Should I try it myself first?
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
How we handle fire rated sealant in Holme Green
We can work through a building room by room or floor by floor. That record is useful for your files and for whoever looks at the building next. If you have holes left by a change of layout and cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant, we can help, on plasterboard & masonry, service penetrations and pipe & cable gaps alike.
For holiday lets, converted business premises or a community building near Holme Green, washroom and kitchen sealant and any fire-rated joints need the same attention as anywhere.
A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Fire rated sealant around Holme Green
Workplaces and the common parts of blocks of flats in England need a fire risk assessment under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, 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. Holme Green has hotels and guest accommodation in and around it. Hotel work can be planned room by room, with out-of-hours working where needed.
Community buildings like St Sebastian's Church are part of the picture too: service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building. For landlords with property near Wokingham station, new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant.

Leave it or put it right?
Fire-rated sealants need more care than everyday sealant. How it’s installed changes how it performs, and we work to the product details every time. Around Holme Green, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

Questions from Holme Green
Do you work for hotels and guest houses in Holme Green?
Yes, we work for hotels as well as homes and businesses. A room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Wokingham station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear price.
Can you tell me how many minutes the seal will last?
Ratings and certificates aren’t something we issue. The performance comes from the product’s tested details and the specification from your assessor or designer, and we install to them.
Which products do you use?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, picked for each joint. We will tell you what we are using and why.
Are you insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and we’ve been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
Will you assess my building’s fire safety?
No. We follow the requirements from your assessor, designer or building control, and apply each product to its tested details.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We’re an ARBOMaster approved applicator, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.
Is intumescent sealant the same as fire-rated sealant?
Fire-rated is the broad term for sealants tested for fire stopping. Intumescent ones swell in heat, and they’re one of the options. We use whichever the specification and tested details call for.
Do you need fire rated sealant in Holme Green?
Sometimes the wrong product was used from the start: general-purpose foam, everyday silicone or caulk where a fire-rated seal was needed. It looks sealed, but it isn’t fire-rated.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Open joints along the top of partitions
- Gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls
- Sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list
- Damaged fire sealant left by other trades
Schools such as Floreat Montague Park Primary School are buildings too, and fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.
Questions to ask before booking
- What happens if the job turns out different
- Is VAT in the price?
- Whether you can choose the colour
- What guarantee comes with the work
Looking after it afterwards
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Look in service cupboards and ceiling voids from time to time
- Keep general-purpose foam and caulk away from fire-stopping gaps
- File the fire-stopping record where your assessor can find it
- Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
Follow the cure time we give you before decorating over the sealant. Not every fire-rated sealant takes paint.
Open gaps don’t only matter in a fire: noise, draughts and even pests can come through too. Dealing with them early helps with all of these.
