About our fire rated sealant in Niton
Where services or frames pass through a fire-resisting wall or floor, the gap around them needs a fire-rated seal. Each gap is sealed to the product maker’s tested detail for its size and substrate. If you are dealing with gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls and open joints along the top of partitions, we can help.
Somewhere as small as Niton, 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 guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

What affects the quote in Niton
The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- Which sealant suits the joint
- How easy the joints are to reach
- Any mould that needs treating
- The size of the job
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.
Helping us quote
You do not need to know the technical terms. Just tell us:
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- If someone has resealed it before
- How we’d reach the joints
- Where the job is, and your postcode
We do not publish a price list, because every job is different. Instead, we send you a clear quote for your job. To get started, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Commercial buildings in Niton
For seaside hotels, guest houses and holiday lets around Niton, busy months put washrooms and kitchens under pressure, so it’s worth checking the sealant before the busiest weeks. 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 work to the specification you’re given, installing the product to its tested details.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Niton Primary School, gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of St. John the Baptist, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.

Why deal with it now?
If an assessor has flagged gaps, it makes sense to close them before the next review. Having them sealed and recorded now means you can show the action was taken. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Niton, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
The cost depends on how much there is to do, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

The process
Once we are on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. For a village or hamlet like Niton, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We begin by agreeing the list of gaps from your assessor’s or designer’s requirements.
- Each gap is measured and its substrate and service noted.
- Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out and the faces cleaned.
- We fit backing where needed and apply the fire-rated sealant to depth.
- Every location is recorded with the product used for your files.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

What sealant work cannot fix
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:
- Sign-off of the building, which sits with building control or your assessor
- A wall that is not a fire-resisting element to begin with
- Fire doors that need new seals, closers or hardware
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Flats & HMOs
- Linear gaps
- Plasterboard & masonry
- Service penetrations
- Pipe & cable gaps
- Door frames
Keeping the joints in good condition
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Photograph sealed gaps before they’re covered up
- Keep general-purpose foam and caulk away from fire-stopping gaps
- Include hidden areas like risers in routine checks
- Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
Keep the record we give you with the building’s fire safety documents. It saves time at the next inspection or assessment.
Open gaps do not only matter in a fire: they also let noise, draughts and sometimes pests through. Sealing them early helps on every front.
Questions from Niton
Do you cover smaller places like Niton?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do you cover Niton for fire rated sealant?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Niton is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, it won’t last. It may look fine at first, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. The old sealant has to come out completely.
Can you match the sealant colour?
Most of the time, yes. We will tell you which colours the right product comes in.
Do you work in flats, HMOs and commercial buildings?
Yes, whether the building is a school, an office, flats or an HMO, and whether it’s in use or not. Tell us how the building is used and we’ll plan around it.
Can tenants book the work?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often happy for the work to be arranged.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before resealing.
Do you carry out fire risk assessments?
No. We work from the specification you give us, and apply each product to its tested details.
DIY versus a professional finish
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Niton
From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.
We also work for property managers and facilities teams. We can quote a run of properties together, and we are fully insured.
