What happens on the day
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so you don’t need to buy or prepare anything. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. For a village or hamlet like Letcombe Regis, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We start with the survey or action list, checking the size and surfaces of every gap.
- We remove any old or unsuitable filler and clean the gap.
- We put in whatever backing or fill the product detail specifies.
- We apply the fire-rated or intumescent sealant to the specified depth and tool it.
- We record the locations and products used for your records.
Preparing for the visit

Advice
Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Letcombe Regis
In flats, HMOs, offices and schools, fire stopping is often disturbed by later work. One new cable or pipe can leave a gap that nobody goes back to seal. We seal them with a product tested for that kind of gap. Typical jobs include gaps left after a refit or conversion and fire seals that have cracked with movement, on linear gaps, pipe & cable gaps and door frames.
In a village or hamlet like Letcombe Regis, commercial work is more likely to be a pub, a farm shop, holiday lets or a village hall than an office block. Each still needs sound sealant in its washrooms and kitchens, and fire-rated joints where services pass through walls.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

What happens if it’s left?
Waiting for the next refit can leave a gap open for years. Sealing the gap now is a contained job on its own. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Letcombe Regis, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote.

What the job involves on each surface
Linear gaps
Some linear gaps have to cope with movement as well as fire. We choose a product and depth that suit the gap and the movement.
Plasterboard walls
We check that the board around the gap is sound. Crumbling edges are cleaned back before the sealant goes in.
What fire rated sealant looks like in Letcombe Regis
There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Letcombe Regis. For hotels, a room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on. 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.
Schools such as St Nicholas CofE Primary School are buildings too, and service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment. For buildings such as Church of St Andrew, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks
- Do not fill fire-stopping gaps with ordinary foam or silicone
- Keep pictures of seals that will be hidden
- Allow for resealing whenever new services are run
Leave the sealant to cure fully before painting near it. Some fire-rated sealants can be painted and some can’t and we will tell you which one you have.
When you plan work that goes through walls or ceilings, plan the fire stopping too. Doing it at the time avoids leaving gaps behind.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Landlords and agents in Letcombe Regis can book us as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.

Will you come out to Letcombe Regis?

What information do you need?
Only a few details: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. After that, simply phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
How long does the job take?
Typically it takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. Bigger jobs take longer, and we will tell you how long to expect.
What sealant do you use?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what we are using.
Is standard sealant good enough for a fire gap?
No. Standard sealants aren’t made or tested to stop fire. If it’s been used, we remove it and use the right product.
Do the sealants smell?
Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
We help you choose a colour that suits. The product needed can limit the range.
