Fire Rated Sealant in Wildridings
Our applicators work in Wildridings on intumescent and fire-rated sealant around gaps, frames and service penetrations. Old material cut out, joints cleaned and sealed neatly.
- Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
- Open gaps behind door architraves
- Ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed
Leave it or put it right?
Fire-rated sealants need more care than everyday sealant. Depth, backing and surface preparation all affect how a seal performs, so we follow the maker’s details on every gap. In a smaller place like Wildridings, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.
There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a quick quote, please ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

How we handle fire rated sealant in Wildridings
Bigger jobs can be worked through in stages, flat by flat or floor by floor. That record is useful for your files and for whoever looks at the building next.

Around a place like Wildridings, halls, schools and small businesses all have washrooms and kitchens used by many people. Their sealant and fire-rated joints are as important as those in any bigger building.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

Fire rated sealant in Wildridings: local notes
Bracknell, which Wildridings is part of, is one of England’s post-war new towns. Bracknell was planned with its own industrial and business areas, so workplaces sit close to the homes. Their washrooms, kitchens and fire-rated joints need the same upkeep as anywhere. There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Wildridings. Hotel work can be planned room by room, with out-of-hours working where needed.
Schools such as Wildridings Primary School are buildings too, and gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices. If you let a flat or house near Bracknell station, any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.
Wildridings is about 1 mile south-west of Bracknell, in Bracknell Forest. From the centre of Wildridings to the outskirts, we cover fire rated sealant for every kind of property, from flats and houses to offices and hotels. Our area takes in 41 places across Bracknell Forest, large and small. You can also see our page for Reading, about 10 miles away.

What we are called out for in Wildridings
Door frames are a common weak spot. The architrave hides the gap between frame and wall, so it can be left open when a door is replaced.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Open gaps behind door architraves
- Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
- Gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls
- Gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs
For buildings such as St Michael and St Mary Magdalene's Church, older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking.

What else we do in Wildridings
DIY versus a professional finish
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 fails, we can still redo it.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

What we can’t put right
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Problems with the door itself rather than the gap around the frame
- Openings too large for sealant, which need batts, boards or another system
- Construction that does not provide fire resistance on its own
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will say what we think.
What we seal
- Door frames
- Plasterboard & masonry
- Flats & HMOs
- Linear gaps
- Service penetrations
- Pipe & cable gaps
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.
How it works
Good joint work is mostly preparation, and we do not rush it. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. In total, it generally takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. Parking around Wildridings is generally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.
- 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.
- The fire-rated or intumescent sealant is applied and tooled to the tested detail.
- We record what was done and flag anything that needs a different system.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the work
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

Surface by surface
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.
Linear gaps
Long, narrow gaps appear where walls meet slabs and ceilings. They’re sealed with a fire-rated sealant over backing where the detail calls for it.
