Common questions in North Fareham
Do you work for landlords with property near Fareham station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like North Fareham?
Yes. North Fareham is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, and it traps any mould or water underneath. We remove it all first.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
In most cases you can choose. We will tell you which colours the right product comes in and agree one before we start.
Do I need to be at home?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. Indoors, that normally means someone at home.
Will you assess my building’s fire safety?
No, we don’t assess buildings. Once you have a specification or action list from your assessor or designer, we can quote for the fire-rated sealant items.
Is it worth trying 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.
Where are you based?
Our base is in Crawley, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
How the visit works
A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and clear up. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. Somewhere as small as North Fareham, 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.
- Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out.
- We fit backing where needed and apply the fire-rated sealant to depth.
- We hand over a list of locations and products.
Getting ready for the visit
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Mention any tricky access

How we quote for fire rated sealant
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The number of rooms or windows
- The product the joint needs
- How much there is to do
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.
What we need to know
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- If someone has resealed it before
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and email pictures if that is easy.
Aftercare tips
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Take photos of fire stopping before ceilings or boxing go back
- Report cracked or damaged seals as soon as you notice them
- Plan fire stopping into any work that goes through walls or floors
- Store the list of sealed gaps with your building paperwork
Include fire stopping in your regular building checks. Look for cracks, gaps or sealant that has been cut or pulled out and have them put right.
Leave a fire-stopping gap open and smoke can move through the building much more easily. Closing it is generally a straightforward job.
What the job involves on each surface
Door frames
Frame gaps are generally hidden behind the architrave. We seal any open gap to the product’s tested details.
Service penetrations
Pipes, cables and ducts passing through fire-resisting walls and floors each leave a gap. We seal it with a product tested for that service and gap size.
What sealant work cannot fix
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Certifying a building or signing off its fire safety
- A wall that is not a fire-resisting element to begin with
- Deciding what fire stopping a building needs
If you are not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we seal
- Plasterboard & masonry
- Linear gaps
- Flats & HMOs
- Pipe & cable gaps
- Service penetrations
- Door frames
Do you need fire rated sealant in North Fareham?
Many open fire-stopping gaps are made after the building is finished. Electricians, plumbers and data installers drill through walls and ceilings and the hole they leave doesn’t always get resealed.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs
- Unsealed gaps around fire door frames
- Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
- Joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey
Community buildings like Parish Church of St Peter and St Paul are part of the picture too: service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.

Commercial buildings in North Fareham
If you run a hotel, guest house or holiday let in a coastal place like North Fareham, heavy use in the busy months is hard on washroom and kitchen sealant, and any building work there should leave fire-rated joints made good. 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, and gaps around services are often picked up there. We apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details.
Schools such as Harrison Primary School are buildings too, and service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment. Letting a property close to Fareham station? Then any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.
