Why deal with it now?
Sealant is not the fix for every opening. Large holes, cable bundles and plastic pipes can call for batts, collars or wraps. We’ll say so if a gap needs something other than sealant. Around Stonegate, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
The cost depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.

What we do, step by step
There is not much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The job generally takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access, including the tidy-up. Somewhere as small as Stonegate, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We plan the order of work and access, floor by floor or flat by flat.
- Old, damaged or unsuitable sealant is removed.
- Gaps are cleaned of dust and loose material.
- The fire-rated or intumescent sealant is applied and tooled to the tested detail.
- Locations and products are written up and any gaps unsuitable for sealant are flagged.
Getting ready for the visit
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on

What fire rated sealant looks like in Stonegate
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, 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 St Peter, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building. If you look after a building such as Stonegate Church of England Primary School, fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.

Surface by surface
Plasterboard walls
Holes in plasterboard are often cut roughly for services. Gaps that are too big for sealant alone need a different detail.
Masonry and concrete
Core-drilled and broken-out holes in concrete are often irregular. We measure the gap at its widest point to make sure it suits the product.
What we’re called out for in Stonegate
Sealant applied too thin, without the backing its detail needs, or onto dust will not perform as it was tested. We see plenty of fire stopping that was hurried, especially where it was squeezed in at the end of a project.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Open joints along the top of partitions
- Unsealed gaps around fire door frames
- Sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list
- Fire stopping disturbed by later work
For landlords with property near Stonegate station, new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant.

What sealant work can’t fix
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant won’t put right:
- Fire doors that need new seals, closers or hardware
- Large holes that need a different fire-stopping system
- Fire risk assessments, which need a qualified assessor

DIY versus a professional finish
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
