How to look after the new joints
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Report cracked or damaged seals as soon as you notice them
- Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks
- 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
Let contractors know where fire stopping has been done, and make sure anything they disturb is resealed with a suitable product. Later work is a common cause of damaged fire stopping.
A flagged gap shouldn’t wait for the next assessment. Have it sealed, then keep the record so the item can be closed.
Fire rated sealant in Chadwell Heath
A gap around a door frame, a linear joint at the head of a wall and a hole round a pipe are each sealed differently. We check the size and the substrate before choosing the product, then apply it to the depth its tested detail calls for. We work on plasterboard & masonry, door frames and flats & HMOs, and common reasons people get in touch are old fire sealant that has split or come away and open joints along the top of partitions.
In London’s blocks of flats, service risers and common parts have pipes and cables passing through walls and floors. For managing agents and building owners in Chadwell Heath, that can mean fire-rated sealant around service openings as well as resealing in shared washrooms and kitchens.
All our work comes with a 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Greater London.

Surface by surface
Linear gaps
Linear gaps run along the head of walls, at floor edges and between panels. They’re sealed with a fire-rated sealant over backing where the detail calls for it.
Service penetrations
Service penetrations are where new gaps often appear. Old or unsuitable filler comes out before the right sealant goes in over any backing the detail calls for.
Questions from Chadwell Heath
Is Chadwell Heath in your area for fire rated sealant?
Yes, Chadwell Heath is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
Can parking be tricky for a visit in Chadwell Heath?
It can be, so it helps to tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. That way the visit can be planned around it.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No, it won’t last. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
Can you match the sealant colour?
Most of the time, yes. We will tell you which colours the right product comes in.
Is it worth trying it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
Do you certify the fire stopping?
Ratings and certificates are not something we issue. The performance comes from the product’s tested details and the specification from your assessor or designer, and we install to them.
Can you work in occupied buildings?
Yes. We regularly work in flats, HMOs, schools and offices while they’re in use, with access planned around residents or staff. Early starts or out-of-hours work can be arranged.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are glad to have it sorted.
What happens if it’s left?
Fire-rated sealants are less forgiving than ordinary ones. How it’s installed changes how it performs, and we work to the product details every time. Damp from a failed joint spreads quietly in older London brickwork and timber, and once it shows in Chadwell Heath, the repair is bigger than a sealant job.
Combining jobs into one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We will give you a clear price for the lot.

Should I try it myself first?
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

Commercial buildings in Chadwell Heath
Many London buildings have tight access and loading restrictions, so out-of-hours working can be arranged where needed. 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, which is often where open fire-stopping gaps are first noticed. We work to the specification you are given, installing the product to its tested details.
As a London address, Chadwell Heath can be tricky for parking: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway. If you let a flat or house near Chadwell Heath station, new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant.
