How we handle fire rated sealant in Eversley Cross
Until it’s heated, intumescent sealant behaves like an ordinary sealant; in a fire it expands into the joint. Which product suits a gap depends on its width, the materials either side and what runs through it, so we follow the tested detail for each one. If you have unsealed gaps around fire door frames and open holes round services passing through fire walls, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
For holiday lets, converted business premises or a community building near Eversley Cross, the washrooms, kitchens and any fire-rated joints need the same care as a big site.
A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

FAQs for Eversley Cross
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Crowthorne station?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders, and several properties can go on one quote. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Is Eversley Cross within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you carry out fire risk assessments?
No. Your fire risk assessor, designer or building control decides that. Our job is applying the sealant to their specification.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
Generally, yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available, and we’ll agree it with you first.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before applying anything new.
Can I use normal mastic around a pipe through a fire wall?
No. Where a fire-rated seal is needed, it has to be a product tested for that use, installed to its details.
Will it make a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We’re approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.
Signs you need fire rated sealant in Eversley Cross
Over time, buildings change layout and use. Conversions to flats and HMOs, and office refits, create new walls and new routes for services, with gaps to match.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant
- Fire stopping disturbed by later work
- Open joints along the top of partitions
- Gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls
For landlords with property near Crowthorne station, fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through.

DIY versus a professional finish
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
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.
What happens on the day
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the job takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access in most cases. For a village or hamlet like Eversley Cross, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- 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.
- Any non-fire-rated filler is removed.
- We fit backing where needed and apply the fire-rated sealant to depth.
- We hand over a list of locations and products.
How to prepare
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
Ask for a quote
Asking for a quote is easy: let us know what needs doing and where, and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help us understand the job.
Related advice
Why deal with it now?
Doing it once, properly, beats doing it twice. If the details weren’t followed, the seal may need redoing when the building is next checked. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Eversley Cross, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.

What fire rated sealant looks like in Eversley Cross
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 apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Charles Kingsley's Church of England Primary School, service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment. Community buildings like Church of St Mary are part of the picture too: older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking.

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Take photos of fire stopping before ceilings or boxing go back
- Ask every contractor to reseal any fire stopping they disturb
- Report cracked or damaged seals as soon as you notice them
- Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks
Don’t 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.
A flagged gap shouldn’t wait for the next assessment. Have it sealed, then keep the record.
