Bigger jobs can be worked through in stages, flat by flat or floor by floor, with each location and product recorded. That record is useful for your files and for whoever looks at the building next. We’re often asked to deal with gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs and door frames with gaps between frame and wall, on pipe & cable gaps, plasterboard & masonry and flats & HMOs.
If you have holiday lets, a converted barn used for business or a community building near Elvetham, washroom and kitchen sealant and any fire-rated joints need the same attention as anywhere.
Our work is backed for twelve months.

Common questions in Elvetham
Will you come out to Elvetham?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
I let a flat near Fleet station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Is it messy?
Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints.
Will there be a smell?
Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
Can you tell me how many minutes the seal will last?
We do not give ratings or certificates for our work. Your specification sets the requirement, and we fit a product whose tested details meet it with a record of each location.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before resealing.
Can ordinary silicone be used in a fire-stopping gap?
No. A gap that needs fire stopping needs a tested fire-rated product, installed to its details.
Aftercare tips
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Store the list of sealed gaps with your building paperwork
- Do not fill fire-stopping gaps with ordinary foam or silicone
- Report cracked or damaged seals as soon as you notice them
- Tell trades working in the building that fire seals must be put back
Do not drill through or remove a fire seal without putting it back properly. If you need new services through a sealed wall, plan the fire stopping as part of the job.
If a fire risk assessment has flagged a gap, do not leave it for the next one. Have it sealed, then keep the record so you can show it was dealt with.
Different surfaces, different methods
Linear gaps
Long, narrow gaps appear where walls meet slabs and ceilings. We seal them to the tested detail, with backing where it’s needed.
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.
For landlords and businesses
Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too in Elvetham and across Hampshire. We can quote a run of properties together.
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
Why it’s worth doing now in Elvetham
Squirting in whichever sealant is nearest doesn’t make a fire seal. A fire-rated product only performs as tested when it’s installed to its tested detail, which is why we match the product and the method to each gap. Older cottages and farmhouses around Elvetham can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.

Common problems we fix in Elvetham
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.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Fire seals that have cracked with movement
- Gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs
- Joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey
- Unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall
For landlords with property near Fleet station, fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through.
Questions to ask before you book
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- How hidden problems are handled
- How long the guarantee is
- Who turns up on the day
How it works
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you. The work normally takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access, depending on the size of the job. For a village or hamlet like Elvetham, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We begin by agreeing the list of gaps from your assessor’s or designer’s requirements.
- We measure every gap and note what it’s in and what passes through.
- Any non-fire-rated filler is removed and the gap cleaned.
- We fit backing where needed and apply the fire-rated sealant to depth.
- We hand over a list of locations and products for your files.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the work
- Mention any tricky access
- Tell us about any water getting in

What else we do in Elvetham
Fire rated sealant around Elvetham
Elvetham has hotels and guest accommodation in and around it. For hotels, a room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on. Workplaces and the common parts of blocks of flats in England need a fire risk assessment under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which is often where open fire-stopping gaps are first noticed. We work to the specification you are given, installing the product to its tested details.
Schools such as Elvetham Heath Primary School are buildings too, and fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of St Mary at Elvetham Hall, older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
