Should I try it myself first?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
About our fire rated sealant in Wootton
A fire seal relies on being installed the way it was tested: correct depth, correct backing and a product suited to the surfaces. That’s the part we focus on. Typical jobs include gaps filled with a product that isn’t fire-rated and unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall, across pipe & cable gaps, linear gaps and plasterboard & masonry.
Community buildings, schools and small businesses around places like Wootton have washrooms and kitchens that see a lot of use. Sealant and fire-rated joints there matter as much as in any larger building.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

What happens if it’s left?
Squirting in whichever sealant is nearest does not make a fire seal. Fire-rated products are tested in set gap sizes, depths and substrates, so both the product and the method matter. In a smaller place like Wootton, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.

The process
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so there’s nothing for you to buy. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. A visit to Wootton is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- First we work through your list or survey, measuring each gap and checking what it’s formed in.
- Anything that isn’t fit for the job comes out, and the gap is cleaned.
- Backing or fill is fitted where the product’s tested detail calls for it.
- Fire-rated or intumescent sealant is applied to the right depth and tooled.
- Locations and products are noted so you have them on file.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

Commercial buildings in Wootton
If you run a hotel, guest house or holiday let in a coastal place like Wootton, heavy use in the busy months is hard on washroom and kitchen sealant, and any building work there should leave fire-rated joints made good. 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, 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.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Wootton Community Primary School, service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment. Rented homes near Ryde Esplanade station change hands often, and fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through.

Signs you need fire rated sealant in Wootton
Buildings are refitted and reconfigured over the years. A house turned into flats or an HMO, or an office split into smaller units, brings new walls, new service routes and new gaps.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Door frames with gaps between frame and wall
- Gaps filled with a product that is not fire-rated
- Gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls
- Old fire sealant that has split or come away
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St. Edmund's Church, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.

No. Ordinary silicone, caulk or foam is not tested as fire stopping. We cut it out and reseal with a fire-rated product.
