Fire rated sealant in Godshill
We do not assess buildings or decide what fire stopping is needed; your assessor, designer or building control sets that out. What we do is apply the right product to that specification, properly and neatly. We work on linear gaps, pipe & cable gaps and plasterboard & masonry, and people most often call us about linear gaps at the head of walls and new service routes left unsealed after building work.
Somewhere as small as Godshill, commercial jobs tend to be pubs, holiday lets, farm buildings or halls rather than offices. They all have washrooms, kitchens and service openings that need the right sealant.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee.

What fire rated sealant looks like in Godshill
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’re given, installing the product to its tested details.
If you look after a building such as Godshill Primary School, gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices. If you let a flat or house near Shanklin station, any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.

Questions from Godshill
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Shanklin station?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Is Godshill in your area for fire rated sealant?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Godshill is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Will you leave a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Where are you based?
Our base is Crawley, with over 20 years’ experience. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Do you do fire sealant around door frames?
Yes. We seal the gap between the frame and the wall with a suitable fire-rated product. The door leaf and its hardware need a door specialist.
Which products do you use?
It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
How much does fire rated sealant cost in Godshill?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. For a quick quote, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing and where.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We’re an ARBOMaster approved applicator, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.
What happens if it’s left?
Paying for fire stopping that has to be redone is a false economy. If the details weren’t followed, the seal may need redoing when the building is next checked. Older cottages and farmhouses around Godshill can have timber 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. Call for a quick quote and we’ll go through it with you.

What we are called out for in Godshill
Gaps around door frames are easily missed. The architrave hides the gap between frame and wall, so it can be left open when a door is replaced.
Look out for these signs:
- Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
- New service routes left unsealed after building work
- Fire seals that have cracked with movement
- Open holes round services passing through fire walls
Community buildings like All Saints' Church are part of the picture too: gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.
What to look for in a quote
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- Is VAT in the price?
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Godshill, jobs at different addresses can go on one quote. Send us the addresses and the work at each, and pictures by email help.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
How the job changes by surface
Masonry and concrete
Holes through concrete and block are rarely neat. We check the gap size around the service to make sure it suits the product.
Door frames
A door can only do its job if the gap behind its frame is sealed too. We fill it with a fire-rated product suited to the materials either side.
Quotes for fire rated sealant in Godshill
Every job gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The number and length of the joints
- When we can work, for business premises
- Mould in or behind the old joints
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
What to tell us for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- Where the property is
- How we’d reach the joints
- A few photos by email, if you can
- The type of property
Every job is quoted individually, so the first step is telling us about yours. Simply call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and describe the job.
What we can’t put right
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- Problems with the door itself rather than the gap around the frame
- Sign-off of the building, which sits with building control or your assessor
- A wall that isn’t a fire-resisting element to begin with
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we seal
- Plasterboard & masonry
- Door frames
