Fire rated sealant in Lymore, done properly
Ordinary silicone or decorators’ caulk in a fire-stopping gap isn’t a fire-rated seal. We cut out the wrong material and the gap is resealed with a product tested for that use. If you have open holes round services passing through fire walls and ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed, we can help, on flats & HMOs, door frames and service penetrations alike.
For a small place like Lymore, the journey and timings are agreed in advance, so the job can fit around bookings, guests or opening times where possible.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

What do you need from me for a quote?

Is intumescent sealant the same as fire-rated sealant?
An intumescent sealant expands when it gets hot. It’s one type of fire-rated sealant; the right one depends on the gap and what passes through it.
What happens on the day
There is not much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The work itself takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access, including the tidy-up. In a small place like Lymore, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We begin by agreeing the list of gaps from your assessor’s or designer’s requirements.
- We measure every gap and note what it’s in and what passes through.
- Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out.
- The specified fire-rated sealant goes in over any backing its detail requires.
- We hand over a list of locations and products.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

Signs you need fire rated sealant in Lymore
Sometimes the wrong product was used from the start: ordinary expanding foam, standard silicone or decorators’ caulk in a place that needed a tested fire seal. It may look fine, but it is not a fire-rated seal.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Fire seals that have cracked with movement
- Open holes round services passing through fire walls
- Linear gaps at the head of walls
- Ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed
Managing a site like Milford-on-Sea Church of England Primary School? Then service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.

Fire rated sealant around Lymore
If you run a hotel, guest house or holiday let in a coastal place like Lymore, busy months put washrooms and kitchens under pressure, so it’s worth checking the sealant before the busiest weeks. 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 apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details.
For landlords with property near Lymington Town station, any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of All Saints, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.

Aftercare tips
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks
- Allow for resealing whenever new services are run
- Report cracked or damaged seals as soon as you notice them
- Photograph sealed gaps before they’re covered up
File the record of locations and products with your fire safety paperwork. It helps whoever checks the building next.
Any job that breaks through a wall or ceiling should include resealing. Catching it then saves a separate visit later.
Different surfaces, different methods
Door frames
A door can only do its job if the gap behind its frame is sealed too. We fill it with a fire-rated product suited to the materials either side.
Linear gaps
Long, narrow gaps appear where walls meet slabs and ceilings. They’re sealed with a fire-rated sealant over backing where the detail calls for it.
How we quote for fire rated sealant
Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The size of the job
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Mould in or behind the old joints
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we will explain what it covers.
What we need to know
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Please mention:
- The type of property
- Whether it has been sealed before
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
If you’re in Lymore and need fire rated sealant, call 0345 464 0079 or email us. Tell us what the problem is and where, and you’ll get a clear quote before we start.
Should I try it myself first?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
