How the job changes by surface
Service penetrations
A copper pipe, a cable and a plastic pipe can all need different fire-stopping details. We follow the manufacturer’s tested detail for each and we flag any that need another system.
Plasterboard walls
Many fire-resisting walls in flats, offices and conversions are plasterboard. We use a product tested in that kind of wall for each gap size.
Fire rated sealant in Lane End
We do not assess buildings or decide what fire stopping is needed; your assessor, designer or building control sets that out. Our part is applying the specified sealant carefully, to the right depth and with the right backing. If you have standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap and sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Commercial work around a smaller place like Lane End normally means a pub, a shop, a school or small business units rather than office blocks. Each needs the same care with its sealant as any larger building.
Every job is covered by a 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Buckinghamshire.

What fire rated sealant looks like in Lane End
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 work to the specification you are given, installing the product to its tested details.
Letting a property close to High Wycombe station? Then new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant. For buildings such as Church of the Holy Trinity, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.

- Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out.

Your questions about fire rated sealant in Lane End
I let a flat near High Wycombe station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners, and several properties can be quoted together. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Is Lane End in your area for fire rated sealant?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Lane End is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Does someone need to be in?
That depends on where the joints are. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, and for outside work we’ll agree access with you when we book.
What does intumescent mean?
Intumescent describes a material that swells in heat. Intumescent sealants are a type of fire-rated sealant, and the choice depends on the gap.
Are you insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured for every job we do.
Can I use normal mastic around a pipe through a fire wall?
No. Ordinary silicone, caulk or foam is not tested as fire stopping. We cut it out and reseal with a fire-rated product.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, every time. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
What do you put in the joint?
It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
What we’re called out for in Lane End
Buildings are refitted and reconfigured over the years. A house turned into flats or an HMO, or an office split into smaller units, brings new walls, new service routes and new gaps.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Gaps left after a refit or conversion
- Gaps filled with a product that isn’t fire-rated
- Joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey
- Door frames with gaps between frame and wall
Schools such as Lane End Primary School are buildings too, and service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.

What else we do in Lane End
DIY versus a professional finish
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:
- Problems with the door itself rather than the gap around the frame
- Large holes that need a different fire-stopping system
- Sign-off of the building, which sits with building control or your assessor
If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
