What the job involves on each surface
Flats and HMOs
Converted houses often have gaps around old and new services. We seal the ones on your specification with a tested product.
Plasterboard walls
Service holes in plasterboard are often rough and oversized. Where a hole is bigger than the sealant’s tested range, it needs another approach and we will flag it.
How we handle fire rated sealant in Mayford
Fire-rated sealant closes the gaps around pipes, cables and frames where they pass through a fire-resisting wall or floor. Each gap is sealed to the product maker’s tested detail for its size and substrate, and we can record what went where. We work on plasterboard & masonry, service penetrations and flats & HMOs, and people most often call us about new service routes left unsealed after building work and gaps filled with a product that isn’t fire-rated.
For holiday lets, converted business premises or a community building near Mayford, washroom and kitchen sealant and any fire-rated joints need the same attention as anywhere.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Mayford
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
When it is not the sealant
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- A wall that is not a fire-resisting element to begin with
- Fire doors that need new seals, closers or hardware
- Fire risk assessments, which need a qualified assessor
If you are not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
What we seal
- Service penetrations
- Linear gaps
- Door frames
- Flats & HMOs
- Plasterboard & masonry
- Pipe & cable gaps
Why deal with it now?
Paying for fire stopping that has to be redone is a false economy. Work that doesn’t follow the tested detail may have to come out again when the building is next checked. In a small place like Mayford, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Combining jobs into one visit is generally more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.
Why us?
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
- Over 20 years’ experience

- 12-month guarantee on every job
What affects the cost of fire rated sealant
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Which sealant suits the joint
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are unsure, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.
What to tell us for a quote
What to tell us when you ask for a quote:
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- The problem you’ve noticed
- How we’d reach the joints
- If someone has resealed it before
It all starts with a short chat. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is. Whenever you’re ready, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
How it works
There’s no need to move everything out, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are for a typical job. In a small place like Mayford, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We go through the gaps on your list or survey and check each one’s size and substrate.
- Anything that is not fit for the job comes out, and the gap is cleaned.
- Backing or fill is fitted where the product’s tested detail calls for it.
- Fire-rated or intumescent sealant is applied to the right depth and tooled.
- Locations and products are noted so you have them on file.
How to prepare
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

FAQs for Mayford

Is it messy?
Not at all. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
What’s the difference between intumescent and fire-rated sealant?
Fire-rated sealant covers any sealant tested for use in fire stopping. Intumescent ones swell in heat, and they’re one of the options. The specification and the tested detail decide which is used.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, and it traps any mould or water underneath. We remove it all first.
Can I do it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. If it does not work out, we can redo it.
Does someone need to be in?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you do not need to watch us work.

Fire rated sealant in Mayford: 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.
Community buildings like St Mark's 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 Worplesdon station, any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product. Schools such as Westfield Primary School are buildings too, and fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.

Keeping the joints in good condition
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Include hidden areas like risers in routine checks
- Never patch a fire seal with standard sealant
- Photograph sealed gaps before they’re covered up
- Include fire stopping when you schedule refits
Let contractors know where fire stopping has been done, and make sure anything they disturb is resealed with a suitable product. Later work is a common cause of damaged fire stopping.
A flagged gap shouldn’t wait for the next assessment. Get it sealed and recorded so you can show it was dealt with.
