How the visit works
Once we’re on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. 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 North Stoke, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We begin by agreeing the list of gaps from your assessor’s or designer’s requirements.
- We measure every gap and note what it’s in and what passes through.
- Any non-fire-rated filler is removed and the faces cleaned.
- We fit backing where needed and apply the fire-rated sealant to depth.
- We hand over a list of locations and products.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

How we handle fire rated sealant in North Stoke
Door frame gaps, linear joints and holes around services all have their own details. Measuring the gap and checking what it’s made of comes first, then apply it to the depth its tested detail calls for. We’re often asked to deal with open joints along the top of partitions and ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed, on plasterboard & masonry, pipe & cable gaps and linear gaps.
For holiday lets, converted business premises or a community building near North Stoke, the washrooms, kitchens and any fire-rated joints need the same care as a big site.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

When to call us in North Stoke
Movement in the structure can open gaps too: cracked or debonded sealant leaves an open route through the wall. Knocks, maintenance and building work damage it further.
The problems people usually mention when they call include:
- Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
- New service routes left unsealed after building work
- Sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list
- Unsealed gaps around fire door frames
Schools such as Wallingford School are buildings too, and fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.
What your quote should include
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- The length of the guarantee
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
Your questions about fire rated sealant in North Stoke
Is North Stoke within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Is North Stoke in your area for fire rated sealant?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and North Stoke is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear price.
Is there any odour?
Possibly a little. It fades as the sealant cures.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. We remove it all first.
Where are you based?
We work from Crawley. Our applicators cover North Stoke, along with the rest of our area.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Always. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
Can you fill the gap behind a fire door frame?
Yes, where the gap suits a sealant detail. We seal the frame-to-wall gap, not the door itself.
How long will you be here?
That depends on the amount of work, but as a guide it takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. We’ll give you a better idea when we quote.

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
Why deal with it now?
A quick fill with any sealant to hand isn’t fire stopping. A fire-rated product only performs as tested when it’s installed to its tested detail, which is why we match the product and the method to each gap. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like North Stoke, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
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. All the old material has to come out first.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.
How the job changes by surface
Service penetrations
Pipes, cables and ducts passing through fire-resisting walls and floors each leave a gap. The sealant is chosen for what passes through and how wide the gap is.
Linear gaps
Head-of-wall gaps are often hidden above suspended ceilings. We work along the whole run so there are no open sections left.
Workplaces and buildings in North Stoke
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 work to the specification you are given, installing the product to its tested details.
Rented homes near Cholsey station change hands often, and new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant. Community buildings like St Mary the Virgin are part of the picture too: service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.
