Fire rated sealant in Hungerford, done properly
Until it’s heated, intumescent sealant behaves like an ordinary sealant; then it swells to help close the gap. The right product depends on the gap size, the substrate and what passes through, so we work to the manufacturer’s details. If you have open gaps behind door architraves and sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list, we can help, on pipe & cable gaps, door frames and plasterboard & masonry alike.
Work in a small place like Hungerford is planned ahead, journey included, so the job can fit around bookings, guests or opening times where possible.
Big or small, you get the same 12-month guarantee in Hungerford and across Hampshire.

What sealant work can’t fix
We’d rather tell you now than do work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Fire risk assessments, which need a qualified assessor
- Problems with the door itself rather than the gap around the frame
- Construction that does not provide fire resistance on its own
If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Should I try it myself first?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

Questions from Hungerford
Is Hungerford in your area for fire rated sealant?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Hungerford is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Will you come out to Hungerford?
Yes, Hungerford is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do you provide details of the products used?
Yes. Locations and products are written up when we finish. If you need pictures or a set layout, ask when you get a quote.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, and we never do. It may look fine at first, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. The old sealant has to come out completely.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator, and we’re fully insured.
Do you do fire sealant around door frames?
Yes, where the gap suits a sealant detail. Our work is the gap around the frame and we will tell you if we spot problems with the door.
What does intumescent mean?
An intumescent material expands when it’s heated. Intumescent sealants are a type of fire-rated sealant and which one is used depends on the job.
Commercial buildings in Hungerford
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.
Managing a site like Hyde Church of England Primary School? Then fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.

What we’re called out for in Hungerford
Gaps also open up as buildings move: a seal that cracks or pulls away leaves a path for smoke. Knocks, maintenance and building work damage it further.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey
- Fire seals that have cracked with movement
- Gaps filled with a product that is not fire-rated
- Holes left by a change of layout
For buildings such as Church of the Holy Ascension, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.
What your quote should include
- What guarantee comes with the work
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- How long to leave it before use
- Are they insured?

How it works
Good joint work is mostly preparation, and we don’t rush it. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. All told, the work takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. Somewhere as small as Hungerford, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- Access to each area is agreed so the work can run in order.
- Old, damaged or unsuitable sealant is removed.
- Dust and loose debris are cleaned from each gap.
- The fire-rated or intumescent sealant is applied and tooled to the tested detail.
- Locations and products are written up and any gaps unsuitable for sealant are flagged.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Clear the area around the work
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

Advice
Surface by surface
Masonry and concrete
Core-drilled and broken-out holes in concrete are often irregular. We measure the gap at its widest point against the product’s tested range.
Service penetrations
New gaps tend to show up where services have been added. Old or unsuitable filler comes out before the right sealant goes in.
Why it’s worth doing now in Hungerford
Items left open on a fire risk assessment tend to come back at the next review. Getting them done and written up means you can show the action was taken. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Hungerford, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Doing several joints on one visit is generally more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.
