How we handle fire rated sealant in North Charford
Deciding which gaps need fire stopping isn’t our role; that comes from your fire risk assessor, designer or building control. What we do is apply the right product to that specification, properly and neatly. If you are dealing with gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment and linear gaps at the head of walls, we can put it right, on linear gaps, plasterboard & masonry and service penetrations alike.
Work in a small place like North Charford is planned ahead, journey included, so it can be fitted around guests, customers or events where possible.
Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire.

Fire rated sealant around North Charford
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.
Community buildings like Church of St Mary are part of the picture too: gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.

DIY versus a professional finish
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
What we do, step by step
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that is where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. Somewhere as small as North Charford, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- Before starting, we go through the specification or action list with you.
- We measure every gap and note what it’s in and what passes through.
- Any non-fire-rated filler is removed.
- The specified fire-rated sealant goes in over any backing its detail requires.
- Every location is recorded with the product used.
Before we arrive
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Mention any tricky access
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Advice
How we quote for fire rated sealant
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We look at:
- When we can work, for business premises
- Access and height
- The product the joint needs
- The number and length of the joints
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will talk you through it.
Asking for a quote
To help us quote quickly, let us know:
- The problem you’ve noticed
- How we’d reach the joints
- The address or postcode of the job
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
It all starts with a short chat. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we will talk you through what we’d do. Whenever you’re ready, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Looking after it afterwards
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Flag any open gap you spot round a pipe or cable
- 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
- Do not paint over fire sealant until it has cured
Keep the record we give you with the building’s fire safety documents. It saves time at the next inspection or assessment.
When you plan work that goes through walls or ceilings, plan the fire stopping too. Catching it then saves a separate visit later.

What else we do in North Charford
Leave it or put it right?
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 is not suitable for sealant, we’ll tell you. In a small place like North Charford, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Doing several joints on one visit is generally more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We’ll give you a clear quote for the lot.

What we’re called out for in North Charford
If the sealant is too shallow, has the wrong backing or sits on a dusty surface, it isn’t installed as tested. We see plenty of fire stopping that was hurried, especially where it was squeezed in at the end of a project.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Fire seals that have cracked with movement
- Gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls
- Unsealed gaps around fire door frames
- New service routes left unsealed after building work
Managing a site like Hale Primary School? Then service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.

Your questions about fire rated sealant in North Charford
Is North Charford within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Is there a guarantee on fire rated sealant in North Charford?
All our work, in North Charford and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Does someone need to be in?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we have agreed the job, you do not need to watch us work.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old sealant, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. We remove it all first.
Will there be a smell?
Possibly a little. It fades as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
Where do you work from?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. Our applicators cover North Charford.
Should I try DIY first?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
