Workplaces and buildings in Ardleigh Green
Commercial buildings in London often have strict access rules and limited loading, so out-of-hours working can be arranged where needed. Workplaces and the common parts of blocks of flats in England need a fire risk assessment under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, and gaps around services are often picked up there. We work to the specification you are given, installing the product to its tested details.
For landlords with property near Gidea Park station, fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through. For buildings such as All Saints, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building. As a London address, Ardleigh Green can be tricky for parking: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

Fire rated sealant in Ardleigh Green, done properly
We do not assess buildings or decide what fire stopping is needed; that comes from your fire risk assessor, designer or building control. What we do is apply the right product to that specification, properly and neatly. If you’re dealing with cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant and gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs, we can put it right, on pipe & cable gaps, plasterboard & masonry and service penetrations alike.
London’s offices, shops, hotels, student accommodation and blocks of flats all have joints to look after, from washroom silicone to fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables passing through walls. Out-of-hours working can be arranged where a building in Ardleigh Green can’t close.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Greater London.

Can I do it myself?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Your questions about fire rated sealant in Ardleigh Green
Do you work for landlords with property near Gidea Park station?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Do you cover Ardleigh Green for fire rated sealant?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Ardleigh Green is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before applying anything new.
Which products do you use?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice, and we will explain our choice.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No. Fresh sealant does not stick to old sealant, and it traps any mould or water underneath. We remove it all first.
How long does the job take?
As a guide, most jobs take a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. Bigger jobs take longer.
Do you provide details of the products used?
Yes. We record the locations we’ve sealed and the products used.
Is there any odour?
Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.

Aftercare tips
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Tell trades working in the building that fire seals must be put back
- Keep the record of products and locations with your fire safety documents
- Don’t paint over fire sealant until it has cured
- Never patch a fire seal with standard sealant
Don’t drill through or remove a fire seal without putting it back properly. If you need new services through a sealed wall, plan the fire stopping as part of the job.
If a fire risk assessment has flagged a gap, do not leave it for the next one. Get it sealed and recorded so you can show it was dealt with.
How the job changes by surface
Service penetrations
Wherever a service goes through a fire-resisting wall or floor, there’s a gap around it. The sealant is chosen for what passes through and how wide the gap is.
Linear gaps
A linear joint may need to allow for movement as well as fire. We choose a product and depth that suit the gap and the movement, following the tested detail.
How it works
When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. The work usually takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. Many London jobs are in flats, so we come ready for stairs, narrow hallways and shared entrances. If the building has a concierge, managing agent or access rules, tell us when you book.
- We start with the survey or action list, checking the size and surfaces of every gap.
- Old or unsuitable sealant is cut out and the gap cleaned.
- Backing or fill is fitted where the product’s tested detail calls for it.
- We apply the fire-rated or intumescent sealant to the specified depth and tool it.
- We record the locations and products used for your records.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
