Fire rated sealant around Penton Mewsey
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.
Letting a property close to Andover station? Then any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product. If you look after a building such as Harrow Way Community School, gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices. Community buildings like Holy Trinity Church are part of the picture too: gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.

What happens on the day
When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before work begins. Most jobs take a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. Somewhere as small as Penton Mewsey, 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.
- Anything that isn’t fit for the job comes out, and the gap is cleaned.
- 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.
- Locations and products are noted so you have them on file.
How to prepare
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Move anything stored near the joints

Surface by surface
Service penetrations
Different services need different details: metal pipes, cables and plastic pipes aren’t treated the same. Each one is sealed to the product’s tested detail and we flag any that need another system.
Masonry and concrete
For masonry and concrete, we use a product tested in that substrate. The gap is cleaned of dust first so the sealant bonds.
Why deal with it now?
Paying for fire stopping that has to be redone is a false economy. Work that doesn’t follow the tested detail may have to come out again once someone inspects it. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Penton Mewsey, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

Questions from Penton Mewsey
Can you do fire rated sealant in Penton Mewsey?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Penton Mewsey is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Andover station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before resealing.
How long will you be here?
A typical job takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access, including preparation and clearing up. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
Is there any odour?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, which fades as it sets. Opening a window helps.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes. All our work carries our 12-month guarantee.
What do you put in the joint?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We explain the product when we quote.
Can you tell me how many minutes the seal will last?
We do not issue ratings or certificates ourselves. The performance comes from the product’s tested details and the specification from your assessor or designer, and we install to them.
When it is not the sealant
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t solve:
- Issuing a fire rating or certificate for a building
- Problems with the door itself rather than the gap around the frame
- Openings too large for sealant, which need batts, boards or another system
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we seal
- Flats & HMOs
- Pipe & cable gaps
- Service penetrations
- Plasterboard & masonry
- Door frames
- Linear gaps
Aftercare tips
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Don’t paint over fire sealant until it has cured
- Never patch a fire seal with standard sealant
- Photograph sealed gaps before they’re covered up
- Keep the record of products and locations with your fire safety documents
Leave the sealant to cure fully before painting near it. Some fire-rated sealants can be painted and some can’t, so ask us which we used.
Any job that breaks through a wall or ceiling should include resealing. Doing it at the time avoids leaving gaps behind.
What affects the quote in Penton Mewsey
Jobs vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- Any mould that needs treating
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- The type of sealant required
- Any working-time requirements on site
Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.
Asking for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- If someone has resealed it before
- How we’d reach the joints
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
Call for a quick quote, or email us if that’s easier. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we’ll talk you through the work and give you a clear quote.
