Common questions in Sparsholt
I let a flat near Winchester station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before we start.
Will you come out to Sparsholt?
Yes, Sparsholt is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Are you insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
What do you put in the joint?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, chosen to suit the joint. We explain the product when we quote.
Will we have a record of what was sealed?
Yes. Every gap we seal is listed with the product used, so you have it on file.
Do you seal gaps around fire door frames?
Yes. Gaps behind architraves are a common job for us. Doors, seals and closers need a door specialist.
Do I have to be there?
We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
Can you tell me how many minutes the seal will last?
Ratings and certificates are not something we issue. What’s required is set by your assessor or designer, and the product’s tested details show what it achieves, and we install to them.
Fire rated sealant in Sparsholt, done properly
Filling a fire-stopping gap with standard silicone or caulk does not make it fire-rated. Anything unsuitable comes out first and reseal with a fire-rated product tested for that kind of gap. Common call-outs are for cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant and holes left by a change of layout, across linear gaps, door frames and plasterboard & masonry.
Somewhere as small as Sparsholt, commercial jobs tend to be pubs, holiday lets, farm buildings or halls rather than offices. Each still needs sound sealant in its washrooms and kitchens, and fire-rated joints where services pass through walls.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Sparsholt as everywhere else we work.

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Allow for resealing whenever new services are run
- Include hidden areas like risers in routine checks
- Check whether a sealant can be painted before decorating over it
- Take photos of fire stopping before ceilings or boxing go back
Keep the record we give you with the building’s fire safety documents. It saves time at the next inspection or assessment.
A flagged gap shouldn’t wait for the next assessment. Have it sealed, then keep the record so the item can be closed.

What else we do in Sparsholt
Do you need fire rated sealant in Sparsholt?
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.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Gaps filled with a product that is not fire-rated
- Unsealed gaps around fire door frames
- Old fire sealant that has split or come away
- Damaged fire sealant left by other trades
Community buildings like Church of St Stephen are part of the picture too: service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.

- Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out.
- The specified fire-rated sealant goes in over any backing its detail requires.

- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

Should I try it myself first?
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.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

- The size of the job
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Whether the work is at height
- Which sealant suits the joint

What we cannot put right

- A wall that is not a fire-resisting element to begin with
