Fire Rated Sealant in Elvendon
Professional fire rated sealant in and around Elvendon, with old sealant always removed completely.
- Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
- Joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey
- Unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall
Keeping the joints in good condition
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Allow for resealing whenever new services are run
- Flag any open gap you spot round a pipe or cable
- Store the list of sealed gaps with your building paperwork
- Never patch a fire seal with standard sealant
File the record of locations and products with your fire safety paperwork. It saves time at the next inspection or assessment.
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.
Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Elvendon
Ordinary silicone or decorators’ caulk in a fire-stopping gap isn’t a fire-rated seal. Anything unsuitable comes out first and reseal with a fire-rated product tested for that kind of gap. If you have fire seals that have cracked with movement and gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment, we can help, whatever the surface.
If you have holiday lets, a converted barn used for business or a community building near Elvendon, washroom and kitchen sealant and any fire-rated joints need the same attention as anywhere.

Questions from Elvendon
Do you work for landlords with property near Goring & Streatley station?

Can you tell me which gaps need fire stopping?

How do I get a quote for fire rated sealant in Elvendon?
Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. To get one, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a short description of the job.
Can you give us a record of the work?
Yes. Every gap we seal is listed with the product used, so you have it on file.
Can I do it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator and we’re fully insured too.
What happens if it’s left?
A quick fill with any sealant to hand isn’t fire stopping. Fire-rated products are tested in set gap sizes, depths and substrates, so both the product and the method matter. Older cottages and farmhouses around Elvendon can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Combining jobs into one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We will give you a clear price for the lot.

The process
Good joint work is mostly preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it normally takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. For a village or hamlet like Elvendon, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- Access to each area is agreed so the work can run in order.
- Old, damaged or unsuitable sealant is removed.
- Dust and loose debris are cleaned from each gap.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us if parking is tricky

Advice
Should I try it myself first?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

When to call us in Elvendon
Gaps also open up as buildings move: cracked or debonded sealant leaves an open route through the wall. Damage from cleaning, knocks and maintenance adds to it.
The most common problems we see are:
- Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
- Holes left by a change of layout
- Door frames with gaps between frame and wall
- Linear gaps at the head of walls
If you look after a building such as The Oratory Preparatory School, fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- Whether they’re fully insured
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- What product goes in the joint
Fire rated sealant around Elvendon

We work to the specification you are given, installing the product to its tested details.
If you let a flat or house near Goring & Streatley station, new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant.
