Signs you need fire rated sealant in Itchen Stoke
Sometimes the wrong product was used from the start: general-purpose foam, everyday silicone or caulk in a place that needed a tested fire seal. It looks sealed, but it is not fire-rated.
People usually contact us after spotting something like this:
- Gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls
- Gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs
- Joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey
- Door frames with gaps between frame and wall
Schools such as Perins School are buildings too, and gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices.

Fire rated sealant in Itchen Stoke, done properly
We do not assess buildings or decide what fire stopping is needed; your assessor, designer or building control sets that out. What we do is apply the right product to that specification, properly and neatly. If you have cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant and gaps left after a refit or conversion, we can help.
For holiday lets, converted business premises or a community building near Itchen Stoke, the washrooms, kitchens and any fire-rated joints need the same care as a big site.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Is Itchen Stoke within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. 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.
Will we have a record of what was sealed?
Yes. We record the locations we have sealed and the products used to keep with your fire safety documents.

What fire rated sealant looks like in Itchen Stoke
Workplaces and the common parts of blocks of flats in England need a fire risk assessment under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, and gaps around services are often picked up there. We work to the specification you are given, installing the product to its tested details.
Community buildings like St Mary's Church are part of the picture too: older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking.

What affects the quote in Itchen Stoke
Every job gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How much there is to do
- Access and height
- The product the joint needs
- How many areas need sealing
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we ask about the job first.
What to tell us for a quote
To help us quote quickly, let us know:
- A few photos by email, if you can
- If someone has resealed it before
- The type of property
- How we’d reach the joints
We quote each job on its own, so the first step is telling us about yours. Simply call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and describe the job, and photos are welcome.
Surface by surface
Masonry and concrete
Masonry is dusty and porous, so preparation matters. We brush and vacuum the gap and use backing where the detail needs it.
Plasterboard walls
Holes in plasterboard are often cut roughly for services. Gaps that are too big for sealant alone need a different detail.
What we can’t put right
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:
- Walls or floors that weren’t built to resist fire
- Fire risk assessments, which need a qualified assessor
- Openings too large for sealant, which need batts, boards or another system
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we seal
- Flats & HMOs
- Service penetrations

Looking after it afterwards
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Ask which product was used before you paint
- Include fire stopping when you schedule refits
- Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
- Store the list of sealed gaps with your building paperwork
Let contractors know where fire stopping has been done, and make sure anything they disturb is resealed with a suitable product. Later work is a common cause of damaged fire stopping.
A flagged gap shouldn’t wait for the next assessment. Get it sealed and recorded so you can show it was dealt with.
What happens on the day
You do not need to clear the whole room or building before we come, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the job takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building in most cases. Somewhere as small as Itchen Stoke, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We begin by agreeing the list of gaps from your assessor’s or designer’s requirements.
- Each gap is measured and its substrate and service noted.
- Any non-fire-rated filler is removed.
- We fit backing where needed and apply the fire-rated sealant to depth.
- Every location is recorded with the product used for your records.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any water getting in
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
