- Openings too large for sealant, which need batts, boards or another system

What we seal
- Pipe & cable gaps
- Flats & HMOs

About our fire rated sealant in Nutcombe
Deciding which gaps need fire stopping isn’t our role; your assessor, designer or building control sets that out. What we do is apply the right product to that specification, properly and neatly. Typical jobs include unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall and old fire sealant that has split or come away, across door frames, plasterboard & masonry and pipe & cable gaps.
If you have holiday lets, a converted barn used for business or a community building near Nutcombe, the washrooms, kitchens and any fire-rated joints need the same care as a big site.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard.

What happens if it’s left?
Waiting for the next refit can leave a gap open for years. On its own, sealing it now is a small job and needn’t wait for anything else. Older cottages and farmhouses around Nutcombe can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you are unsure, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.

What affects the quote in Nutcombe
Every job gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- When we can work, for business premises
- The size of the job
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- The product the joint needs
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
What we need to know
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Try to tell us:
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- Roughly how big the job is
- Where the property is
- What’s wrong with the joints now
To get a quote, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the location and a short description of the problem. You will have a clear quote before work begins.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Plan fire stopping into any work that goes through walls or floors
- Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
- Take photos of fire stopping before ceilings or boxing go back
- Flag any open gap you spot round a pipe or cable
Avoid covering a sealed gap with anything that isn’t part of the tested detail. Repairs should use a matching fire-rated product. We can tell you which product we used.
It’s easiest to seal gaps while they’re few and easy to reach. Over time, more work adds more holes and the list grows.
Commercial buildings in Nutcombe
Nutcombe has hotels and guest accommodation in and around it. For hotels, a room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on. Workplaces and the common parts of blocks of flats in England need a fire risk assessment under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, 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.
For buildings such as Church of St Luke, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Amesbury School, gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices.

How the visit works
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and tell you how long to leave it. The visit itself normally takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building, depending on how much there is to do. For a village or hamlet like Nutcombe, 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 begin by agreeing the list of gaps from your assessor’s or designer’s requirements.
- Each gap is measured and its substrate and service noted.
- Any non-fire-rated filler is removed.
- The specified fire-rated sealant goes in over any backing its detail requires.
- We hand over a list of locations and products for your records.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any tricky access
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Common problems we fix in Nutcombe
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 round the new service isn’t always sealed again.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Open gaps behind door architraves
- Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
- Unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall
- Gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs
Letting a property close to Haslemere station? Then any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.

Questions from Nutcombe
Do you cover smaller places like Nutcombe?
Yes. Nutcombe is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you take on hotel work around Nutcombe?
Yes, hospitality work, including hotels, is part of what we do. Jobs can be programmed room by room, with out-of-hours working possible to arrange.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, with over 20 years’ experience in sealant work.
Is it messy?
Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
Is intumescent sealant the same as fire-rated sealant?
Intumescent means it swells when heated. Intumescent sealants are one kind of fire-rated sealant; which product suits depends on the gap, the substrate and the service.
What information do you need?
Tell us what needs doing and where, with pictures by email if possible. If we need more, we will ask.
Should I try DIY first?
That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, and it’s something we never do.
