Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we’ll give you a quote.
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. We have worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Include hidden areas like risers in routine checks
- Don’t fill fire-stopping gaps with ordinary foam or silicone
- File the fire-stopping record where your assessor can find it
- Report cracked or damaged seals as soon as you notice them
Avoid covering a sealed gap with anything that is not part of the tested detail. If it needs repair, use the same type of product. Ask us if you are not sure which product was used.
It’s easiest to seal gaps while they’re few and easy to reach. Over time, more work adds more holes and the job gets bigger.

The process
There is not much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we’ll take it from there. The job generally takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. For a village or hamlet like Hill Head, 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.
- We start with the survey or action list, checking the size and surfaces of every gap.
- We remove any old or unsuitable filler and clean the gap.
- Backing or fill is fitted where the product’s tested detail calls for it.
- Fire-rated or intumescent sealant is applied to the right depth and tooled.
- Finally, we list where we worked and what we used, for your records.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on

How do I get a quote for fire rated sealant in Hill Head?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. We agree the price before any work begins.
Do you carry out fire risk assessments?
No. That’s for a fire risk assessor, designer or building control. Our job is applying the sealant to their specification.
Do you work in flats, HMOs and commercial buildings?

Can you seal over the old sealant?
No. We remove every bit of old sealant first, so the new joint bonds to clean surfaces.
Signs you need fire rated sealant in Hill Head
Lots of unsealed gaps appear long after the building was completed. Electricians, plumbers and data installers drill through walls and ceilings and the hole they leave does not always get resealed.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Old fire sealant that has split or come away
- Open joints along the top of partitions
- Door frames with gaps between frame and wall
- New service routes left unsealed after building work
Letting a property close to Fareham station? Then fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- How long to leave it before use
- What product goes in the joint
Leave it or put it right?
Sealant isn’t 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. Older cottages and farmhouses around Hill Head can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference, and we will explain the quote if you ask.
What you get with us
- Trusted Arbo and Everbuild sealants
- 12-month guarantee on every job
- Over 20 years’ experience
- Neat joints and a tidy finish

Commercial buildings in Hill Head
If you run a hotel, guest house or holiday let in a coastal place like Hill Head, busy months put washrooms and kitchens under pressure, so it’s worth checking the sealant before the busiest weeks. 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.
Community buildings like Holy Rood Church are part of the picture too: older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Crofton Hammond Infant School, gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices.
