- Unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall
- Old fire sealant that has split or come away
- Gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs
How to look after the new joints
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Ask every contractor to reseal any fire stopping they disturb
- Keep photos of seals that will be hidden
- Don’t paint over fire sealant until it has cured
- Keep general-purpose foam and caulk away from fire-stopping gaps
Include fire stopping in your regular building checks. Look for cracks, gaps or sealant that has been cut or pulled out and have them put right.
Any job that breaks through a wall or ceiling should include resealing. Catching it then saves a separate visit later.
How we handle fire rated sealant in Goring
A fire seal relies on being installed the way it was tested: correct depth, correct backing and a product suited to the surfaces. That detail is what we take care over, one gap at a time. If you’re dealing with unsealed gaps around fire door frames and open joints along the top of partitions, we can help, on service penetrations, plasterboard & masonry and pipe & cable gaps alike.
Community buildings, schools and small businesses around places like Goring have washrooms and kitchens that see a lot of use. Their sealant and fire-rated joints are as important as those in any bigger building.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

How the visit works
At the end, we look at the finished work together and tell you how long to leave it. The visit itself generally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are, depending on how much there is to do. In a smaller place like Goring, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.
- Access to each area is agreed so the work can run in order.
- Old, damaged or unsuitable sealant is removed.
- Gaps are cleaned of dust and loose material.
- The fire-rated or intumescent sealant is applied and tooled to the tested detail.
- We record what was done and flag anything that needs a different system.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
How to get a quote
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is, and email pictures if that is easy.

What affects the cost of fire rated sealant
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether the work is at height
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- Any working-time requirements on site
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask a few questions first and give you a clear quote before we start.
What we need to know
When you contact us, these details help:
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Whether it has been sealed before
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
Call for a quick quote, or email us if that is easier. Describe what needs sealing and we will talk you through the work.
Commercial buildings in Goring
Workplaces and the common parts of blocks of flats in England need a fire risk assessment under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, and gaps around services are often picked up there. We work to the specification you are given, installing the product to its tested details. There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Goring. For hotels, a room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.
If you look after a building such as Goring Church of England Aided Primary School, gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of St Thomas of Canterbury, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Landlord and commercial work in Goring
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. We can quote for more than one property at once.
Letting agents and landlords in Goring can book us as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for.
Why act early in Goring
Sealant is not the fix for every opening. Large holes, cable bundles and plastic pipes can call for batts, collars or wraps. We will say so if a gap needs something other than sealant. In a smaller place like Goring, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.
Why book with us
- Old sealant always removed completely
- A 12-month guarantee on all work
- Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas
- Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme

- Door frames with gaps between frame and wall
- Damaged fire sealant left by other trades
- Gaps left after a refit or conversion
