How we handle fire rated sealant in Radley
Until it’s heated, intumescent sealant behaves like an ordinary sealant; in a fire it expands into the joint. The right product depends on the gap size, the substrate and what passes through, so we work to the manufacturer’s details. If you have gaps left after a refit or conversion and open gaps behind door architraves, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
In a village or hamlet like Radley, commercial work is more likely to be a pub, a farm shop, holiday lets or a village hall than an office block. Each still needs sound sealant in its washrooms and kitchens, and fire-rated joints where services pass through walls.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Oxfordshire.

How we quote for fire rated sealant
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We take into account:
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The product the joint needs
- The number of rooms or windows
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.
What we need to know
To make quoting easier, let us know:
- Where the property is
- Whether it has been sealed before
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking

What the job involves on each surface
Masonry and concrete
Masonry is dusty and porous, so preparation matters. We brush and vacuum the gap and use backing where the detail needs it before applying the sealant.
Service penetrations
New gaps tend to show up where services have been added. We clean out what’s there and reseal to the right depth with backing where the detail needs it.
Do you need fire rated sealant in Radley?
Over time, buildings change layout and use. A house turned into flats or an HMO, or an office split into smaller units, brings new walls, new service routes and new gaps.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Old fire sealant that has split or come away
- Joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey
- Gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs
- Holes left by a change of layout
Managing a site like Radley Church of England Primary School? Then service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.
Questions to ask before booking
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- How long to leave it before use
- What guarantee comes with the work
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
When something else is needed
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’ll tell you before we start. Sealant will not put right:
- Problems with the door itself rather than the gap around the frame
- Sign-off of the building, which sits with building control or your assessor
- Big openings where sealant alone is not the tested solution
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think.

The process
When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Surfaces next to the work are protected before work begins. The work usually takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. Somewhere as small as Radley, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We begin by agreeing the list of gaps from your assessor’s or designer’s requirements.
- We measure every gap and note what it’s in and what passes through.
- Any non-fire-rated filler is removed.
- We fit backing where needed and apply the fire-rated sealant to depth.
- Every location is recorded with the product used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
How to get a quote
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and add photos by email if you can.
Related advice
What happens if it’s left?
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. Older cottages and farmhouses around Radley can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
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 work begins.

Is intumescent sealant the same as fire-rated sealant?
Fire-rated is the broad term for sealants tested for fire stopping. Intumescent types expand when heated, and they’re one option among several. The specification and the tested detail decide which is used.
What fire rated sealant looks like in Radley
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 Church of St James are part of the picture too: older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking. If you let a flat or house near Radley station, any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.
