Fire rated sealant in Woolhampton

Fire stopping only performs as intended if it’s done to the detail: 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. Typical jobs include unsealed gaps around fire door frames and gaps left after a refit or conversion, across pipe & cable gaps, linear gaps and service penetrations.

For holiday lets, converted business premises or a community building near Woolhampton, washroom and kitchen sealant and any fire-rated joints need the same attention as anywhere.

You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Do you do fire sealant around door frames?

Yes. We seal the gap between the frame and the wall with a suitable fire-rated product, to the product’s details. The door leaf and its hardware need a door specialist.

How much does fire rated sealant cost in Woolhampton?

Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. For a quick quote, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a short description of the job.

Do you take on fire stopping in schools and offices?

Yes. We work in flats, HMOs, schools, offices and other commercial buildings, including occupied ones. We agree access and the order of work with you first.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything isn’t right with the work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Will you assess my building’s fire safety?

No. Your fire risk assessor, designer or building control decides that. We apply fire-rated sealant to the requirements they set.

Should I try DIY first?

You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it does not work out, we can redo it.

What we do, step by step

There’s no need to move everything out before we come, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access for a typical job. In a small place like Woolhampton, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. We go through the gaps on your list or survey and check each one’s size and substrate.
  2. We remove any old or unsuitable filler and clean the gap.
  3. Backing or fill is fitted where the product’s tested detail calls for it.
  4. We apply the fire-rated or intumescent sealant to the specified depth and tool it.
  5. We record the locations and products used for your records.

Before we arrive

  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
  • Mention any tricky access
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Advice

Workplaces and buildings in Woolhampton

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 apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details.

For buildings such as Church of St Peter, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building. Rented homes near Midgham station change hands often, and new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant.

How the job changes by surface

Masonry and concrete

For masonry and concrete, we use a product tested in that substrate. The gap is cleaned of dust first so the seal has something sound to bond to.

Flats and HMOs

Working in occupied flats needs some planning. We agree access to each flat and the common parts before work begins to keep disruption down.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after new joints is easy:

  • Flag any open gap you spot round a pipe or cable
  • Ask every contractor to reseal any fire stopping they disturb
  • Do not paint over fire sealant until it has cured
  • Do not fill fire-stopping gaps with ordinary foam or silicone

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.

An open gap isn’t only a fire issue: they also let noise, draughts and sometimes pests through. Dealing with them early helps with all of these.

Signs you need fire rated sealant in Woolhampton

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 may look fine, but it isn’t a fire-rated seal.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls
  • New service routes left unsealed after building work
  • Unsealed gaps around fire door frames
  • Sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Woolhampton C.E. Primary School, gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices.

What your quote should include

  • What product goes in the joint
  • Is the old sealant removed completely?
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether VAT is included

Our hiring checklist

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order.

From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.

Why act early in Woolhampton

Sealant isn’t the fix for every opening. Large holes, cable bundles and plastic pipes can call for batts, collars or wraps. If a gap isn’t suitable for sealant, we will tell you. Around Woolhampton, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first.

Why book with us

  • Old sealant always removed completely
  • Neat joints and a tidy finish
  • Trusted Arbo and Everbuild sealants
  • Full insurance on every job
