How we handle fire rated sealant in Fawler
Intumescent sealant looks much like any other sealant until it gets hot; 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. Typical jobs include gaps left after a refit or conversion and open gaps behind door architraves, on pipe & cable gaps, linear gaps and service penetrations.
Work in a small place like Fawler is planned ahead, journey included, so it can be fitted around guests, customers or events where possible.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Fawler as everywhere else we work.

Commercial buildings in Fawler
In England, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires a fire risk assessment for workplaces and for the common parts of blocks of flats, 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.
Managing a site like Finstock Church of England Primary School? Then fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in. For buildings such as Church of the Holy Trinity, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building. Letting a property close to Finstock station? Then fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through.

Can I do it myself?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
How the visit works
The work is kept neat and contained to the area we’re working on, so you can get on with your day. Expect the work to take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. In a small place like Fawler, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- 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.
- Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out and the faces cleaned.
- We fit backing where needed and apply the fire-rated sealant to depth.
- We hand over a list of locations and products.
Getting ready for the visit

Aftercare tips
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Include fire stopping when you schedule refits
- Report cracked or damaged seals as soon as you notice them
- Tell trades working in the building that fire seals must be put back
- File the fire-stopping record where your assessor can find it
Don’t add foam, filler or ordinary sealant over a fire seal. Repairs should use a matching fire-rated product. Ask us if you’re not sure which product was used.
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.
Leave it or put it right?
Fire-rated sealants need more care than everyday sealant. Depth, backing and surface preparation all affect how a seal performs, and we work to the product details every time. In a small place like Fawler, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re unsure, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.
