- Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
- Open gaps behind door architraves
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after new joints is easy:
- File the fire-stopping record where your assessor can find it
- Keep photos of seals that will be hidden
- Allow for resealing whenever new services are run
- Flag any open gap you spot round a pipe or cable
Let contractors know where fire stopping has been done, and make sure anything they disturb is resealed with a suitable product. Later work is a common cause of damaged fire stopping.
If a fire risk assessment has flagged a gap, don’t leave it for the next one. Get it sealed and recorded.

Durford Wood: your questions answered
Do you cover smaller places like Durford Wood?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Can you do fire rated sealant in Durford Wood?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Durford Wood is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Can you tell me which gaps need fire stopping?
No. We work from the specification you give us and install to the manufacturer’s details.
What do you put in the joint?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we’ll explain our choice.
Will you leave a mess?
Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
Do you certify the fire stopping?
That isn’t something we state or certify. The requirement comes from your assessor, designer or building control, and we fit a product whose tested details meet it, recording the locations and products.
What does fire rated sealant cost?
We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. We agree the price before any work begins.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, we can. More than one area can be quoted together.
DIY versus a professional finish
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.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
Do you need fire rated sealant in Durford Wood?
Sometimes the wrong product was used from the start: ordinary expanding foam, standard silicone or decorators’ caulk where a fire-rated seal was needed. It looks sealed, but it is not fire-rated.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Open holes round services passing through fire walls
- Joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey
- Linear gaps at the head of walls
- Unsealed gaps around fire door frames
For buildings such as Church of St Mary, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.

What happens on the day
Once we’re on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. Somewhere as small as Durford Wood, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- Access to each area is agreed so the work can run in order.
- We take out any damaged or unsuitable sealant.
- Gaps are cleaned of dust and loose material.
- The fire-rated or intumescent sealant is applied and tooled to the tested detail.
- Locations and products are written up and any gaps unsuitable for sealant are flagged.
How to prepare
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Fire rated sealant around Durford Wood

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Liss Infant School, gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices. If you let a flat or house near Liss station, any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.
