Different services need different details: metal pipes, cables and plastic pipes are not treated the same. Each one is sealed to the product’s tested detail, and tell you if sealant alone is not the right fix.
Plasterboard walls
Plasterboard partitions are common in flats, offices and conversions. The sealant has to be one tested in plasterboard for the gap we are sealing.

How to look after the new joints
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Don’t fill fire-stopping gaps with ordinary foam or silicone
- Plan fire stopping into any work that goes through walls or floors
- Store the list of sealed gaps with your building paperwork
- Ask every contractor to reseal any fire stopping they disturb
Don’t add foam, filler or ordinary sealant over a fire seal. If it needs repair, use the same type of product. We can tell you which product we used.
A gap left open in a fire-resisting wall or floor lets smoke spread in ways the building wasn’t designed for. Sealing it early is a simple step to take.
Signs you need fire rated sealant in Curteis' Corner
A lot of fire stopping is out of sight: above ceilings, inside risers and behind panels. Because nobody sees it, gaps go unnoticed until an assessor or surveyor looks.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey
- Ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed
- Old fire sealant that has split or come away
- Gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls
Community buildings like Parish Church of All Saints are part of the picture too: service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.
