What happens on the day
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The job generally takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building, including the tidy-up. For a village or hamlet like Hillhead, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- Access to each area is agreed so the work can run in order.
- We take out any damaged or unsuitable sealant.
- Dust and loose debris are cleaned from each gap.
- 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.

Can you match the sealant colour?

Can you give us a record of the work?

What fire rating will the seal have?
That isn’t something we state or certify. The requirement comes from your assessor, designer or building control, and we apply a product tested for it.
Should I try it myself first?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again.
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.

New sealant can’t fix everything, and we will tell you before we start. It will not solve:

- Walls or floors that weren’t built to resist fire
- Deciding what fire stopping a building needs
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think.

Do you need fire rated sealant in Hillhead?
Movement in the structure can open gaps too: cracked or debonded sealant leaves an open route through the wall. Knocks, maintenance and building work damage it further.
People normally contact us after spotting one of these:
- Gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls
- Gaps left after a refit or conversion
- Unsealed gaps around fire door frames
- Joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey
For buildings such as St George, older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking.

What the job involves on each surface
Masonry and concrete
Core-drilled and broken-out holes in concrete are often irregular. We check the gap size around the service to make sure it suits the product.
Flats and HMOs
Conversions normally leave a mix of old and new service holes. We seal the ones on your specification with a tested product.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Hillhead
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.
Fire rated sealant around Hillhead
For seaside hotels, guest houses and holiday lets around Hillhead, 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, which is often where open fire-stopping gaps are first noticed. We work to the specification you’re given, installing the product to its tested details.
