Fire rated sealant in Hollington, done properly
In flats, HMOs, offices and schools, fire stopping is often disturbed by later work. A new cable run or a replaced pipe can leave an open hole behind. Those are the gaps we close, using a tested fire-rated product. If you have standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap and cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant, we can put it right.
Work in a small place like Hollington is planned ahead, journey included, so it can be fitted around guests, customers or events where possible.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Advice
Do you need fire rated sealant in Hollington?
Lots of unsealed gaps appear long after the building was completed. New cables, pipes and data runs go through walls and ceilings and the hole they leave doesn’t always get resealed.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey
- New service routes left unsealed after building work
- Fire seals that have cracked with movement
- Unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall
Rented homes near Kintbury station change hands often, and any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.
Comparing quotes
- How hidden problems are handled
- Are they insured?
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
Leave it or put it right?
Doing it once, properly, beats doing it twice. If the details weren’t followed, the seal may need redoing when the building is next checked. In a small place like Hollington, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Ask every contractor to reseal any fire stopping they disturb
- Photograph sealed gaps before they’re covered up
- Don’t fill fire-stopping gaps with ordinary foam or silicone
- Ask which product was used before you paint
Look at the sealed gaps as part of your routine walk-rounds. Watch for cracking, gaps or seals that have been disturbed and get them seen to.
A flagged gap shouldn’t wait for the next assessment. Have it sealed, then keep the record so the item can be closed.

Fire rated sealant in Hollington: local notes
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 work to the specification you are given, installing the product to its tested details.
Managing a site like St Thomas' Church of England Infant School? Then fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of St Thomas, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.
