About our fire stopping in Froyle
Fire-rated sealant suits many small service penetrations: copper and steel pipes, cables and some small ducts where the tested detail allows. Other openings need collars, wraps, batts, pillows or boards. If the detail calls for something other than sealant, we say so rather than force sealant into it. Site teams most often ask us about openings left by services added after handover and snag lists that include open service penetrations, across cable penetrations, joints between fire-resisting walls and floors and service gaps in risers. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Froyle? We have been sealing commercial buildings since 2005.
For a smaller site near Froyle, we plan to do all the penetrations in one go, with the specification and photos sent in advance. Design and sign-off belong to the designer or building control; we install what’s specified.
Building owners and contractors get the same cover: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we are upfront about that.

Owners, agents and contractors
Agents, factors and owners’ representatives all follow the same route: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed. We can agree access arrangements and keyholder contacts beforehand.
Main contractors use us as their sealant subcontractor, on new build and refurbishment alike. We work to your programme, your specification and your site rules.
When it isn’t the sealant
Being straight saves everyone time. New sealant won’t cure:
- Walls or floors that aren’t fire-resisting to begin with
- Signing off or certifying a building’s fire stopping
- Plastic pipes whose detail calls for a collar or wrap
If you’re not sure, just ring 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Your questions answered
Can work in a care setting near Froyle go ahead while residents are there?
Yes. We agree rooms and times with the manager and work a few areas at a time. Tell us about any infection-control or safeguarding requirements and we’ll work to them.
How does the removal of BS 476 from Approved Document B affect fire-rated sealing in Froyle?
From 2 September 2029, Approved Document B drops its BS 476 references in favour of BS EN 13501-2 classification, with transitional arrangements. Our part doesn’t change: the specified product, to its tested detail.
Can you quote from photos?
That depends on the size and complexity of the job. Straightforward work can often be priced from photos and measurements, and bigger or more complex jobs typically get a visit.
What do you charge?
It depends on the job: the volume of work, the access, the specified product and how it’s phased. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll price it properly.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and the quote will be based on it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes. It runs for twelve months and covers how we prepared and sealed the joints, but not damage, misuse or other trades’ work.
What happens if old sealant might contain asbestos?
Managing asbestos is the dutyholder’s responsibility, so for older buildings we ask for the asbestos register first. Work pauses if suspect material is found, until it has been tested.
When to bring in a specialist
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are where general trades tend to cut corners.

What else we do in Froyle
Penetration seals near Froyle
Froyle lies roughly 42 miles out from central London. Offices around the capital are refitted often, and the cabling that follows can breach fire-resisting walls; the gaps need the specified seal. Two care or nursing homes sit less than 2 miles from Froyle. Where new services have gone through compartment walls in a care setting, the gaps need the specified product. We install fire-rated sealant to the tested detail where it is specified.
On a site such as Bentley Business Park, which lies east of Froyle, every fit-out that runs new services through a compartment wall leaves penetrations to seal with the specified product. In a building such as Church of St Mary of the Assumption, any service penetration through a fire-resisting wall should be sealed to the specified detail. On a hospital site such as Alton Community Hospital, which lies south-west of Froyle, fire-rated sealant goes in where the specification calls for it, with the work planned around the estates team’s permits.
Froyle is about 4 miles north-east of Alton, in Hampshire. We cover commercial sites throughout Froyle, whether it’s a single job or part of a planned programme. Froyle is one of 723 places in Hampshire on our list. Sites around Reading have their own page, roughly 18 miles from Froyle.

Different surfaces, different methods
Linear joints
Joints at the top of partitions may need to move as the slab above deflects. The specified product and backing for that movement are what goes in, with no gaps along the run.
Risers and ceiling voids
Service risers and the voids above ceilings are where openings collect. Access is often tight, so we agree it with you in advance along with any permits your site needs.
Our process
Our CSCS-carded applicators arrive with the sealants, primers and backing rod the job calls for. Any old material is cut back to clean, sound faces, primer goes on where the manufacturer specifies it, and each bead is tooled to a neat concave finish. Smaller jobs around Froyle can be grouped with others nearby, which keeps travel down. You will have a fixed quote before work starts.
- First we confirm the product and tested details named in the specification.
- Openings are measured and grouped by detail.
- Old or wrong materials are cut out.
- Mineral wool or other backing is fitted where required.
- We gun the sealant in to the specified depth around each service and tool it.
- Completed areas are checked with you, with the records agreed when we quoted.
Getting the site ready
- Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs
- Arrange parking or a loading space
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
Request a quote
Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints and a fixed quote comes back to you. Where a site visit makes more sense, we’ll arrange one.
Related advice
Keeping the joints sound
Cleaning and maintenance staff play a part too. Pass these on to them:
- Settle who seals which penetrations at the start of a project
- Report damaged or disturbed seals as soon as they’re spotted
- Foam or ordinary sealant is never a fire-seal repair
- Record which product was used where
During planned inspections, look at seals in risers, cupboards and voids. Watch for cracked sealant, new services with no seal and openings that have grown.
Make reporting new openings part of every permit to work in service areas. Small habits like this stop openings building up.
