Landlords, agents and businesses in Finkley Down

If you manage several properties in or around Finkley Down, several properties can go on one quote. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs, and pictures by email help.

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.

What affects the quote in Finkley Down

We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:

  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • Whether there’s mould to deal with
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • Which sealant suits the joint

Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.

Helping us quote

There’s no need for technical detail. Just tell us:

  • Photos by email, if that’s easy
  • If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking

Need a quote? Please call 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the job. You will know what we plan to do, and what it will cost, before any work begins.

DIY versus a professional finish

A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

Fire rated sealant in Finkley Down: local notes

We apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details.

What we do, step by step

We bring everything the job needs with us, so you don’t need to buy or prepare anything. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. For a village or hamlet like Finkley Down, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  1. We begin by agreeing the list of gaps from your assessor’s or designer’s requirements.
  2. Each gap is measured and its substrate and service noted.
  3. Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out.
  4. The specified fire-rated sealant goes in over any backing its detail requires.
  5. Every location is recorded with the product used.

Why deal with it now?

An open gap in a fire-resisting wall is a route for smoke and fire. A proper seal lets the wall do its job again, and the sealing itself is often a contained piece of work. Around Finkley Down, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, plus any working-time requirements on site. Ask us for a quote and we will go through it with you.

Signs you need fire rated sealant in Finkley Down

Door frames are a common weak spot. The gap between the frame and the wall is hidden behind the architrave, so it can be left open when a door is replaced.

The problems people usually mention when they call are:

  • Damaged fire sealant left by other trades
  • Gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment
  • Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
  • New service routes left unsealed after building work

Schools such as Vigo Primary School are buildings too, and gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices.

Surface by surface

Service penetrations

Pipes, cables and ducts passing through fire-resisting walls and floors each leave a gap. We seal it with a product tested for that service and gap size.

Plasterboard walls

We check that the board around the gap is sound. Crumbling edges are cleaned back before the sealant goes in.
