Fire rated sealant in Horton-cum-Studley, done properly
Ordinary silicone or decorators’ caulk in a fire-stopping gap is not a fire-rated seal. We cut out the wrong material and the gap is resealed with a product tested for that use. If you’re dealing with old fire sealant that has split or come away and gaps left after a refit or conversion, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
For holiday lets, converted business premises or a community building near Horton-cum-Studley, the washrooms, kitchens and any fire-rated joints need the same care as a big site.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

How to look after the new joints
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Report cracked or damaged seals as soon as you notice them
- Ask which product was used before you paint
- Don’t fill fire-stopping gaps with ordinary foam or silicone
- Tell trades working in the building that fire seals must be put back
File the record of locations and products with your fire safety paperwork. It saves time at the next inspection or assessment.
An open gap is not only a fire issue: noise, draughts and even pests can come through too. Dealing with them early helps with all of these.

Asking for a quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- Where the property is
- Roughly how big the job is
- The type of property
- If someone has resealed it before
Call for a quick quote, or email us if that is easier. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we will explain what’s involved.
How it works
We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. Somewhere like Horton-cum-Studley needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. 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.
- Old or unsuitable sealant is cut out and the gap cleaned.
- Where the tested detail needs backing or fill, we fit it.
- We apply the fire-rated or intumescent sealant to the specified depth and tool it.
- Finally, we list where we worked and what we used, for your records.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
Getting a quote
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is, and add pictures by email if you can.
Related advice
Why deal with it now?
Waiting for the next refit can leave a gap open for years. On its own, sealing it now is a small job that doesn’t depend on other work. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Horton-cum-Studley, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part, and we will explain the quote if you ask.

Different surfaces, different methods
Flats and HMOs
In flats and HMOs, the walls and floors between homes and common areas need sealing where services pass through. We seal the gaps your assessor has identified, flat by flat if needed.
Plasterboard walls
Service holes in plasterboard are often rough and oversized. Gaps that are too big for sealant alone need a different detail and we’ll flag it.
Common questions in Horton-cum-Studley
Do you cover Horton-cum-Studley for fire rated sealant?
Yes, Horton-cum-Studley is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Horton-cum-Studley?
Yes, Horton-cum-Studley is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do the sealants smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, which fades as it sets. Ventilation helps.
What information do you need?
Tell us what needs doing and where, with pictures by email if possible. If we need more, we’ll ask.
How long does the job take?
A typical job takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. We will confirm how long when we quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Just list everything you need.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, and it traps any mould or water underneath. We remove it all first.
When something else is needed
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:
- Fire doors that need new seals, closers or hardware
- Large holes that need a different fire-stopping system
- Fire risk assessments, which need a qualified assessor
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Workplaces and buildings in Horton-cum-Studley
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 apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details.
If you let a flat or house near Islip station, fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through.
