Fire rated sealant in Woodmancote
Fire stopping only performs as intended if it’s done to the detail: correct depth, correct backing and a product suited to the surfaces. That detail is what we take care over. If you have open holes round services passing through fire walls and door frames with gaps between frame and wall, we can help, whatever the surface.
Somewhere as small as Woodmancote, 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.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once the job is done.

Commercial buildings in Woodmancote
Workplaces and the common parts of blocks of flats in England need a fire risk assessment under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, 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.
For landlords with property near Hassocks station, new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as The Parish Church of St Peter, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.

What else we do in Woodmancote
What happens if it’s left?
Fire-rated sealants are less forgiving than ordinary ones. How it’s installed changes how it performs, so we follow the maker’s details on every gap. In a small place like Woodmancote, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Combining jobs into one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We’ll give you a clear price for the lot.
What you get with us
- Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
- ARBOMaster approved applicator
- Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over

What the job involves on each surface
Plasterboard walls
Many fire-resisting walls in flats, offices and conversions are plasterboard. The sealant has to be one tested in plasterboard for the gap we’re sealing.
Service penetrations
Service penetrations are where new gaps often appear. Old or unsuitable filler comes out before the right sealant goes in with backing where the detail needs it.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
What we do, step by step
There is not much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The work itself takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. Somewhere like Woodmancote needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We begin by agreeing the list of gaps from your assessor’s or designer’s requirements.
- Each gap is measured and its substrate and service noted.
- Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out and the faces cleaned.
- The specified fire-rated sealant goes in over any backing its detail requires.
- We hand over a list of locations and products for your files.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

Related advice
What sealant work cannot fix
We’d rather tell you now than do work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:
- Doors that are not fire doors in the first place
- A wall that isn’t a fire-resisting element to begin with
- Sign-off of the building, which sits with building control or your assessor
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.

- Door frames
- Flats & HMOs
- Service penetrations
- Pipe & cable gaps
- Plasterboard & masonry
- Linear gaps
Keeping the joints in good condition
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Check whether a sealant can be painted before decorating over it
- Keep the record of products and locations with your fire safety documents
- Don’t fill fire-stopping gaps with ordinary foam or silicone
- Include hidden areas like risers in routine checks
File the record of locations and products with your fire safety paperwork. It helps whoever checks the building next.
Leave a fire-stopping gap open and smoke can move through the building much more easily. Closing it is usually a straightforward job.
