Commercial buildings in Wilsley Pound
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 are given, installing the product to its tested details.
Managing a site like Cranbrook Church of England Primary School? Then fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in. Letting a property close to Staplehurst station? Then fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through. For buildings such as Church of the Holy Trinity, older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking.

How we handle fire rated sealant in Wilsley Pound
A fire seal relies on being installed the way it was tested: the right depth, the right backing and the right product for the substrate. That detail is what we take care over, one gap at a time. Common call-outs are for seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers and cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant, across pipe & cable gaps, linear gaps and door frames.
For holiday lets, converted business premises or a community building near Wilsley Pound, the washrooms, kitchens and any fire-rated joints need the same care as a big site.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

Honest limits
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Big openings where sealant alone is not the tested solution
- A wall that isn’t a fire-resisting element to begin with
- Problems with the door itself rather than the gap around the frame
If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Service penetrations
- Pipe & cable gaps
- Flats & HMOs
- Linear gaps
- Door frames
- Plasterboard & masonry
Should I try it myself first?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t fill fire-stopping gaps with ordinary foam or silicone
- Take pictures of fire stopping before ceilings or boxing go back
- Report cracked or damaged seals as soon as you notice them
- File the fire-stopping record where your assessor can find it
Let contractors know where fire stopping has been done, and ask them to reseal anything they cut through. Later work is a common cause of damaged fire stopping.
Any job that breaks through a wall or ceiling should include resealing. Catching it then saves a separate visit later.

How the job changes by surface
Service penetrations
A copper pipe, a cable and a plastic pipe can all need different fire-stopping details. We follow the manufacturer’s tested detail for each.
Door frames
A door can only do its job if the gap behind its frame is sealed too. We fill it with a fire-rated product suited to the materials either side.

Is standard sealant good enough for a fire gap?
No. Standard sealants are not made or tested to stop fire. If it’s been used, we remove it and use the right product.
Do you work in flats, HMOs and commercial buildings?
Yes. Occupied flats, HMOs, offices and schools are all fine, with access planned around residents or staff. Early starts or out-of-hours work can be arranged.

Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. To get one, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing and where.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, every time. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Will there be a smell?
Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
