Should I try it myself first?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
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 does not work out, we can still put it right.
How we handle fire rated sealant in Oliver's Battery
Where services or frames pass through a fire-resisting wall or floor, the gap around them needs a fire-rated seal. We apply intumescent and fire-rated sealants to the manufacturer’s tested details for each gap. If you are dealing with standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap and open holes round services passing through fire walls, we can put it right.
For a small place like Oliver's Battery, the journey and timings are agreed in advance, 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, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

- What’s wrong with the joints now
- The address or postcode of the job
- If someone has resealed it before
- Any access issues, like height or stairs

What the job involves on each surface
Plasterboard walls
In plasterboard walls, the condition of the board edge matters. Crumbling edges are cleaned back before the sealant goes in.
Flats and HMOs
In flats and HMOs, the walls and floors between homes and common areas need sealing where services pass through. We seal the gaps your assessor has identified room by room.
For landlords and businesses
We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we will give you a quote.
Signs you need fire rated sealant in Oliver's Battery
Door frames are a common weak spot. The gap between the frame and the wall is hidden behind the architrave, so it’s easy to leave unsealed when doors are changed.
The problems people usually mention when they call are:
- Damaged fire sealant left by other trades
- Open gaps behind door architraves
- Old fire sealant that has split or come away
- Gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment
Managing a site like Olivers Battery Primary School? Then service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.

- Whether they seal over old material or remove it

Commercial buildings in Oliver's Battery
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.
Community buildings like Saint Mark's are part of the picture too: older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking. Rented homes near Shawford station change hands often, and fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through.
