Fire rated sealant in Connaught Village

Fire rated sealant in Connaught Village

Bigger jobs can be worked through in stages, flat by flat or floor by floor, with each location and product recorded. It gives you a list to keep with the building’s fire safety documents. Typical jobs include holes left by a change of layout and fire seals that have cracked with movement, on plasterboard & masonry, door frames and service penetrations.

Across London, offices, shops, hotels, student halls and blocks of flats all need sealant work from time to time, whether that is washroom resealing or fire-rated sealant around service openings. Out-of-hours working can be arranged where a building in Connaught Village can’t close.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right with it, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

What we’re called out for in Connaught Village

In some buildings the gap was filled with the wrong thing in the first place: general-purpose foam, everyday silicone or caulk where a fire-rated seal was needed. It looks sealed, but it isn’t fire-rated.

If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:

  • Open holes round services passing through fire walls
  • Ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed
  • Unsealed gaps around fire door frames
  • Fire seals that have cracked with movement

As a London address, Connaught Village can be tricky for parking: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book.

Questions to ask before booking

  • Which colour the sealant will be
  • What guarantee comes with the work
  • What the cure time is
  • What the quote includes, VAT included or not

Choosing a sealant specialist

Connaught Village questions

Can you help a landlord with a rental near London Paddington station?

Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders, and several properties can go on one quote. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.

Do you work in hotels near Connaught Village?

Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. A room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.

Do you take out the old sealant first?

Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.

Are you ARBOMaster approved?

Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator and we’re fully insured too.

Which products do you use?

Each joint gets the product that suits it. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice.

Is it messy?

No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.

Can you match the sealant colour?

In most cases you can choose. We’ll tell you which colours the right product comes in.

What should I tell you?

Only a few details: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. Then ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

When it is not the sealant

Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:

  • Openings too large for sealant, which need batts, boards or another system
  • Fire risk assessments, which need a qualified assessor
  • Issuing a fire rating or certificate for a building

If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we seal

  • Service penetrations
  • Flats & HMOs
  • Door frames
  • Linear gaps
  • Plasterboard & masonry
  • Pipe & cable gaps

Surface by surface

Door frames

Frame gaps are usually hidden behind the architrave. We seal any open gap to the product’s tested details before the trim goes back.

Plasterboard walls

Plasterboard partitions are common in flats, offices and conversions. We use a product tested in that kind of wall for each gap size.

Looking after it afterwards

No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:

  • Include fire stopping when you schedule refits
  • Never patch a fire seal with standard sealant
  • Get damaged fire seals looked at promptly
  • Check whether a sealant can be painted before decorating over it

Leave the sealant to cure fully before painting near it. Not every fire-rated sealant takes paint and we will tell you which one you have.

Small gaps around services are simple to deal with while there are only a few. Over time, more work adds more holes.

Fire rated sealant in Connaught Village: local notes

Community buildings like Church of St John the Evangelist are part of the picture too: service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building. Letting a property close to London Paddington station? Then any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.

What happens on the day

There’s no need to move everything out before we come, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are for a typical job. In Connaught Village, as in most of London, parking needs a little planning. It helps if you can point us to a visitor permit or a bay close to the door.

  1. We plan the order of work and access, floor by floor or flat by flat.
  2. Old, damaged or unsuitable sealant is removed.
  3. Gaps are cleaned of dust and loose material.
  4. The fire-rated or intumescent sealant is applied and tooled to the tested detail.
  5. Locations and products are written up and any gaps unsuitable for sealant are flagged.

Getting ready for the visit

  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
  • Mention any parking rules near the property

Landlord and commercial work in Connaught Village

A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.

What affects the quote in Connaught Village

There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. What we look at:

  • The size of the job
  • The product the joint needs
  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • Any mould that needs treating

The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask a few questions first and give you a clear price before any work starts.

Photos help, but a description is a good start. Try to tell us:

  • The type of property
  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • The rough size of the job
  • Where the property is
