About our fire rated sealant in Northney
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. We work on door frames, pipe & cable gaps and flats & HMOs, and people most often call us about joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey and holes left by a change of layout.
Work in a small place like Northney is planned ahead, journey included, so the job can fit around bookings, guests or opening times where possible.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Different surfaces, different methods
Service penetrations
New gaps tend to show up where services have been added. Old or unsuitable filler comes out before the right sealant goes in.
Masonry and concrete
Preparation counts on brick, block and concrete. The gap is cleaned and backed where required.
Signs you need fire rated sealant in Northney
Buildings are refitted and reconfigured over the years. A house turned into flats or an HMO, or an office split into smaller units, brings new walls, new service routes and new gaps.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Linear gaps at the head of walls
- Open gaps behind door architraves
- Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
- Fire stopping disturbed by later work
Letting a property close to Warblington station? Then fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through.

What does fire rated sealant cost?
Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. To get one, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing and where.
Can you work in occupied buildings?
Yes, in flats, HMOs, schools, offices and other buildings, occupied or empty. Tell us how the building is used and we will plan around it.
Do I need to be at home?
It depends on the job. Inside work needs someone to give us access.
Do you provide details of the products used?
Yes. Every gap we seal is listed with the product used so it’s there for the next inspection.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. It all has to come out first.
Will it make a mess?
No. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.

Aftercare tips
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Include fire stopping when you schedule refits
- Take pictures of fire stopping before ceilings or boxing go back
- Ask every contractor to reseal any fire stopping they disturb
- Don’t fill fire-stopping gaps with ordinary foam or silicone
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.
When you plan work that goes through walls or ceilings, plan the fire stopping too. Catching it then saves a separate visit later.
How the visit works
There’s no need to move everything out, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the job takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access for a typical job. For a village or hamlet like Northney, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We plan the order of work and access, floor by floor or flat by flat.
- Old, damaged or unsuitable sealant is removed.
- Dust and loose debris are cleaned from each gap.
- We apply and tool the sealant to the product’s tested detail.
- Locations and products are written up and any gaps unsuitable for sealant are flagged.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on

Advice
What affects the quote in Northney
Your quote is based on your job. We look at:
- Whether the work is at height
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- The old material and how stubborn it is
Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you an honest view and a quote.
Helping us quote
There’s no need for technical detail. Just tell us:
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- If someone has resealed it before
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
There’s no standard price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, we send you a clear quote for your job. To get started, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Should I try it myself first?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. 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.
What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- Issuing a fire rating or certificate for a building
- Fire doors that need new seals, closers or hardware
- Deciding what fire stopping a building needs
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we seal
- Pipe & cable gaps
- Linear gaps
- Flats & HMOs
