Different surfaces, different methods
Flats and HMOs
Flats and HMOs rely on fire separation between homes and the common parts. We work through the gaps on your assessment, flat by flat if needed.
Service penetrations
Different services need different details: metal pipes, cables and plastic pipes aren’t treated the same. Each one is sealed to the product’s tested detail and we flag any that need another system.
Mislingford questions
Will you come out to Mislingford?
Yes, Mislingford is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Botley station?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders, and several properties can go on one quote. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Can I do it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Do the sealants smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, but it fades. Opening a window helps.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Doing several areas at once is usually more efficient.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
Will it make a mess?
Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
Is intumescent sealant the same as fire-rated sealant?
An intumescent sealant expands when it gets hot, helping close the gap. Intumescent sealants are one kind of fire-rated sealant; the right one depends on the gap and what passes through it.
Should I try it myself first?
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

Aftercare tips
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Check whether a sealant can be painted before decorating over it
- Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
- Keep photos of seals that will be hidden
- Plan fire stopping into any work that goes through walls or floors
File the record of locations and products with your fire safety paperwork. It helps whoever checks the building next.
A gap left open in a fire-resisting wall or floor lets smoke spread in ways the building wasn’t designed for. Sealing it early is a simple step to take.
How it works
Once we are on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. In a small place like Mislingford, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First we work through your list or survey, measuring each gap and checking what it’s formed in.
- Old or unsuitable sealant is cut out and the gap cleaned.
- Where the tested detail needs backing or fill, we fit it.
- Fire-rated or intumescent sealant is applied to the right depth and tooled.
- Finally, we list where we worked and what we used, for your records.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice
Why it’s worth doing now in Mislingford
For some gaps, sealant isn’t the right answer and another system is needed. Big openings, bundles of cables and plastic pipes may need batts, collars or wraps instead. If a gap isn’t suitable for sealant, we will tell you. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Mislingford, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Combining jobs into one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.

What sealant work can’t fix
In fairness, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:

Workplaces and buildings in Mislingford
Workplaces and the common parts of blocks of flats in England need a fire risk assessment under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, 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.
If you let a flat or house near Botley station, new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant. If you look after a building such as Swanmore College of Technology, fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.
