Fire rated sealant across Thursley and nearby, with old sealant always removed completely.
- Gaps left after a refit or conversion
- Open gaps behind door architraves
- Gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls
What we do, step by step
There’s no need to move everything out, just the space around the work. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are in most cases. Somewhere like Thursley needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We begin by agreeing the list of gaps from your assessor’s or designer’s requirements.
- We measure every gap and note what it’s in and what passes through.
- Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out and the faces cleaned.
- The specified fire-rated sealant goes in over any backing its detail requires.
- We hand over a list of locations and products.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

About our fire rated sealant in Thursley
Fire-rated sealant closes the gaps around pipes, cables and frames where they pass through a fire-resisting wall or floor. We apply intumescent and fire-rated sealants to the manufacturer’s tested details for each gap. If you are dealing with joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey and open joints along the top of partitions, we can help, on pipe & cable gaps, door frames and service penetrations alike.
Somewhere as small as Thursley, 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 something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

Fire rated sealant around Thursley
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 apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details.
Community buildings like Church of St Michael and All Angels are part of the picture too: older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
Landlords and letting agents in Thursley can book us as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.
What the job involves on each surface
Service penetrations
Pipes, cables and ducts passing through fire-resisting walls and floors each leave a gap. We seal it with a product tested for that service and gap size.
Plasterboard walls
In plasterboard walls, the condition of the board edge matters. Loose material is removed so the sealant has a firm edge.
Signs you need fire rated sealant in Thursley
Sometimes the wrong product was used from the start: ordinary expanding foam, standard silicone or decorators’ caulk in a place that needed a tested fire seal. It looks sealed, but it isn’t fire-rated.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Gaps left after a refit or conversion
- Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
- Open joints along the top of partitions
- Unsealed gaps around fire door frames
If you let a flat or house near Witley station, fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through.
Before you book anyone
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- When the joint can take water or movement
DIY versus a professional finish
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, 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.
Thursley questions
Is Thursley within the area you cover?
Yes, Thursley is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do you cover Thursley for fire rated sealant?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Thursley is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Do you provide details of the products used?
Yes. When the job is done, we give you the locations and products. Tell us if your assessor needs it in a particular format.
How long does fire rated sealant take?
It depends on the size of the job, but as a guide it takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. We’ll tell you when we quote.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.
Can ordinary silicone be used in a fire-stopping gap?
No. It might close the gap, but it is not a fire-rated seal. A tested fire-rated product is needed.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, and it traps any mould or water underneath. We remove it all first.
Can tenants book the work?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure your landlord agrees.
What affects the cost of fire rated sealant
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- Any working-time requirements on site
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs. Ask us for a quote and we’ll go through it with you.
What we need to know
There’s no need for technical detail. Just tell us:
- Whether it has been sealed before
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
Asking for a quote is easy: let us know the job and the location, and roughly how big it is. A few photos by email make the job easier to understand, and we’ll take it from there.
When something else is needed
In fairness, some problems need a different trade:
- Walls or floors that weren’t built to resist fire
- Fire risk assessments, which need a qualified assessor
- Issuing a fire rating or certificate for a building
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly before booking.
