Pagham Fire Rated Sealant
Fire-stopping gaps in Pagham need attention? We cut out the old, prepare the joints and apply the right sealant, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
- Linear gaps at the head of walls
- Cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant
- Damaged fire sealant left by other trades
Common problems we fix in Pagham
Gaps around door frames are easily missed. The architrave hides the gap between frame and wall, so it can be left open when a door is replaced.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls
- Linear gaps at the head of walls
- Fire stopping disturbed by later work
- Holes left by a change of layout
Community buildings like The Parish Church of St Thomas A Becket are part of the picture too: service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.

Fire rated sealant in Pagham, done properly
A gap around a door frame, a linear joint at the head of a wall and a hole round a pipe are each sealed differently. We check the size and the substrate before choosing the product, then the sealant goes in to the depth the product’s details set. If you have open gaps behind door architraves and joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey, we can help, whatever the surface.
Work in a small place like Pagham is planned ahead, journey included, so it can be fitted around guests, clients or events where possible.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

What else we do in Pagham
Questions from Pagham
Do you cover Pagham for fire rated sealant?
Yes, Pagham is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job.
Is Pagham within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do I need to be at home?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. Indoors, that usually means someone at home.
Do you certify the fire stopping?
That is not something we state or certify. Your specification sets the requirement, and we apply a product tested for it with a record of each location.
What do you put in the joint?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, chosen to suit the joint. We’ll tell you what we are using and why.
Where do you work from?
We work from Crawley. We cover Pagham and the rest of West Sussex.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes, always. There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, wherever you are.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. It all has to come out first.
For landlords and businesses
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room. We have worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
How the visit works
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we are treating, so you can carry on as normal. Expect the work to take a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. Somewhere as small as Pagham, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We start with the survey or action list, checking the size and surfaces of every gap.
- We remove any old or unsuitable filler and clean the gap.
- We put in whatever backing or fill the product detail specifies.
- The sealant goes in to the depth its detail sets, then it’s tooled off.
- Finally, we list where we worked and what we used, for your records.
Preparing for the visit
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Clear the area around the work
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Advice
What happens if it’s left?
Paying for fire stopping that has to be redone is a false economy. If the details weren’t followed, the seal may need redoing once someone inspects it. In a small place like Pagham, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, along with when we can work on site. Ask us for a quote and we will explain what it covers.

Should I try it myself first?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
What we can’t put right
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- Problems with the door itself rather than the gap around the frame
- A wall that is not a fire-resisting element to begin with
- Big openings where sealant alone isn’t the tested solution
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we seal

Workplaces and buildings in Pagham
If you run a hotel, guest house or holiday let in a coastal place like Pagham, 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 work to the specification you’re given, installing the product to its tested details.
Letting a property close to Bognor Regis station? Then new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Rose Green Infant School, gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices.

Well-known places in the area include Bognor Regis War Memorial Hospital (3.3 miles north-east) and Bognor Regis Museum (2.9 miles east).
Looking after it afterwards
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Report cracked or damaged seals as soon as you notice them
- Include hidden areas like risers in routine checks
- Do not fill fire-stopping gaps with ordinary foam or silicone
- Don’t paint over fire sealant until it has cured
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.
When you plan work that goes through walls or ceilings, plan the fire stopping too. Doing it at the time avoids leaving gaps behind.
