Linear gaps

Masonry and concrete
Masonry is dusty and porous, so preparation matters. The gap is cleaned and backed where required before applying the sealant.
How we handle fire rated sealant in Fairlop
Landlords, managing agents and facilities teams use us for the sealant items on a fire risk assessment. Send us the list or the survey and we will quote for the fire-rated sealant work on it. Typical jobs include fire seals that have cracked with movement and unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall, across flats & HMOs, door frames and linear gaps. Whether you are looking for a local mastic man, a sealant applicator or a sealant contractor in Fairlop, Mr Mastic can help.
In London’s blocks of flats, service risers and common parts have pipes and cables passing through walls and floors. In Fairlop, building managers may need both fire-rated sealant around those openings and new sealant in shared washrooms.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Workplaces and buildings in Fairlop
Many London buildings have tight access and loading restrictions, and out-of-hours working is possible to arrange. 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 apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details.
Schools such as Fairlop Primary School are buildings too, and service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment. Letting a property close to Seven Kings station? Then any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St Francis of Assisi, older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking.

The process
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are for a typical job. In a London area like Fairlop, the main things to plan are parking and access: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space, which floor we’re working on and whether there’s a lift.
- 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.
- Where the tested detail needs backing or fill, we fit it.
- Fire-rated or intumescent sealant is applied to the right depth and tooled.
- Finally, we list where we worked and what we used, for your records.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Fairlop: your questions answered
I let a flat near Seven Kings station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just phone 07833 053749 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Is Fairlop in your area for fire rated sealant?
Yes, Fairlop is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just ring 07833 053749 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear price.
Can you work in occupied buildings?
Yes. We regularly work in flats, HMOs, schools and offices while they’re in use. Early starts or out-of-hours work can be arranged if that suits the building.
Will it make a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints.
Do you certify the fire stopping?
We don’t issue ratings or certificates ourselves. What’s required is set by your assessor or designer, and the product’s tested details show what it achieves, and we install to them.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes. All our work carries our one-year guarantee.
Do you do fire sealant around door frames?
Yes, if the gap is within the product’s tested range. We seal the frame-to-wall gap, not the door itself.
Is intumescent sealant the same as fire-rated sealant?
Intumescent means it swells when heated to help seal the gap. It’s one type of fire-rated sealant; which product suits depends on the gap, the substrate and the service.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Fairlop
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
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.
Can I do it myself?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.

What else we do in Fairlop
What affects the quote in Fairlop
We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. What we look at:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- The size of the job
- Whether the work is at height
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
Asking for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- The rough size of the job
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is, and add photos by email if you can.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Sign-off of the building, which sits with building control or your assessor
- Deciding what fire stopping a building needs
- Walls or floors that weren’t built to resist fire
Not sure which it is? You can call 07833 053749 or drop us an email and we will tell you honestly.
What we seal
- Service penetrations
- Pipe & cable gaps
- Plasterboard & masonry
- Linear gaps
- Flats & HMOs
- Door frames
How to look after the new joints
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t fill fire-stopping gaps with ordinary foam or silicone
- Photograph sealed gaps before they’re covered up
- Ask which product was used before you paint
- Tell trades working in the building that fire seals must be put back
Leave the sealant to cure fully before painting near it. Some fire-rated sealants can be painted and some cannot and we will tell you which one you have.
A flagged gap shouldn’t wait for the next assessment. Have it sealed, then keep the record so you can show it was dealt with.
