Why it’s worth doing now in Skittle Green
If an assessor has flagged gaps, it makes sense to close them before the next review. Getting them done and written up gives you evidence that the item was dealt with. Older cottages and farmhouses around Skittle Green can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

Fire rated sealant in Skittle Green, done properly
A fire seal relies on being installed the way it was tested: the right depth, the right backing and the right product for the substrate. That’s the part we focus on. We work on linear gaps, service penetrations and plasterboard & masonry, and people most often call us about old fire sealant that has split or come away and door frames with gaps between frame and wall.
Somewhere as small as Skittle Green, commercial jobs tend to be pubs, holiday lets, farm buildings or halls rather than offices. They all have washrooms, kitchens and service openings that need the right sealant.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

Skittle Green: your questions answered
I let a flat near Princes Risborough station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners, and several properties can be quoted together. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Is Skittle Green in your area for fire rated sealant?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Skittle Green is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, and it traps any mould or water underneath. We remove it all first.
Do you certify the fire stopping?
We do not certify fire stopping or quote ratings. We apply the specified product to the manufacturer’s details and list the locations and products for you.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned.
Will there be a smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, but it fades. Ventilation helps.
What do you put in the joint?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, picked for each joint. We explain the product when we quote.
How long will you be here?
Most jobs take a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building, including preparation and clearing up. We’ll confirm how long when we quote.

Asking for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Photos by email, if that’s easy

DIY sealant or a professional job?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
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.
Different surfaces, different methods
Door frames
Behind most architraves is a gap between frame and wall. We seal any open gap to the product’s tested details.
Plasterboard walls
We check that the board around the gap is sound. Loose material is removed so the sealant has a firm edge.
Workplaces and buildings in Skittle Green
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 work to the specification you’re given, installing the product to its tested details.
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of the Holy Trinity, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building. For landlords with property near Princes Risborough station, new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant. Managing a site like Princes Risborough School? Then service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.

How to look after the new joints
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Ask every contractor to reseal any fire stopping they disturb
- Never patch a fire seal with standard sealant
- Take pictures of fire stopping before ceilings or boxing go back
- Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks
Follow the cure time we give you before decorating over the sealant. Not every fire-rated sealant takes paint and we’ll tell you which one you have.
An open gap is not only a fire issue: noise, draughts and even pests can come through too. Sealing them early helps on every front.
