How to look after the new joints
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Flag any open gap you spot round a pipe or cable
- Allow for resealing whenever new services are run
- Check whether a sealant can be painted before decorating over it
- Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks
Any fire seal that’s cut or drilled needs resealing to its tested detail. If you need new services through a sealed wall, plan the fire stopping as part of the job.
An open gap is not only a fire issue: they also let noise, draughts and sometimes pests through. Sealing them early helps on every front.
About our fire rated sealant in Warfield Park
Deciding which gaps need fire stopping is not our role; that comes from your fire risk assessor, designer or building control. Our part is applying the specified sealant carefully, to the right depth and with the right backing. Typical jobs include gaps left after a refit or conversion and old fire sealant that has split or come away, on flats & HMOs, service penetrations and plasterboard & masonry.
Community buildings, schools and small businesses around places like Warfield Park have washrooms and kitchens that see a lot of use. Their sealant and fire-rated joints are as important as those in any bigger building.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard.

The process
When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. A visit to Warfield Park is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.
- We start with the survey or action list, checking the size and surfaces of every gap.
- Anything that is not fit for the job comes out, and the gap is cleaned.
- We put in whatever backing or fill the product detail specifies.
- The sealant goes in to the depth its detail sets, then it’s tooled off.
- Finally, we list where we worked and what we used, for your records.
Getting ready for the visit
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any tricky access

Advice
Warfield Park: your questions answered
Can you do fire rated sealant in Warfield Park?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Warfield Park is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Warfield Park?
Yes, Warfield Park is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
What do you put in the joint?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, chosen to suit the joint. We explain the product when we quote.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
What’s the difference between intumescent and fire-rated sealant?
Intumescent describes a material that swells in heat. Many fire-rated sealants work this way, but not all, and the choice depends on the gap.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We’re approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.
How much does fire rated sealant cost in Warfield Park?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Ask us for a quote and we will talk you through it.
Common problems we fix in Warfield Park
Sometimes the wrong product was used from the start: general-purpose foam, everyday silicone or caulk where a fire-rated seal was needed. It looks sealed, but it is not fire-rated.
People usually contact us after spotting one of these:
- Cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant
- Holes left by a change of layout
- Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
- Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
Managing a site like Whitegrove Primary School? Then fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.

Other services in Warfield Park
Commercial buildings in Warfield Park
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. Bracknell, which Warfield Park is part of, is one of England’s post-war new towns. Like the other new towns, Bracknell was planned with its own areas for industry and business, so workplaces sit close to the homes. Each has washrooms, kitchens and fire-rated joints to keep in order.
For buildings such as St Martin's Church, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building. For landlords with property near Martins Heron station, new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant.

How the job changes by surface
Linear gaps
Gaps along the top of partitions are easy to miss above a ceiling. We seal them along their full length leaving no stretch unsealed.
Plasterboard walls
Many fire-resisting walls in flats, offices and conversions are plasterboard. The sealant has to be one tested in plasterboard for the gap we’re sealing.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
When it isn’t the sealant
We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Big openings where sealant alone is not the tested solution
- Deciding what fire stopping a building needs
- Doors that aren’t fire doors in the first place
