Falconwood Fire Rated Sealant
Fire-stopping gaps in Falconwood need attention? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly.
- Joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey
- Unsealed gaps around fire door frames
- Open holes round services passing through fire walls
Why deal with it now?
Doing it once, properly, beats doing it twice. If the details weren’t followed, the seal may need redoing once someone inspects it. In a flat in Falconwood, failed sealant seldom stays inside your own four walls: water can reach the neighbours below, and gaps in fire-rated joints affect the whole building.
Combining jobs into one visit is generally more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We’ll send you a clear quote for the lot.

Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Falconwood
Filling a fire-stopping gap with standard silicone or caulk does not make it fire-rated. We cut out the wrong material and reseal with a fire-rated product tested for that kind of gap. We are often asked to deal with unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall and joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey, across door frames, linear gaps and service penetrations.
Across London, offices, shops, hotels, student halls and blocks of flats all need sealant work from time to time, whether that’s washroom resealing or fire-rated sealant around service openings. Where a building in Falconwood needs to stay open, work can be planned outside normal hours.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

Aftercare tips
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Photograph sealed gaps before they’re covered up
- Plan fire stopping into any work that goes through walls or floors
- Include hidden areas like risers in routine checks
- Never patch a fire seal with standard sealant
Tell other trades that the gaps have been sealed, and make sure anything they disturb is resealed with a suitable product. A lot of damaged fire stopping comes from later work.
Any job that breaks through a wall or ceiling should include resealing. Doing it at the time avoids leaving gaps behind.
When to call us in Falconwood
If the sealant is too shallow, has the wrong backing or sits on a dusty surface, it is not installed as tested. Rushed fire stopping is common.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey
- Door frames with gaps between frame and wall
- Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
- Holes left by a change of layout
Managing a site like Bishop Ridley Church of England VA Primary School? Then fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.
What your quote should include
- When the joint can take water or movement
- What preparation is included
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
What affects the quote in Falconwood
For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:
- The number and length of the joints
- The number of rooms or windows
- The product the joint needs
- How easy the joints are to reach
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
Asking for a quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to know:
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Where the property is
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- Any previous sealing or DIY work

Your questions about fire rated sealant in Falconwood
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Welling station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Is parking a problem for a job in Falconwood?
London parking needs a little planning, so let us know about permits, bays or a driveway when you book. That way the visit can be planned around it.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Doing several areas at once is normally more efficient.
How long does the job take?
A typical job takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. We will confirm how long when we quote.
Can you fill the gap behind a fire door frame?
Yes. We often seal open gaps hidden behind the architrave. Doors, seals and closers need a door specialist.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. Fresh sealant does not stick to old sealant, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. We remove it all first.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes. All our work carries our 12-month guarantee.
Is standard sealant good enough for a fire gap?
No. It looks sealed but will not perform as fire stopping. Use a product tested for that gap and service and we can apply it for you.
DIY versus a professional finish
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we’ll give you a quote.
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. We can quote for more than one property at once.
How the visit works
Once we are on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. Many London jobs are in flats, so we come ready for stairs, narrow hallways and shared entrances. If the building has a concierge, managing agent or access rules, tell us when you book.
- Access to each area is agreed so the work can run in order.
- Old, damaged or unsuitable sealant is removed.
- Gaps are cleaned of dust and loose material.
- We apply and tool the sealant to the product’s tested detail.
- We record what was done and flag anything that needs a different system.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the work
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
How to get a quote

Fire rated sealant around Falconwood
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 work to the specification you are given, installing the product to its tested details. Commercial buildings in London often have strict access rules and limited loading, and out-of-hours working is possible to arrange.
For landlords with property near Welling station, any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product. For buildings such as Bishop Ridley Church, older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking.
