Fire rated sealant in Coley Park, done properly
Filling a fire-stopping gap with standard silicone or caulk doesn’t make it fire-rated. Anything unsuitable comes out first and reseal with a fire-rated product tested for that kind of gap. We work on door frames, flats & HMOs and plasterboard & masonry, and the jobs we see most are cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant and gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment.
For a pub, café, guest house or shop in or near Coley Park, the washrooms and kitchen need the same attention as a big site, and fire-rated sealant around service openings should be restored after new pipes or cables go through.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

When it isn’t the sealant
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:
- Openings too large for sealant, which need batts, boards or another system
- Construction that does not provide fire resistance on its own
- Doors that aren’t fire doors in the first place
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Pipe & cable gaps
- Service penetrations
- Linear gaps
- Flats & HMOs
- Door frames
- Plasterboard & masonry
Different surfaces, different methods
Flats and HMOs
In flats and HMOs, the walls and floors between homes and common areas need sealing where services pass through. We work through the gaps on your assessment.
Linear gaps
Gaps along the top of partitions are easy to miss above a ceiling. We seal them along their full length leaving no stretch unsealed.
Leave it or put it right?
For some gaps, sealant is not the right answer and another system is needed. Large holes, cable bundles and plastic pipes can call for batts, collars or wraps. We will say so if a gap needs something other than sealant. In an older home around Coley Park, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.

What we do, step by step
All our tools and materials come with us in the van. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. For a job in Coley Park, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.
- 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
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

If you let a flat or house near Reading West station, new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as St Mary & All Saints Church of England Primary School, service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as All Nations Christian Centre, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.

Can I do it myself?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
