Leave it or put it right?
Leaving a gap until a refurbishment comes round can mean years with it open. On its own, sealing it now is a small job. In a small place like Gomshall, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we ask about the job first and send you a clear quote before work begins.

Fire rated sealant in Gomshall
Intumescent sealant looks much like any other sealant until it gets hot; then it swells to help close the gap. 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 joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey and unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall, we can put it right, on linear gaps, door frames and pipe & cable gaps alike.
In a village or hamlet like Gomshall, commercial work is more likely to be a pub, a farm shop, holiday lets or a village hall than an office block. They all have washrooms, kitchens and service openings that need the right sealant.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee.

Landlord and commercial work in Gomshall
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. We can quote for more than one property at once.
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
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.
Workplaces and buildings in Gomshall
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, and gaps around services are often picked up there. We apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details.
For buildings such as The Church of St James, older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Shere CofE Aided Infant School, fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in. For landlords with property near Gomshall station, new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant.

How to look after the new joints
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Take pictures of fire stopping before ceilings or boxing go back
- Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks
- Include fire stopping when you schedule refits
- Keep the record of products and locations with your fire safety documents
File the record of locations and products with your fire safety paperwork. It helps whoever checks the building next.
A flagged gap shouldn’t wait for the next assessment. Get it sealed and recorded so the item can be closed.
What the job involves on each surface
Masonry and concrete
Brick, block and concrete walls and floors are sealed with products tested in masonry. The gap is cleaned of dust first so the seal has something sound to bond to.
Service penetrations
Different services need different details: metal pipes, cables and plastic pipes aren’t treated the same. Each one is sealed to the product’s tested detail, and tell you if sealant alone is not the right fix.
When it isn’t the sealant
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Fire doors that need new seals, closers or hardware
- Certifying a building or signing off its fire safety
- Assessing a building’s fire safety
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.

How the visit works
We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. For a village or hamlet like Gomshall, 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.
- Before starting, we go through the specification or action list with you.
- Each gap is measured and its substrate and service noted.
- Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out.
- The specified fire-rated sealant goes in over any backing its detail requires.
- We hand over a list of locations and products.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the work
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Should I try DIY first?
Sometimes. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.
Do I have to be there?
That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.
Do you provide details of the products used?
Yes. Every gap we seal is listed with the product used.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
Do the sealants smell?
That depends on the sealant. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little, and any smell fades as they cure.
