Fire rated sealant in Grahame Park
Where services or frames pass through a fire-resisting wall or floor, the gap around them needs a fire-rated seal. Each gap is sealed to the product maker’s tested detail for its size and substrate, and we can record what went where. We work on service penetrations, plasterboard & masonry and flats & HMOs, and the jobs we see most are gaps left after a refit or conversion and old fire sealant that has split or come away.
In London, a commercial job often starts with access: loading bays, building rules and lifts. For a building in Grahame Park, we agree timings and access before anything starts, and room-by-room programmes can be planned where needed.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, in Grahame Park and everywhere else we cover.

Commercial buildings in Grahame Park
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. Many London buildings have tight access and loading restrictions, so out-of-hours working can be arranged where needed.
If you let a flat or house near Mill Hill Broadway station, any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as St James' Catholic High School, fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.

Different surfaces, different methods
Service penetrations
Pipes, cables and ducts passing through fire-resisting walls and floors each leave a gap. We seal it with a product tested for that service and gap size.
Masonry and concrete
Brick, block and concrete walls and floors are sealed with products tested in masonry. The gap is cleaned of dust first so the sealant bonds.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. Several properties can be quoted together.
Can I do it myself?
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Include hidden areas like risers in routine checks
- Take pictures of fire stopping before ceilings or boxing go back
- Check whether a sealant can be painted before decorating over it
- Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
Include fire stopping in your regular building checks. Look for cracks, gaps or sealant that has been cut or pulled out and have them put right.
When you plan work that goes through walls or ceilings, plan the fire stopping too. Doing it at the time avoids leaving gaps behind.
What we do, step by step
Good joint work is mostly preparation, and we do not rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it generally 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.
- 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.
- Every location is recorded with the product used.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

Advice
Do you need fire rated sealant in Grahame Park?
A lot of fire stopping is out of sight: above ceilings, inside risers and behind panels. Because nobody sees it, gaps go unnoticed until an assessor or surveyor looks.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Linear gaps at the head of walls
- Fire stopping disturbed by later work
- Open gaps behind door architraves
- Holes left by a change of layout
As a London address, Grahame Park can be tricky for parking: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book.
What to look for in a quote
- When the joint can take water or movement
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
Why act early in Grahame Park
An open gap in a fire-resisting wall is a route for smoke and fire. A proper seal lets the wall do its job again, and the sealing itself is often a contained piece of work. In a flat in Grahame Park, 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.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed. Call for a quick quote and we’ll explain what it covers.
Why book with us
- An ARBOMaster approved applicator

FAQs for Grahame Park
Do you take on hotel work around Grahame Park?
Yes, hospitality work, including hotels, is part of what we do. Work can be planned room by room, and out-of-hours working can be arranged.
Is parking a problem for a job in Grahame Park?
In much of London, parking needs planning: a visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the day run more smoothly.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Just the basics: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. Then phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
We are based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Will you assess my building’s fire safety?
No. Your fire risk assessor, designer or building control decides that. We apply fire-rated sealant to the requirements they set.
What does intumescent mean?
Intumescent means it swells when heated, helping close the gap. It’s one type of fire-rated sealant; which product suits depends on the gap, the substrate and the service.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
Are you insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work.
