Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Lodsworth
Filling a fire-stopping gap with standard silicone or caulk does not make it fire-rated. Anything unsuitable comes out first and reseal with a fire-rated product tested for that kind of gap. We work on plasterboard & masonry, linear gaps and door frames, and the jobs we see most are open holes round services passing through fire walls and fire stopping disturbed by later work.
In a village or hamlet like Lodsworth, commercial work is more likely to be a pub, a farm shop, holiday lets or a village hall than an office block. They all have washrooms, kitchens and service openings that need the right sealant.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Lodsworth and across West Sussex.

Workplaces and buildings in Lodsworth

Community buildings like The Parish Church of St Peter are part of the picture too: gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.

Do you offer different sealant colours?

How to look after the new joints
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Plan fire stopping into any work that goes through walls or floors
- Do not fill fire-stopping gaps with ordinary foam or silicone
- Do not paint over fire sealant until it has cured
- Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
Leave the sealant to cure fully before painting near it. Not every fire-rated sealant takes paint, so ask us which we used.
If a fire risk assessment has flagged a gap, do not leave it for the next one. Get it sealed and recorded so the item can be closed.
When it is not the sealant
In fairness, some problems need a different trade:
- Doors that aren’t fire doors in the first place
- Assessing a building’s fire safety
- Construction that doesn’t provide fire resistance on its own
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we are called out for in Lodsworth
Much fire stopping is hidden: in ceiling voids, service risers and behind boxing. Because nobody sees it, gaps go unnoticed until an assessor or surveyor looks.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Old fire sealant that has split or come away
- Open gaps behind door architraves
- Sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list
- Ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed
In and around Lodsworth, as anywhere, good fire rated sealant starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
Before you book anyone
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- Whether VAT is included
- How long to leave it before use
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant

What else we do in Lodsworth
What we do, step by step
At the end, we look at the finished work together. The work normally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are, depending on the size of the job. Somewhere like Lodsworth needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First we work through your list or survey, measuring each gap and checking what it’s formed in.
- We remove any old or unsuitable filler and clean the gap.
- Backing or fill is fitted where the product’s tested detail calls for it.
- The sealant goes in to the depth its detail sets, then it’s tooled off.
- We record the locations and products used for your records.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Mention any tricky access

Why act early in Lodsworth
A quick fill with any sealant to hand isn’t fire stopping. A fire-rated product only performs as tested when it’s installed to its tested detail, which is why we match the product and the method to each gap. Older cottages and farmhouses around Lodsworth can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
We do not show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will talk you through it.
