Surface by surface
Flats and HMOs
Converted houses often have gaps around old and new services. The gaps on your list are sealed with a fire-rated product.
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.
Fire rated sealant in Wooburn Common, done properly
Later work by other trades often breaks through fire stopping, especially in flats, HMOs, offices and schools. A new cable run or a replaced pipe can leave an open hole behind. We seal them with a product tested for that kind of gap. If you have holes left by a change of layout and gaps filled with a product that isn’t fire-rated, we can help, on service penetrations, flats & HMOs and plasterboard & masonry alike.
Somewhere as small as Wooburn Common, 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.
You get a 12-month guarantee, the same in Wooburn Common as everywhere else we work.

What we are called out for in Wooburn Common
In some buildings the gap was filled with the wrong thing in the first place: ordinary expanding foam, standard silicone or decorators’ caulk in a place that needed a tested fire seal. It looks sealed, but it is not fire-rated.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment
- Fire stopping disturbed by later work
- Cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant
- Holes left by a change of layout
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Wooburn Green Primary School, fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.

How to look after the new joints
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Include fire stopping when you schedule refits
- Do not fill fire-stopping gaps with ordinary foam or silicone
- Keep photos of seals that will be hidden
- Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks
Don’t drill through or remove a fire seal without putting it back properly. If you need new services through a sealed wall, plan the fire stopping as part of the job.
A gap left open in a fire-resisting wall or floor lets smoke spread in ways the building wasn’t designed for. Closing it is normally a straightforward job.
Commercial buildings in Wooburn Common
Workplaces and the common parts of blocks of flats in England need a fire risk assessment under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, and gaps around services are often picked up there. We apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details.
Rented homes near Bourne End station change hands often, and any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product. For buildings such as Church of St Paul, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.

The process
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. In a small place like Wooburn Common, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- Before starting, we go through the specification or action list with you.
- Each gap is measured and its substrate and service noted.
- Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out and the gap cleaned.
- The specified fire-rated sealant goes in over any backing its detail requires.
- We hand over a list of locations and products.
How to prepare
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Why act early in Wooburn Common
For some gaps, sealant is not the right answer and another system is needed. Large holes, cable bundles and plastic pipes can call for batts, collars or wraps. We will say so if a gap needs something other than sealant. Older cottages and farmhouses around Wooburn Common can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.
