Fire rated sealant in Little Horwood, done properly
Later work by other trades often breaks through fire stopping, especially in flats, HMOs, offices and schools. A new cable run or a replaced pipe can leave an open hole behind. Those are the gaps we close, using a tested fire-rated product. Common call-outs are for linear gaps at the head of walls and old fire sealant that has split or come away, across door frames, flats & HMOs and plasterboard & masonry.
For a small place like Little Horwood, the journey and timings are agreed in advance, so the job can fit around bookings, guests or opening times where possible.

Common problems we fix in Little Horwood
Door frames are a common weak spot. The gap between the frame and the wall is hidden behind the architrave, so it can be left open when a door is replaced.
People normally contact us when they notice one of these:
- Old fire sealant that has split or come away
- Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
- Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
- Open joints along the top of partitions
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of St Nicholas, older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking.

Landlord and commercial work in Little Horwood
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. Several properties can go on one quote.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
How the visit works
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The work itself takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. Somewhere like Little Horwood needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- Access to each area is agreed so the work can run in order.
- We take out any damaged or unsuitable sealant.
- Dust and loose debris are cleaned from each gap.
- We apply and tool the sealant to the product’s tested detail.
- Locations and products are written up and any gaps unsuitable for sealant are flagged.
Preparing for the visit
- Move anything stored near the joints
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Mention any parking rules near the property

Advice
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Store the list of sealed gaps with your building paperwork
- Include hidden areas like risers in routine checks
- Report cracked or damaged seals as soon as you notice them
- Ask which product was used before you paint
Any fire seal that is cut or drilled needs resealing to its tested detail. If you need new services through a sealed wall, plan the fire stopping as part of the job.
Open gaps don’t only matter in a fire: they also let noise, draughts and sometimes pests through. Sealing them early helps on every front.
Why act early in Little Horwood
Items left open on a fire risk assessment tend to come back at the next review. Getting them done and written up means you can show the action was taken. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Little Horwood, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.

Fire rated sealant in Little Horwood: local notes
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’re given, installing the product to its tested details.
If you look after a building such as Sir Thomas Fremantle School, service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.

Different surfaces, different methods
Door frames
The gap between a door frame and the wall around it needs sealing as well as the door itself. We fill it with a fire-rated product suited to the materials either side.
Flats and HMOs
Conversions normally leave a mix of old and new service holes. We seal the ones on your specification with a tested product and record where they are.
Common questions in Little Horwood
Can you do fire rated sealant in Little Horwood?
Yes, Little Horwood is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear price.
Will you come out to Little Horwood?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No, because it fails. We remove every bit of old sealant first.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Our base is in Crawley, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
How long does fire rated sealant take?
That depends on how much there is to do, but as a guide it takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. We will give you a better idea when we quote.
Do I have to be there?
It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, and for outside work we’ll agree access with you when we book.
Do you certify the fire stopping?
We do not give ratings or certificates for our work. Your specification sets the requirement, and we fit a product whose tested details meet it, recording the locations and products.
