How we handle fire rated sealant in High Banton
Fire-rated sealant closes the gaps around pipes, cables and frames where they pass through a fire-resisting wall or floor. Each gap is sealed to the product maker’s tested detail for its size and substrate. We’re often asked to deal with gaps left after a refit or conversion and unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall, on service penetrations, pipe & cable gaps and linear gaps.
For holiday lets, guest houses and community buildings in or near High Banton, washroom and kitchen sealant and any fire-rated joints need the same attention as anywhere.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

Can I do it myself?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
How it works
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the work takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building in most cases. Outdoor work around High Banton depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Work indoors is not affected.
- First we work through your list or survey, measuring each gap and checking what it’s formed in.
- We remove any old or unsuitable filler and clean the gap.
- Where the tested detail needs backing or fill, we fit it.
- The sealant goes in to the depth its detail sets, then it’s tooled off.
- Finally, we list where we worked and what we used, for your records.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

When something else is needed
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:
- Certifying a building or signing off its fire safety
- A wall that is not a fire-resisting element to begin with
- Fire doors that need new seals, closers or hardware

Commercial buildings in High Banton

Community buildings like Banton Church are part of the picture too: service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.

Different surfaces, different methods
Plasterboard walls
We check that the board around the gap is sound. Loose material is removed so the sealant has a firm edge.
Flats and HMOs
In flats and HMOs, the walls and floors between homes and common areas need sealing where services pass through. We work through the gaps on your assessment, flat by flat if needed.
Keeping the joints in good condition
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Photograph sealed gaps before they’re covered up
- File the fire-stopping record where your assessor can find it
- Look in service cupboards and ceiling voids from time to time
- Check whether a sealant can be painted before decorating over it
Include fire stopping in your regular building checks. Watch for cracking, gaps or seals that have been disturbed and get them seen to.
A gap left open in a fire-resisting wall or floor lets smoke spread in ways the building wasn’t designed for. Closing it is generally a straightforward job.
What we’re called out for in High Banton
Over time, buildings change layout and use. A house turned into flats or an HMO, or an office split into smaller units, brings new walls, new service routes and new gaps.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant
- Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
- Gaps left after a refit or conversion
- Unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall
Letting a property close to Croy station? Then new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant.

What do you put in the joint?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, chosen to suit the joint. We explain the product when we quote.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, every time. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.
What’s the difference between intumescent and fire-rated sealant?
An intumescent sealant expands when it gets hot, helping close the gap. Intumescent sealants are one kind of fire-rated sealant; which product suits depends on the gap, the substrate and the service.
