Aftercare tips
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Photograph sealed gaps before they’re covered up
- Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
- Flag any open gap you spot round a pipe or cable
- Ask which product was used before you paint
Tell other trades that the gaps have been sealed, and make sure anything they disturb is resealed with a suitable product. Later work is a common cause of damaged fire stopping.
If a fire risk assessment has flagged a gap, don’t leave it for the next one. Get it sealed and recorded so the item can be closed.
About our fire rated sealant in Stadhampton
In flats, HMOs, offices and schools, fire stopping is often disturbed by later work. One new cable or pipe can leave a gap that nobody goes back to seal. We seal them with a product tested for that kind of gap. If you’re dealing with joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey and gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls, we can put it right, on service penetrations, door frames and pipe & cable gaps alike.
In a village or hamlet like Stadhampton, 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.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once the job is done.

Fire rated sealant around Stadhampton
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 work to the specification you’re given, installing the product to its tested details.
Community buildings like Church of St John the Baptist are part of the picture too: older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking. Rented homes near Radley station change hands often, and new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant.

Different surfaces, different methods
Plasterboard walls
Holes in plasterboard are often cut roughly for services. Gaps that are too big for sealant alone need a different detail and we will flag it.
Flats and HMOs
In flats and HMOs, the walls and floors between homes and common areas need sealing where services pass through. We seal the gaps your assessor has identified.

What we can’t put right
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- A wall that isn’t a fire-resisting element to begin with
- Assessing a building’s fire safety
- Issuing a fire rating or certificate for a building
If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Stadhampton: your questions answered
Do you cover Stadhampton for fire rated sealant?
Yes, Stadhampton is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.
Is Stadhampton within the area you cover?
Yes. Stadhampton is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old sealant, and it traps any mould or water underneath. It all has to come out first.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
Can ordinary silicone be used in a fire-stopping gap?
No. It looks sealed but will not perform as fire stopping. A tested fire-rated product is needed.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
Do you carry out fire risk assessments?
No. We work from the specification you give us and install to the manufacturer’s details.
Do I have to be there?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we have agreed the job, you don’t need to watch us work.
Signs you need fire rated sealant in Stadhampton
Lots of unsealed gaps appear long after the building was completed. New cables, pipes and data runs go through walls and ceilings and the hole round the new service isn’t always sealed again.
Look out for these signs:
- Door frames with gaps between frame and wall
- Sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list
- Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
- Gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs
Schools such as Stadhampton Primary School are buildings too, and service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.

How the visit works
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and clear up. It generally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. In a small place like Stadhampton, access is usually the main thing to plan. 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.
- Each gap is measured and its substrate and service noted.
- Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out and the gap cleaned.
- The specified fire-rated sealant goes in over any backing its detail requires.
- We hand over a list of locations and products for your records.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Landlord and commercial work in Stadhampton
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Letting agents and landlords in Stadhampton can book us as well as householders. Resealing between tenancies keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.
What happens if it’s left?
If an assessor has flagged gaps, it makes sense to close them before the next review. Having them sealed and recorded now means you can show the action was taken. Around Stadhampton, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
Why Stadhampton customers choose us
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
- More than 20 years in sealant work
