Commercial buildings in Woodway
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’re given, installing the product to its tested details.
Community buildings like Church of St Michael are part of the picture too: older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking. Letting a property close to Cholsey station? Then new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant.

What else we do in Woodway
Leave it or put it right?
If an assessor has flagged gaps, it makes sense to close them before the next review. Getting them done and written up means you can show the action was taken. In a small place like Woodway, 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 is generally more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.

Joints and surfaces we work on
- Plasterboard & masonry
- Service penetrations
- Linear gaps
- Door frames
- Flats & HMOs
- Pipe & cable gaps
What we are called out for in Woodway
Movement in the structure can open gaps too: a seal that cracks or pulls away leaves a path for smoke. Damage from cleaning, knocks and maintenance adds to it.
The problems people normally mention when they call are:
- Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
- Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
- New service routes left unsealed after building work
- Old fire sealant that has split or come away
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Blewbury Endowed Church of England Primary School, gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices.

What we do, step by step
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. The work generally takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building.

Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- Before starting, we go through the specification or action list with you.
- We measure every gap and note what it’s in and what passes through.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the work
- Tell us about any water getting in
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
