Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Gordon Hill
Fire-rated sealant closes the gaps around pipes, cables and frames where they pass through a fire-resisting wall or floor. We apply intumescent and fire-rated sealants to the manufacturer’s tested details for each gap. We work on plasterboard & masonry, service penetrations and door frames, and the jobs we see most are seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers and ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed.
London blocks of flats carry pipes and cables through walls and floors in their common parts and service risers. For managing agents and building owners in Gordon Hill, that can mean fire-rated sealant around service openings as well as resealing in shared washrooms and kitchens.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Aftercare tips
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep the record of products and locations with your fire safety documents
- Ask every contractor to reseal any fire stopping they disturb
- Keep pictures of seals that will be hidden
- Check whether a sealant can be painted before decorating over it
Tell other trades that the gaps have been sealed, and ask them to reseal anything they cut through. 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 you can show it was dealt with.
What sealant work cannot fix
In fairness, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:
- Assessing a building’s fire safety
- Certifying a building or signing off its fire safety
- Problems with the door itself rather than the gap around the frame
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we seal

Why it’s worth doing now in Gordon Hill
An open gap in a fire-resisting wall is a route for smoke and fire. Sealing it properly restores what the wall was there to do, and the work involved is often modest. In London conversions, one flat’s bathroom is often above another flat’s ceiling, and a slow leak from a failed seal can end up in the flat below. Putting it right early is much less trouble.
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.
What you get with us
- Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
- A 12-month guarantee on all work
- We never seal over old sealant
- Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas

What else we do in Gordon Hill
What the job involves on each surface
Plasterboard walls
Holes in plasterboard are often cut roughly for services. Where a hole is bigger than the sealant’s tested range, it needs another approach.
Door frames
The gap between a door frame and the wall around it needs sealing as well as the door itself. We fill it with a fire-rated product suited to the materials either side.
What happens on the day
When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. 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. In a London area like Gordon Hill, 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.
- Anything that is not fit for the job comes out, and the gap is cleaned.
- Backing or fill is fitted where the product’s tested detail calls for it.
- We apply the fire-rated or intumescent sealant to the specified depth and tool it.
- 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
- Tell us about any water getting in
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Commercial buildings in Gordon Hill
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, 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, Gordon Hill can be tricky for parking: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. If you look after a building such as St Michael's CofE Primary School, gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices.

Do you need fire rated sealant in Gordon Hill?
Lots of unsealed gaps appear long after the building was completed. Electricians, plumbers and data installers drill through walls and ceilings and the hole they leave does not always get resealed.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Fire seals that have cracked with movement
- Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
- New service routes left unsealed after building work
- Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
For landlords with property near Gordon Hill station, new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether they’re fully insured
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- What happens if the job turns out different
