Why deal with it now?

Squirting in whichever sealant is nearest doesn’t make a fire seal. Fire-rated products are tested in set gap sizes, depths and substrates, which is why we match the product and the method to each gap. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Stratfield Saye, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask about the job first.

When something else is needed

To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:

  • Construction that doesn’t provide fire resistance on its own
  • Assessing a building’s fire safety
  • Issuing a fire rating or certificate for a building

If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think.

Fire rated sealant in Stratfield Saye: local notes

Workplaces and the common parts of blocks of flats in England need a fire risk assessment under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, and gaps around services are often picked up there. 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. Mary the Virgin, older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking. Letting a property close to Mortimer station? Then any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.

Surface by surface

Service penetrations

Different services need different details: metal pipes, cables and plastic pipes aren’t treated the same. We follow the manufacturer’s tested detail for each and we flag any that need another system.

Linear gaps

Long, narrow gaps appear where walls meet slabs and ceilings. We seal them to the tested detail, with backing where it’s needed.

What happens on the day

At the end, we look at the finished work together and tell you how long to leave it. The work normally takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building, depending on the size of the job. For a village or hamlet like Stratfield Saye, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  1. We start with the survey or action list, checking the size and surfaces of every gap.
  2. Anything that isn’t fit for the job comes out, and the gap is cleaned.
  3. We put in whatever backing or fill the product detail specifies.
  4. We apply the fire-rated or intumescent sealant to the specified depth and tool it.
  5. Finally, we list where we worked and what we used, for your records.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
  • Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Advice

DIY sealant or a professional job?

A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.

Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

Aftercare tips

Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:

  • Look in service cupboards and ceiling voids from time to time
  • Check whether a sealant can be painted before decorating over it
  • Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
  • Take photos of fire stopping before ceilings or boxing go back

Any fire seal that’s cut or drilled needs resealing to its tested detail. New services through a sealed wall should include fire stopping in the plan.

If a fire risk assessment has flagged a gap, don’t leave it for the next one. Have it sealed, then keep the record so the item can be closed.

Where do you work from?

Can new sealant go over the old?

No, it won’t last. It may look fine at first, but the new bead soon lifts. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.

Do you take on fire stopping in schools and offices?

Yes, in flats, HMOs, schools, offices and other buildings, occupied or empty. Tell us how the building is used and we will plan around it.

Can you tell me which gaps need fire stopping?

No. We follow the requirements from your assessor, designer or building control.

Do you provide details of the products used?

Yes. We note each location and the product that went in.

What do you put in the joint?

Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what we are using.
