Common problems we fix in West Liss

Sealant applied too thin, without the backing its detail needs, or onto dust will not perform as it was tested. Rushed fire stopping is common.

The most common problems we see are:

  • Unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall
  • Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
  • Gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment
  • Linear gaps at the head of walls

For buildings such as Church of St Mary, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.

How to choose a mastic man

Fire rated sealant in West Liss

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 apply it to the depth its tested detail calls for. Common call-outs are for open joints along the top of partitions and fire seals that have cracked with movement, on pipe & cable gaps, flats & HMOs and linear gaps.

Somewhere as small as West Liss, commercial jobs tend to be pubs, holiday lets, farm buildings or halls rather than offices. Each still needs sound sealant in its washrooms and kitchens, and fire-rated joints where services pass through walls.

Honest limits

Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:

  • Doors that aren’t fire doors in the first place
  • Construction that doesn’t provide fire resistance on its own
  • Sign-off of the building, which sits with building control or your assessor

If you’re not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we seal

  • Plasterboard & masonry
  • Linear gaps
  • Flats & HMOs

Quotes for fire rated sealant in West Liss

Call for a quick quote. What matters most is:

  • Mould in or behind the old joints
  • Access and height
  • Which sealant suits the joint
  • How many areas need sealing

A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Asking for a quote

Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:

  • What’s wrong with the joints now
  • The rough size of the job
  • How we’d reach the joints
  • Whether it’s a home or a business

Every job is quoted individually, so the first step is telling us about yours. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details and send pictures if you have them.

Landlords, agents and businesses in West Liss

Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.

Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we will give you a quote.

Can I do it myself?

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.

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.

The process

Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we do not rush it. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. All told, the work takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. In a small place like West Liss, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We plan the order of work and access, floor by floor or flat by flat.
  2. Old, damaged or unsuitable sealant is removed.
  3. Dust and loose debris are cleaned from each gap.
  4. We apply and tool the sealant to the product’s tested detail.
  5. Locations and products are written up and any gaps unsuitable for sealant are flagged.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to look after the new joints

Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:

  • Keep photos of seals that will be hidden
  • Tell trades working in the building that fire seals must be put back
  • Don’t paint over fire sealant until it has cured
  • Store the list of sealed gaps with your building paperwork

Any fire seal that’s cut or drilled needs resealing to its tested detail. New services through a sealed wall should include fire stopping in the plan.

It’s easiest to seal gaps while they’re few and easy to reach. Over time, more work adds more holes and the job gets bigger.

Workplaces and buildings in West Liss

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.

Rented homes near Liss station change hands often, and new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant. If you look after a building such as Liss Infant School, fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.
