What happens on the day
At the end, we look at the finished work together. The visit itself usually takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are, depending on how much there is to do. Parking in a town like Havant is generally straightforward, but tell us if there’s a driveway or any restrictions, and let us know if the work is upstairs, in a flat or up high outside.
- First we work through your list or survey, measuring each gap and checking what it’s formed in.
- Anything that isn’t fit for the job comes out, and the gap is cleaned.
- Backing or fill is fitted where the product’s tested detail calls for it.
- The sealant goes in to the depth its detail sets, then it’s tooled off.
- Locations and products are noted so you have them on file.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Mention any parking rules near the property

Advice
Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Havant
A fire seal relies on being installed the way it was tested: the right depth, the right backing and the right product for the substrate. That’s the part we focus on, one gap at a time. We work on flats & HMOs, plasterboard & masonry and linear gaps, and common reasons people get in touch are old fire sealant that has split or come away and open joints along the top of partitions.
Shared washrooms take far more use than a home bathroom, and their sealant shows it, and fire-rated joints need restoring whenever new services are run through a wall. For a building in Havant, we plan timings around how it’s used.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

Should I try it myself first?
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. All the old material has to come out first.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.

Why it’s worth doing now in Havant
An unsealed gap lets smoke and fire get round a wall that was built to hold them back. A proper seal lets the wall do its job again, and the work involved is often modest. Around Havant, failed sealant lets water into hidden places, such as under the floor, behind a panel or into a wall. Whatever the joint, failed sealant only gets worse.
What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.

How the job changes by surface
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.
Masonry and concrete
Preparation counts on brick, block and concrete. We brush and vacuum the gap and use backing where the detail needs it before applying the sealant.

Can I do it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
What does intumescent mean?
Fire-rated sealant covers any sealant tested for use in fire stopping. Intumescent types expand when heated, and they’re one of the options. The specification and the tested detail decide which is used.
Do you need fire rated sealant in Havant?
Sealant applied too thin, without the backing its detail needs, or onto dust will not perform as it was tested. Rushed fire stopping is common, especially where it was squeezed in at the end of a project.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Damaged fire sealant left by other trades
- Unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall
- Linear gaps at the head of walls
- Cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant
Schools such as Trosnant Infant School are buildings too, and service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.
