How we handle fire rated sealant in Baker Street

Where services or frames pass through a fire-resisting wall or floor, the gap around them needs a fire-rated seal. Each gap is sealed to the product maker’s tested detail for its size and substrate, and we can record what went where. We are often asked to deal with unsealed gaps around fire door frames and open holes round services passing through fire walls, across service penetrations, flats & HMOs and linear gaps.

For holiday lets, converted business premises or a community building near Baker Street, washroom and kitchen sealant and any fire-rated joints need the same attention as anywhere.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

What happens on the day

When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. In a small place like Baker Street, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We begin by agreeing the list of gaps from your assessor’s or designer’s requirements.
  2. Each gap is measured and its substrate and service noted.
  3. Any non-fire-rated filler is removed.
  4. We fit backing where needed and apply the fire-rated sealant to depth.
  5. Every location is recorded with the product used for your records.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking restrictions
  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Your questions about fire rated sealant in Baker Street

Will you come out to Baker Street?

Yes, Baker Street is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

Is Baker Street in your area for fire rated sealant?

Yes, Baker Street is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job.

Can you match the sealant colour?

Most of the time, yes. We’ll explain which colours are available.

Which products do you use?

Each joint gets the product that suits it. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice, and we will tell you what we’re using.

Are you an approved applicator?

Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status and we’re fully insured too.

Can I use normal mastic around a pipe through a fire wall?

No. Where a fire-rated seal is needed, it has to be a product tested for that use, installed to its details.

Can I do it myself?

Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.

Will you assess my building’s fire safety?

No. That is for a fire risk assessor, designer or building control. Our job is applying the sealant to their specification.

Leave it or put it right?

An unsealed gap lets smoke and fire get round a wall that was built to hold them back. Sealing it properly restores what the wall was there to do, and the work involved is often modest. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Baker Street, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before work begins, so you know where you stand.

When to call us in Baker Street

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.

People normally contact us after spotting one of these:

  • Linear gaps at the head of walls
  • Unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall
  • Joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey
  • Damaged fire sealant left by other trades

For buildings such as St Giles & All Saints Church, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.

What to look for in a quote

  • Are they insured?
  • Whether VAT is included
  • What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
  • How the colour is chosen

How to choose a mastic man

DIY sealant or a professional job?

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.

How the job changes by surface

Service penetrations

New gaps tend to show up where services have been added. We clean out what’s there and reseal to the right depth over any backing the detail calls for.

Plasterboard walls

Holes in plasterboard are often cut roughly for services. Gaps that are too big for sealant alone need a different detail and we will flag it.

Commercial buildings in Baker Street

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.

Rented homes near Grays station change hands often, and any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product. Managing a site like Orsett Church of England Primary School? Then service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.
