How the job changes by surface
Door frames
Frame gaps are generally hidden behind the architrave. We seal any open gap to the product’s tested details so the architrave can be refitted.
Service penetrations
Different services need different details: metal pipes, cables and plastic pipes are not treated the same. Each one is sealed to the product’s tested detail, and tell you if sealant alone isn’t the right fix.
Landlord and commercial work in Portmore
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.
If you manage several properties in or around Portmore, jobs at different addresses can be quoted together. Send us the addresses and the work at each, and pictures by email help.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
Your questions about fire rated sealant in Portmore
Do you take on hotel work around Portmore?
Yes. Hotel and guest-house work is part of what we do. Work can be planned room by room, and out-of-hours working can be arranged.
Do you work for landlords with property near Lymington Town station?

How do I get a quote for fire rated sealant in Portmore?
We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. You will get a clear quote before we start.
How long will you be here?
Typically it takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. Larger jobs naturally take longer.
Is it messy?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
We help you choose a colour that suits, from white and clear to greys and other shades. The choice depends on the product the joint needs.
What sealant do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what we are using.
Do you seal gaps around fire door frames?
Yes. We often seal open gaps hidden behind the architrave. The door and its fittings are a separate job for a door specialist.

What fire rated sealant looks like in Portmore
If you run a hotel, guest house or holiday let in a coastal place like Portmore, 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 apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details.
If you let a flat or house near Lymington Town station, fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through. Community buildings like Saint Nicholas Chapel are part of the picture too: gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there. Managing a site like Southlands School? Then gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices.

What affects the quote in Portmore

What we do, step by step
We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building, and the area is left clean. In a small place like Portmore, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We go through the gaps on your list or survey and check each one’s size and substrate.
- Old or unsuitable sealant is cut out and the gap cleaned.
- Where the tested detail needs backing or fill, we fit it.
- 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.
How to prepare
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Tell us about any water getting in

How to look after the new joints
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Tell trades working in the building that fire seals must be put back
- Store the list of sealed gaps with your building paperwork
- Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks
- Photograph sealed gaps before they’re covered up
Include fire stopping in your regular building checks. Watch for cracking, gaps or seals that have been disturbed and get them seen to.
A flagged gap shouldn’t wait for the next assessment. Have it sealed, then keep the record.
Why it’s worth doing now in Portmore
Leaving a gap until a refurbishment comes round can mean years with it open. Sealing the gap now is a contained job on its own and needn’t wait for anything else. Around Portmore, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
