Fire-rated sealant in Nob's Crook, Hampshire
We cover Nob's Crook for intumescent and fire-rated sealant around gaps, frames and service penetrations. Old material cut out, joints cleaned and sealed neatly and every job guaranteed for a year.
- Gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs
- New service routes left unsealed after building work
- Door frames with gaps between frame and wall
How to look after the new joints
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep pictures of seals that will be hidden
- Plan fire stopping into any work that goes through walls or floors
- Tell trades working in the building that fire seals must be put back
- Store the list of sealed gaps with your building paperwork
Let contractors know where fire stopping has been done, and ask them to reseal anything they cut through. A lot of damaged fire stopping comes from later work.
Small gaps around services are simple to deal with while there are only a few. Over time, more work adds more holes and the list grows.
Fire rated sealant in Nob's Crook
Ordinary silicone or decorators’ caulk in a fire-stopping gap isn’t a fire-rated seal. Anything unsuitable comes out first and reseal with a fire-rated product tested for that kind of gap. If you have holes left by a change of layout and gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
In a village or hamlet like Nob's Crook, commercial work is more likely to be a pub, a farm shop, holiday lets or a village hall than an office block. They all have washrooms, kitchens and service openings that need the right sealant.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire.

Why deal with it now?
An open gap in a fire-resisting wall is a route for smoke and fire. Sealing it properly restores what the wall was there to do, and the sealing itself is often a contained piece of work. In a small place like Nob's Crook, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You’ll know the price before we begin.

Different surfaces, different methods
Linear gaps
A linear joint may need to allow for movement as well as fire. The product and depth are chosen to suit both, following the tested detail.
Flats and HMOs
Working in occupied flats needs some planning. Access to flats and common areas is agreed in advance.
What affects the cost of fire rated sealant
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- The number and length of the joints
- How many areas need sealing
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The old material and how stubborn it is
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
Helping us quote
What to tell us when you ask for a quote:
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- The type of property
- Roughly how big the job is
- A few pictures by email, if you can
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is, and email pictures if that is easy.
What we do, step by step
On the day, we look over the joints with you first. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. The work normally takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. In a small place like Nob's Crook, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- 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.
- 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.
- Finally, we list where we worked and what we used, for your records.
How to prepare
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Related advice
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies keeps a property looking cared for.
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. We can quote for more than one property at once.
