What happens on the day
At the end, we look at the finished work together and tell you how long to leave it. The visit itself usually takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are, depending on the amount of work. In a small place like East Claydon, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We begin by agreeing the list of gaps from your assessor’s or designer’s requirements.
- Each gap is measured and its substrate and service noted.
- Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out.
- The specified fire-rated sealant goes in over any backing its detail requires.
- Every location is recorded with the product used for your files.
How to prepare
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the 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.

What affects the quote in East Claydon
For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- How easy the joints are to reach
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Any working-time requirements on site
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
What to tell us for a quote
You do not need to know the technical terms. Just tell us:
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Whether it has been sealed before
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
Getting a quote is simple: let us know the job and the location, and roughly how big it is. A few pictures by email make the job easier to understand, and we will take it from there.
Different surfaces, different methods
Service penetrations
New gaps tend to show up where services have been added. Old or unsuitable filler comes out before the right sealant goes in over any backing the detail calls for.
Door frames
A door can only do its job if the gap behind its frame is sealed too. We fill it with a fire-rated product suited to the materials either side.
What happens if it’s left?
An open gap in a fire-resisting wall is a route for smoke and fire. Sealing it properly restores what the wall was there to do, and the work involved is often modest. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like East Claydon, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.

What we are called out for in East Claydon
Sometimes the wrong product was used from the start: general-purpose foam, everyday silicone or caulk where a fire-rated seal was needed. It may look fine, but it isn’t a fire-rated seal.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall
- Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
- Holes left by a change of layout
- Gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment
Community buildings like Church of St Mary are part of the picture too: gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.
What to look for in a quote
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- How long the guarantee is
- What insurance they hold
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
