Fire stopping for businesses in South Hayling
Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.
Doing it in-house
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.
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class.
Fire stopping in South Hayling
On a fit-out or refurbishment, we follow the services contractors floor by floor. To price a package, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email with the schedule or marked-up drawings. Tell us what records you need and we will confirm with the quote. If you have improvised or mixed-product fire seals and unsealed openings around new pipes and cables, we can help. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: on jobs in South Hayling, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
In places the size of South Hayling, fire-resisting walls and floors are found in schools, care homes, health centres and mixed-use buildings. Specified fire-rated sealant goes around new services there, built to match the manufacturer’s detail.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

Aftercare for building managers
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Check with the data sheet before painting over fire sealant
- Have penetrations checked while they can still be seen
- Put resealing into every M&E and fit-out package
- Don’t let anyone top up a fire seal with the wrong product
Give the sealant its full cure time before ceilings, boxing or decoration go over it. Some fire-rated sealants accept paint and some don’t, and the data sheet says which.
On fit-outs, get the fire-stopping specification agreed before the services go in. The designer can then choose details that suit the services planned.
Why deal with it now?
A seal that doesn’t match its tested detail gives false comfort. The fix is to remove it and reinstall to the detail, and doing it once, properly, is cheaper. Over time, UV, weather and movement wear any sealant out. Replacing it before it fails keeps water out.
A quote for service penetrations depends on how many there are, their condition and the access. Ask us for a fixed quote.

Different surfaces, different methods
Linear joints
Linear joints run along the head of a wall, at a slab edge or between two fire-resisting elements. BS EN 1366-4 testing sets the joint widths, depths, backing and movement a seal covers, and we work within it.
Masonry and concrete
Core-drilled holes are neat; broken-out ones rarely are. The gap is measured at the widest point against the detail’s limits.

Questions about South Hayling
Can you seal penetrations in a hotel in South Hayling after a refit?
Yes, where fire-rated sealant is the specified product. Each seal follows the tested detail, and rooms are done in turn.
Is a hospital such as St James Hospital somewhere you can work?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
Will you quote for a small job?
Single areas, one-off repairs and whole buildings are all quoted the same way: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed.
Can you send site paperwork?
Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote.
Can one quote cover more than one building?
Yes. Multi-site work and planned programmes are a core part of the service, with each site phased to suit its occupants.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, which helps with supplier vetting.
Do you cover South Hayling?
Yes. South Hayling is in our area. To discuss a job, ring 01277 525 020 or email us.
Our process
On arrival, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Everything around the joints gets protected before any cutting starts, with the work itself usually taking a single visit for a short list of penetrations, or a phased programme for a whole building. What matters most for a job in South Hayling is a clear list of what needs doing, so send photos of each area. A fixed quote follows.
- We ask for the product and detail your designer has specified.
- Openings are measured and grouped by detail.
- Old or wrong materials are cut out.
- Where the detail needs backing, it goes in at the stated depth.
- 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.
What we need from you
- Point out any areas we must not close
- Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
Quotes
Quotes are fixed against the scope you send, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To start the process, call 01277 525 020 or email us.

Service penetrations in South Hayling buildings
Several hotels sit less than 2 miles from South Hayling. Bedroom-to-corridor walls in hotels are normally fire-resisting, so new cabling or pipework through them has to be sealed to the tested detail. Central London is about 62 miles from South Hayling. Offices around the capital are refitted often, and the cabling that follows can breach fire-resisting walls; the gaps need the specified seal.
Hotels such as Newton House Hotel, 0.6 miles to the north-west of South Hayling, rely on fire-resisting walls between bedrooms and corridors, and refits that add services leave penetrations to seal where fire-rated sealant is specified. On a site such as Furniss Business Centre, 0.9 miles to the north-west of South Hayling, every fit-out that runs new services through a compartment wall leaves penetrations to seal with the specified product. At a university such as University of Portsmouth - Langstone Campus, 2.9 miles to the west of South Hayling, labs, lecture blocks and residences are re-serviced often, so penetration seals are best checked after M&E work.

What sets the cost
These are the things that shape the price:
- The site’s rules and procedures
- Location, for remote and island sites
- The total length or number of joints
- Phasing around occupants
No two sites price the same: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.
What to include in your enquiry
A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Let us know:
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- Specification clauses that apply
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- The postcode of the building
If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we’ll price against exactly what is specified. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photographs and a few notes.
