Fire stopping in Hazeley
No fire sealant works on its own: the evidence covers a specific product, wall or floor type, service, gap, depth and backing. Before we seal anything, we check the opening against the detail it is meant to follow. The enquiries we see most involve unsealed openings around new pipes and cables and head-of-wall gaps with no fire seal, across service gaps in risers, linear gaps at wall heads and cable penetrations. Most enquiries from Hazeley start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we are there and tell you what we find.
Barn and farm-building conversions near places like Hazeley often combine new partitions with old walls. A penetration seal only performs as tested if product, substrate, service, gap and depth all match the detail.
We stand by our work: 12 months, guaranteed. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant.

Do you need fire stopping in Hazeley?
A common fault is a product that was never fire-rated in the first place: builders’ foam or ordinary silicone used to fill a hole. The opening looks sealed but has no fire test evidence behind it, so it has to come out.
Things that usually lead to an enquiry:
- Non-fire-rated filler around services
- Old intumescent sealant that has split away
- Seals disturbed by maintenance and left open
- Openings left by services added after handover
In a building such as Mattingley Church, any service penetration through a fire-resisting wall should be sealed to the specified detail.

What we can’t put right
Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. These need a different solution:
- Reviewing a building’s overall fire safety
- Large openings beyond what any sealant detail covers
- Issuing fire ratings or certificates for seals
If you are not sure, just call 01277 525 020 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

On site: what to expect
Before we leave any area, the masking comes off, the area is cleaned and every joint is checked. Where the sealant needs time to cure before use, we tell you and sign the area. If others near Hazeley need work, visits can be combined. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.
- We read the specification, drawings or penetration schedule you send and raise any questions before we price.
- On site, each opening is checked against the tested detail it is meant to follow.
- Unsuitable fillers and loose debris are taken out of each opening.
- Mineral wool or other backing goes in wherever the detail asks.
- Fire-rated or intumescent sealant is gunned in to the specified depth, then tooled.
- Openings that need a collar, wrap, batt or other product are flagged to you rather than filled with sealant.
Before we start on site

- Agree which areas must stay open

Hazeley: questions and answers
What does the BS 476 change mean for fire-rated sealant in Hazeley?
Approved Document B loses its BS 476 references from 2 September 2029, and BS EN 13501-2 becomes the route, subject to transitional arrangements. Our part doesn’t change: the specified product, to its tested detail.
Is Hazeley too small for you to travel to?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. London and every South East county are within our area. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Do you offer coloured sealant?
It depends on the product. Some ranges offer many colours, others very few, so we’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product with the quote.
Is your workmanship covered by a guarantee?
Yes, for 12 months. If a joint fails because of how we installed it, we come back and put it right.
What’s the quickest route to a quote?
The quote form is the simplest route, though you can also phone 01277 525 020 or email the details over. Include photos or drawings if you have them.
How long does a typical visit take?
It depends on the scope, but the work usually takes a single visit for a short list of penetrations, or a phased programme for a whole building. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we will give you a timescale with the quote.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No, never. Sealing over old material is one of the classic causes of early joint failure, so everything comes out first.
Where services cross fire walls in Hazeley
For England, the fire stopping of penetrations is dealt with in Approved Document B. References to the older BS 476 classes are being removed from it from 2 September 2029, after which the European classification, BS EN 13501-2, is the route, subject to transitional arrangements. Our part stays the same: the specified product, installed to its tested detail. At about 38 miles from central London, Hazeley is within reach of the capital. Office refits around the commuter belt bring new cabling through fire-resisting walls, and the gaps need sealing with the specified product.
For a building at a site such as Brocketts Business Park (1.7 miles south-east of Hazeley), a check of penetration seals after each fit-out is good practice. Large healthcare estates like Fleet Community Hospital, 4.6 miles to the south-east of Hazeley, change their services often, so penetration seals are worth checking after M&E work.
Hazeley is about 4 miles west of Yateley, in Hampshire. If you’re looking for fire stopping in Hazeley, we can help. Hazeley is one of 723 places in Hampshire on our list for service penetrations. For work in that direction, see our Reading page, about 8 miles away.
We take on service penetrations across the RG27 postcode area, for business premises of every kind. For a building on Plough Lane and Red Hill or nearby, we can quote for service penetrations. We also cover Hound Green (1 mile west), Bramshill (1 mile north), Mattingley (1 mile south-west), Heckfield (1 mile north-west) and Heckfield Heath (2 miles north-west) for service penetrations. Bigger towns within reach include Basingstoke (9 miles south-west), Farnborough (8 miles east), Fleet (6 miles south-east), Aldershot (9 miles south-east), Alton (12 miles south) and Yateley (4 miles east).
Near you in Hazeley
Locally, jobs take us to sites close to The Mutton pub, among other places. For rail, the closest station is Winchfield station, about 3.3 miles south of the centre. A little further out are West Green House Agricultural Museum (1.9 miles south) and Fleet Community Hospital (4.6 miles south-east). For a walk, there’s Hitches Hill and Dogmersfield Lake.
What happens if it’s left?
Leave a penetration open and smoke and fire can cross into the next compartment far earlier than intended. Putting it right is usually a modest job when the openings are accessible. Left until ceilings are closed or a tenant moves in, the same work costs more access and more disruption. Older rural buildings around Hazeley move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.

After the work
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. In particular:
- Report damaged or disturbed seals as soon as they’re spotted
- Ask the designer to confirm details early on refits
- Keep product data and details in the fire safety file
- Don’t let anyone top up a fire seal with the wrong product
Never top up a fire seal with foam, ordinary silicone or filler. Repairs need the same product and detail as the original, or a new specification from the designer.
Make reporting new openings part of every permit to work in service areas. Small habits like this stop openings building up.
