How we handle fire rated sealant in Lambourn Woodlands
Until it’s heated, intumescent sealant behaves like an ordinary sealant; in a fire it expands into the joint. Which product suits a gap depends on its width, the materials either side and what runs through it. We work on service penetrations, plasterboard & masonry and flats & HMOs, and common reasons people get in touch are gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls and new service routes left unsealed after building work.
If you have holiday lets, a converted barn used for business or a community building near Lambourn Woodlands, washroom and kitchen sealant and any fire-rated joints need the same attention as anywhere.
Every job is covered by our 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in West Berkshire.

Surface by surface
Door frames
A door can only do its job if the gap behind its frame is sealed too. We fill it with a fire-rated product suited to the materials either side.
Masonry and concrete
Preparation counts on brick, block and concrete. The gap is cleaned and backed where required before the sealant goes in.
The process
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and tell you how long to leave it. The visit itself normally takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building, depending on the size of the job. In a small place like Lambourn Woodlands, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- Before starting, we go through the specification or action list with you.
- We measure every gap and note what it’s in and what passes through.
- Any non-fire-rated filler is removed.
- The specified fire-rated sealant goes in over any backing its detail requires.
- Every location is recorded with the product used for your files.
How to prepare
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Tell us about any water getting in

What affects the quote in Lambourn Woodlands
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We take into account:
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- When we can work, for business premises
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we will explain what it covers.
Asking for a quote
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Try to tell us:
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- Where the property is
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and email photos if that’s easy.
When to call us in Lambourn Woodlands
Over time, buildings change layout and use. Conversions to flats and HMOs, and office refits, create new walls and new routes for services, with gaps to match.
Look out for these signs:
- Open holes round services passing through fire walls
- Sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list
- Cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant
- Fire stopping disturbed by later work
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 the cure time is

Your questions about fire rated sealant in Lambourn Woodlands
Is Lambourn Woodlands within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can you do fire rated sealant in Lambourn Woodlands?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Lambourn Woodlands is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
How long does fire rated sealant take?
Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are, including the preparation. We’ll confirm how long when we quote.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, and it traps any mould or water underneath. It all has to come out first.
Can you give us a record of the work?
Yes. Every gap we seal is listed with the product used, so you have it on file.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
We help you choose a colour that suits. The product needed can limit the range.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
What fire rated sealant looks like in Lambourn Woodlands
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.
Rented homes near Hungerford station change hands often, and any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.
