silicone
- Include fire stopping when you schedule refits
- Flag any open gap you spot round a pipe or cable
Avoid covering a sealed gap with anything that isn’t part of the tested detail. If it needs repair, use the same type of product. Ask us if you’re not sure which product was used.
It’s easiest to seal gaps while they’re few and easy to reach. Leave them and each new job adds another hole.
