Fire rated sealant in Laverstoke
Ordinary silicone or decorators’ caulk in a fire-stopping gap is not a fire-rated seal. Anything unsuitable comes out first and the gap is resealed with a product tested for that use. Common call-outs are for new service routes left unsealed after building work and unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall, on linear gaps, service penetrations and pipe & cable gaps.
Work in a small place like Laverstoke is planned ahead, journey included, so it can be fitted around guests, clients or events where possible.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Laverstoke as everywhere else we work.

Why deal with it now?
A quick fill with any sealant to hand isn’t fire stopping. Fire-rated products are tested in set gap sizes, depths and substrates, which is why we match the product and the method to each gap. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Laverstoke, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs. Ask us for a quote and we will explain what it covers.

Laverstoke questions
Do you work for landlords with property near Whitchurch (Hampshire) station?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners, and several properties can be quoted together. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Laverstoke?
Yes, Laverstoke is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, we can. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Our base is Crawley. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Will we have a record of what was sealed?
Yes. We note each location and the product that went in.
Can I do it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Do you work in flats, HMOs and commercial buildings?
Yes, whether the building is a school, an office, flats or an HMO, and whether it’s in use or not. Tell us how the building is used and we’ll plan around it.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, every time. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Can I do it myself?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

What fire rated sealant looks like in Laverstoke
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.
If you look after a building such as Testbourne Community School, gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices. Community buildings like St Nicholas' Church are part of the picture too: gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there. For landlords with property near Whitchurch (Hampshire) station, any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.

Surface by surface
Plasterboard walls
We check that the board around the gap is sound. Crumbling edges are cleaned back before the sealant goes in.
Service penetrations
Service penetrations are where new gaps often appear. We clean out what’s there and reseal to the right depth.
What we do, step by step
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, just the space around the work. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are in most cases. Somewhere as small as Laverstoke, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- Before starting, we go through the specification or action list with you.
- Each gap is measured and its substrate and service noted.
- Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out and the faces cleaned.
- 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
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a quote
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and add pictures by email if you can.
Advice
Keeping the joints in good condition
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Allow for resealing whenever new services are run
- Look in service cupboards and ceiling voids from time to time
- Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
- Take pictures of fire stopping before ceilings or boxing go back
Any fire seal that’s cut or drilled needs resealing to its tested detail. New services through a sealed wall should include fire stopping in the plan.
A flagged gap shouldn’t wait for the next assessment. Get it sealed and recorded so you can show it was dealt with.
