Work in a small place like Peppard Hill is planned ahead, journey included, so the job can fit around bookings, guests or opening times where possible.

DIY versus a professional finish

A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.

Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

What the job involves on each surface

Service penetrations

Wherever a service goes through a fire-resisting wall or floor, there’s a gap around it. We seal it with a product tested for that service and gap size.

Flats and HMOs

In occupied buildings, we plan the order of work with you. Access to flats and common areas is agreed in advance.

What sealant work cannot fix

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Doors that are not fire doors in the first place
  • Large holes that need a different fire-stopping system
  • Fire risk assessments, which need a qualified assessor

If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.

What we seal

  • Linear gaps
  • Flats & HMOs
  • Plasterboard & masonry
  • Service penetrations
  • Pipe & cable gaps
  • Door frames

Landlords, agents and businesses in Peppard Hill

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.

Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.

Commercial buildings in Peppard Hill

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 work to the specification you’re given, installing the product to its tested details.

For buildings such as The Church of Christ the King, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there. Rented homes near Henley-On-Thames station change hands often, and fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through. Managing a site like Peppard Church of England Primary School? Then fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.

How to look after the new joints

Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:

  • Store the list of sealed gaps with your building paperwork
  • Don’t paint over fire sealant until it has cured
  • Keep photos of seals that will be hidden
  • Include fire stopping when you schedule refits

Any fire seal that’s cut or drilled needs resealing to its tested detail. New services through a sealed wall should include fire stopping in the plan.

Open gaps do not only matter in a fire: noise, draughts and even pests can come through too. Sealing them early helps on every front.

How the visit works

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 any work begins. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. Somewhere as small as Peppard Hill, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. We start with the survey or action list, checking the size and surfaces of every gap.
  2. We remove any old or unsuitable filler and clean the gap.
  3. Where the tested detail needs backing or fill, we fit it.
  4. Fire-rated or intumescent sealant is applied to the right depth and tooled.
  5. Locations and products are noted so you have them on file.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the work
  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
  • Tell us about any water getting in

Common questions in Peppard Hill

Do you cover smaller places like Peppard Hill?

Yes. Peppard Hill is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

I let a flat near Henley-On-Thames station. Can you help?

Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders, and several properties can be quoted together. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.

Do you carry out fire risk assessments?

No. Your fire risk assessor, designer or building control decides that. Our job is applying the sealant to their specification.

Do you provide details of the products used?

Yes. You get a list of where we worked and what we used.

Is intumescent sealant the same as fire-rated sealant?

An intumescent sealant expands when it gets hot. Intumescent sealants are one kind of fire-rated sealant; the right one depends on the gap and what passes through it.

Can you seal over the old sealant?

No, and we never do. It may look fine at first, but the new bead soon lifts. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.

Can ordinary silicone be used in a fire-stopping gap?

No. Where a fire-rated seal is needed, it has to be a product tested for that use, installed to its details.

Can you work in occupied buildings?

Yes. We work in flats, HMOs, schools, offices and other commercial buildings, including occupied ones. We agree access and the order of work with you first.
