Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Milton Hill
Bigger jobs can be worked through in stages, flat by flat or floor by floor, with each location and product recorded. It gives you a list to keep with the building’s fire safety documents. Common call-outs are for door frames with gaps between frame and wall and gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs, across service penetrations, plasterboard & masonry and linear gaps.
Somewhere as small as Milton Hill, commercial jobs tend to be pubs, holiday lets, farm buildings or halls rather than offices. They all have washrooms, kitchens and service openings that need the right sealant.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once the job is done.

Why act early in Milton Hill
Leaving a gap until a refurbishment comes round can mean years with it open. Sealing the gap now is a contained job on its own and needn’t wait for anything else. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Milton Hill, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.
What you get with us
- Neat joints and a tidy finish
- ARBOMaster approved applicator
- We’re fully insured
- Old sealant always removed completely

For landlords and businesses
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
We work for landlords and agents as well as householders. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order.
When to call us in Milton Hill
Sealant applied too thin, without the backing its detail needs, or onto dust won’t perform as it was tested. Rushed fire stopping is common particularly when it was the last job before handover.
The problems people normally mention when they call are:
- Open holes round services passing through fire walls
- Gaps filled with a product that isn’t fire-rated
- Gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment
- Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
Letting a property close to Didcot Parkway station? Then fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through.

Workplaces and buildings in Milton Hill
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, which is often where open fire-stopping gaps are first noticed. We apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details. Milton Hill has hotels and guest accommodation in and around it. Hotel work can be planned room by room, with out-of-hours working where needed.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as St Blaise CofE Primary School, service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment. For buildings such as Church of St Blaise, older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking.

What affects the cost of fire rated sealant

- The number and length of the joints
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The number of rooms or windows
We don’t show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.
Asking for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- If someone has resealed it before
- The rough size of the job
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Any access issues, like height or stairs

How it works
All our tools and materials come with us in the van. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. For a village or hamlet like Milton Hill, the journey is planned in advance: 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.
- We start with the survey or action list, checking the size and surfaces of every gap.
- Anything that isn’t fit for the job comes out, and the gap is cleaned.
- Where the tested detail needs backing or fill, we fit it.
- We apply the fire-rated or intumescent sealant to the specified depth and tool it.
- Finally, we list where we worked and what we used, for your records.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

Other services in Milton Hill
Can I do it myself?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Milton Hill questions
Do you work for hotels and guest houses in Milton Hill?
Yes. Hotel and guest-house work is part of what we do. Jobs can be programmed room by room, with out-of-hours working possible to arrange.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Didcot Parkway station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Our base is in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We’re approved under the ARBOMaster scheme.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, and we never do. It may look fine at first, but the new bead soon lifts. The old sealant has to come out completely.
Does someone need to be in?
It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
Do you have insurance?
Yes, we’re fully insured for domestic and commercial work.
When something else is needed
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- Problems with the door itself rather than the gap around the frame
- Issuing a fire rating or certificate for a building
- Deciding what fire stopping a building needs
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
