Fire Rated Sealant in Crews Hill
We cover Crews Hill for intumescent and fire-rated sealant around gaps, frames and service penetrations. Old sealant removed completely, joints prepared properly.
- Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
- Open joints along the top of partitions
- Cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant
Fire rated sealant in Crews Hill
Ordinary silicone or decorators’ caulk in a fire-stopping gap is not a fire-rated seal. We cut out the wrong material and the gap is resealed with a product tested for that use. If you are dealing with open gaps behind door architraves and gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
London’s offices, shops, hotels, student accommodation and blocks of flats all have joints to look after, whether that is washroom resealing or fire-rated sealant around service openings. Out-of-hours working can be arranged where a building in Crews Hill cannot close.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

What happens on the day
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and explain the cure time. The work normally takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access, depending on the amount of work. In a London area like Crews Hill, the main things to plan are parking and access: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space, which floor we are working on and whether there’s a lift.
- Before starting, we go through the specification or action list with you.
- We measure every gap and note what it’s in and what passes through.
- Any non-fire-rated filler is removed and the gap cleaned.
- We fit backing where needed and apply the fire-rated sealant to depth.

DIY versus a professional finish
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
Surface by surface
Flats and HMOs
Flats and HMOs rely on fire separation between homes and the common parts. We seal the gaps your assessor has identified, flat by flat if needed.
Service penetrations
Service penetrations are where new gaps often appear. Old or unsuitable filler comes out before the right sealant goes in.

What else we do in Crews Hill
What affects the cost of fire rated sealant
There’s no set price list, because no two jobs are the same. The quote depends on:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The product the joint needs
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask about the job first and give you a clear quote before any work starts.
What to tell us for a quote
When you call or email, these details help:
- How we’d reach the joints
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
Every job is quoted individually, so the first step is telling us about yours. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details, and photos are welcome.
Do you need fire rated sealant in Crews Hill?
Gaps around door frames are easily missed. The architrave hides the gap between frame and wall, so it can be left open when a door is replaced.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant
- Gaps filled with a product that isn’t fire-rated
- Open gaps behind door architraves
- Gaps left after a refit or conversion
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of St John the Baptist, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.

Workplaces and buildings in Crews Hill
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 work to the specification you’re given, installing the product to its tested details. Many London buildings have tight access and loading restrictions, and out-of-hours working is possible to arrange.
Schools such as St John's CofE Primary School are buildings too, and gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices. Letting a property close to Crews Hill station? Then new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant.
