Different surfaces, different methods
Flats and HMOs

Fire rated sealant in Warblington
A gap around a door frame, a linear joint at the head of a wall and a hole round a pipe are each sealed differently. We check the size and the substrate before choosing the product, then the sealant goes in to the depth the product’s details set. We work on service penetrations, plasterboard & masonry and pipe & cable gaps, and people most often call us about gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs and holes left by a change of layout.
If you have holiday lets, a converted barn used for business or a community building near Warblington, washroom and kitchen sealant and any fire-rated joints need the same attention as anywhere.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Warblington and across Hampshire.

Signs you need fire rated sealant in Warblington
Movement in the structure can open gaps too: a seal that cracks or pulls away leaves a path for smoke. Knocks, maintenance and building work damage it further.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Door frames with gaps between frame and wall
- Gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls
- Gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs
- Fire stopping disturbed by later work
Managing a site like Bosmere Junior School? Then gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether they’re fully insured
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- The length of the guarantee
- Whether you can choose the colour
When it isn’t the sealant
In fairness, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:
- Fire doors that need new seals, closers or hardware
- A wall that is not a fire-resisting element to begin with
- Large holes that need a different fire-stopping system
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think.

Advice
DIY versus a professional finish
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
Fire rated sealant in Warblington: local notes
If you run a hotel, guest house or holiday let in a coastal place like Warblington, busy months put washrooms and kitchens under pressure, so it’s worth checking the sealant before the busiest weeks. 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.
Rented homes near Warblington station change hands often, and any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product. For buildings such as St Thomas à Becket Church, older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking.

Your questions about fire rated sealant in Warblington
Do you take on hotel work around Warblington?
Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. Rooms can be done a few at a time, so the building stays open.
Do you cover smaller places like Warblington?
Yes. Warblington is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
We’ll suggest a colour to suit the surroundings, from white and clear to greys and other shades. The product needed can limit the range.
Do you do fire sealant around door frames?
Yes. We seal the gap between the frame and the wall with a suitable fire-rated product. The door, its seals and closer are for a door specialist.
How long does fire rated sealant take?
Most jobs take a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, because it fails. The old sealant always comes out first, so the new sealant bonds properly.
Do you carry out fire risk assessments?
No, assessment isn’t something we do. Once you have a specification or action list from your assessor or designer, we will quote for the sealant work on it.
Do you provide details of the products used?
Yes. We record the locations we’ve sealed and the products used to keep with your fire safety documents.
What else we do in Warblington
Leave it or put it right?
If an assessor has flagged gaps, it makes sense to close them before the next review. Getting them done and written up means you can show the action was taken. Older cottages and farmhouses around Warblington can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.
