Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Rowner
A gap around a door frame, a linear joint at the head of a wall and a hole round a pipe are each sealed differently. Measuring the gap and checking what it’s made of comes first, then the sealant goes in to the depth the product’s details set. Typical jobs include holes left by a change of layout and fire stopping disturbed by later work, across linear gaps, pipe & cable gaps and door frames.
In a smaller place like Rowner, commercial jobs tend to be smaller buildings: a pub, a surgery, a school, a shop or a few business units. Each needs the same care with its sealant as any larger building.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Rowner as everywhere else we work.

Rowner questions
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Fareham station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we will send you a clear quote.
Is Rowner in your area for fire rated sealant?
Yes, Rowner is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing.
Where are you based?
We work from Crawley. We cover Rowner and the rest of Hampshire, along with the rest of our area.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured for every job we do.
Do you certify the fire stopping?
We don’t certify fire stopping or quote ratings. Our part is installing the specified product to its tested details and list the locations and products for you.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, always, and completely. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Will there be a smell?
Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.
Can you fill the gap behind a fire door frame?
Yes. Gaps behind architraves are a common job for us. The door and its fittings are a separate job for a door specialist.
For landlords and businesses
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.
Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too in Rowner and across Hampshire. Several sites can go on one quote.
When it is not the sealant
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Sign-off of the building, which sits with building control or your assessor
- Construction that does not provide fire resistance on its own
- Big openings where sealant alone isn’t the tested solution
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will say what we think before booking.
What we seal
- Pipe & cable gaps
- Linear gaps
- Door frames
- Service penetrations
- Flats & HMOs
- Plasterboard & masonry
Signs you need fire rated sealant in Rowner
If the sealant is too shallow, has the wrong backing or sits on a dusty surface, it is not installed as tested. Rushed fire stopping is common.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
- Open joints along the top of partitions
- New service routes left unsealed after building work
- Gaps filled with a product that isn’t fire-rated
Managing a site like Bridgemary School? Then gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices.
What to look for in a quote
- When the joint can take water or movement
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- The length of the guarantee
- Whether you can choose the colour
What we do, step by step
Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access, and the area is left clean. Parking around Rowner is normally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.
- We begin by agreeing the list of gaps from your assessor’s or designer’s requirements.
- Each gap is measured and its substrate and service noted.
- Any non-fire-rated filler is removed and the faces cleaned.
- We fit backing where needed and apply the fire-rated sealant to depth.
- We hand over a list of locations and products.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

Commercial buildings in Rowner
If you run a hotel, guest house or holiday let in a coastal place like Rowner, busy months put washrooms and kitchens under pressure, so it’s worth checking the sealant before the busiest weeks. Workplaces and the common parts of blocks of flats in England need a fire risk assessment under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which is often where open fire-stopping gaps are first noticed. We apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details.
Rented homes near Fareham station change hands often, and any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product. Community buildings like St Matthew's are part of the picture too: gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.

DIY versus a professional finish
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
What affects the cost of fire rated sealant
Call for a quick quote. What matters most is:
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- The number and length of the joints
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- How easy the joints are to reach
What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
What we need to know
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- Whether it has been sealed before
- The address or postcode of the job
Call for a quick quote, or email us if that is easier. Describe what needs sealing and we’ll explain what’s involved.
How the job changes by surface
Linear gaps
Some linear gaps have to cope with movement as well as fire. The product and depth are chosen to suit both, following the tested detail.
Flats and HMOs
Flats and HMOs rely on fire separation between homes and the common parts. We seal the gaps your assessor has identified.
