Can I do it myself?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
Fire rated sealant in Water Eaton
Intumescent sealant looks much like any other sealant until it gets hot; then it swells to help close the gap. Which product suits a gap depends on its width, the materials either side and what runs through it. We work on service penetrations, linear gaps and plasterboard & masonry, and people most often call us about seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers and gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls.
For a pub, café, guest house or shop in or near Water Eaton, the washrooms and kitchen need the same attention as a big site.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

What fire rated sealant looks like in Water Eaton
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.
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Water Eaton Church Centre, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building. Letting a property close to Bletchley station? Then new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant.

Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access in most cases.

- 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.
- Locations and products are written up and any gaps unsuitable for sealant are flagged.

How to look after the new joints
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Look in service cupboards and ceiling voids from time to time
- Take pictures of fire stopping before ceilings or boxing go back
- Include fire stopping when you schedule refits
- Tell trades working in the building that fire seals must be put back
Any fire seal that is 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.
If a fire risk assessment has flagged a gap, do not leave it for the next one. Get it sealed and recorded.
