Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Wash Water
Filling a fire-stopping gap with standard silicone or caulk does not make it fire-rated. We cut out the wrong material and the gap is resealed with a product tested for that use. If you have linear gaps at the head of walls and joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey, we can help.
For a small place like Wash Water, the journey and timings are agreed in advance, so it can be fitted around guests, customers or events where possible.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

How the visit works
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the work takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are for a typical job. Somewhere like Wash Water 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 plan the order of work and access, floor by floor or flat by flat.
- We take out any damaged or unsuitable sealant.
- Gaps are cleaned of dust and loose material.
- We apply and tool the sealant to the product’s tested detail.
- We record what was done and flag anything that needs a different system.
How to prepare
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

DIY versus a professional finish
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
What we are called out for in Wash Water
Gaps around door frames are easily missed. The gap between the frame and the wall is hidden behind the architrave, so it can be left open when a door is replaced.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall
- Joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey
- Open joints along the top of partitions
- Unsealed gaps around fire door frames
Letting a property close to Newbury station? Then new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant.

Why act early in Wash Water
Doing it once, properly, beats doing it twice. Work that doesn’t follow the tested detail may have to come out again when the building is next checked. In a small place like Wash Water, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.

Honest limits
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Sign-off of the building, which sits with building control or your assessor
- Doors that are not fire doors in the first place
- Construction that does not provide fire resistance on its own
If you are not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer.
What we seal
- Door frames
- Pipe & cable gaps
- Linear gaps
- Flats & HMOs
- Plasterboard & masonry
- Service penetrations
Surface by surface
Masonry and concrete
For masonry and concrete, we use a product tested in that substrate. We clean out dust and debris before sealing so the seal has something sound to bond to.
Door frames
A door can only do its job if the gap behind its frame is sealed too. We seal that gap with a fire-rated sealant suited to the frame and wall.
What fire rated sealant looks like in Wash Water
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.
Schools such as Horris Hill School are buildings too, and service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment. Community buildings like St Luke Church are part of the picture too: older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking.
