Workplaces and buildings in Rowledge
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 are given, installing the product to its tested details.
If you let a flat or house near Bentley (Hampshire) station, any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product. For buildings such as Saint James, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.

How we handle fire rated sealant in Rowledge
We don’t assess buildings or decide what fire stopping is needed; your assessor, designer or building control sets that out. Our part is applying the specified sealant carefully, to the right depth and with the right backing. We work on linear gaps, pipe & cable gaps and flats & HMOs, and people most often call us about door frames with gaps between frame and wall and gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment.
In a village or hamlet like Rowledge, commercial work is more likely to be a pub, a farm shop, holiday lets or a village hall than an office block. They all have washrooms, kitchens and service openings that need the right sealant.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Looking after it afterwards
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Do not fill fire-stopping gaps with ordinary foam or silicone
- File the fire-stopping record where your assessor can find it
- Include hidden areas like risers in routine checks
- Report cracked or damaged seals as soon as you notice them
Include fire stopping in your regular building checks. Watch for cracking, gaps or seals that have been disturbed and have them put right.
Any job that breaks through a wall or ceiling should include resealing. Doing it at the time avoids leaving gaps behind.
FAQs for Rowledge
Is Rowledge within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
I let a flat near Bentley (Hampshire) station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before work begins.
Can I use normal mastic around a pipe through a fire wall?
No. A gap that needs fire stopping needs a tested fire-rated product.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, because it fails. The old sealant always comes out first, so the new joint bonds to clean surfaces.
Is there any odour?
Sometimes, a little. It fades as the sealant cures.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and you’ll get one quote.
Do you seal gaps around fire door frames?
Yes. We often seal open gaps hidden behind the architrave. Doors, seals and closers need a door specialist.
Do you provide details of the products used?
Yes. Every gap we seal is listed with the product used so it’s there for the next inspection.
How it works
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. The work generally takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. In a small place like Rowledge, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- Access to each area is agreed so the work can run in order.
- Old, damaged or unsuitable sealant is removed.
- Dust and loose debris are cleaned from each gap.
- We apply and tool the sealant to the product’s tested detail.
- Locations and products are written up and any gaps unsuitable for sealant are flagged.
How to prepare
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
Getting a quote
We quote each job on its own, so the first step is telling us about yours. Simply ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and describe the job.
Advice
When something else is needed
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Doors that aren’t fire doors in the first place
- A wall that is not a fire-resisting element to begin with
- Big openings where sealant alone is not the tested solution
If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Plasterboard & masonry
- Service penetrations

What affects the quote in Rowledge
You will get a clear quote before work begins. It’s based on:
- Access and height
- The product the joint needs
- When we can work, for business premises
- Mould in or behind the old joints
Combining jobs into one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We’ll give you a clear price for the lot.
What to tell us for a quote
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Try to tell us:
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- The type of property
- Whether it has been sealed before
- What’s wrong with the joints now

How the job changes by surface
Flats and HMOs
Conversions normally leave a mix of old and new service holes. We seal the ones on your specification with a tested product.
Door frames
The gap between a door frame and the wall around it needs sealing as well as the door itself. We fill it with a fire-rated product suited to the materials either side.
Common problems we fix in Rowledge
Lots of unsealed gaps appear long after the building was completed. Electricians, plumbers and data installers drill through walls and ceilings and the hole round the new service isn’t always sealed again.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
- Linear gaps at the head of walls
- New service routes left unsealed after building work
- Door frames with gaps between frame and wall
Schools such as Rowledge Church of England Controlled Primary School are buildings too, and fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.
What to look for in a quote
- When the joint can take water or movement
- How hidden problems are handled
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- How long the guarantee is
What happens if it’s left?
Fire-rated sealants are less forgiving than ordinary ones. How it’s installed changes how it performs, so we follow the maker’s details on every gap. In a small place like Rowledge, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask about the job first.
