How the job changes by surface
Service penetrations
Service penetrations are where new gaps often appear. Old or unsuitable filler comes out before the right sealant goes in with backing where the detail needs it.
Door frames
We deal with the gap around the frame, not the door. The door leaf, its seals and closer need a door specialist and we will mention anything we notice.
Looking after it afterwards
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Flag any open gap you spot round a pipe or cable
- Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
- Do not paint over fire sealant until it has cured
- Never patch a fire seal with standard sealant
Any fire seal that’s cut or drilled needs resealing to its tested detail. New services through a sealed wall should include fire stopping in the plan.
A gap left open in a fire-resisting wall or floor lets smoke spread in ways the building wasn’t designed for. Closing it is usually a straightforward job.
Fire rated sealant in Green Street: local notes
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’re given, installing the product to its tested details.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Parkside Community Primary School, gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St Michael and All Angels Church, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there. Letting a property close to Elstree & Borehamwood station? Then any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.

Questions from Green Street
Is Green Street within the area you cover?
Yes, Green Street is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can you do fire rated sealant in Green Street?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Green Street is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Do you take on fire stopping in schools and offices?
Yes. Flats, HMOs, offices, schools and other occupied buildings are all part of our work. We agree access and the order of work with you first.
What should I tell you?
A short description and the location. We’ll ask anything else we need to know.
Does someone need to be in?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
Usually, yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available for many products, and we will agree it with you first.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, every time. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Can you fill the gap behind a fire door frame?
Yes. We seal the gap between the frame and the wall with a suitable fire-rated product. The door leaf and its hardware need a door specialist.
How it works
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. Most jobs then take from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. In a small place like Green Street, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First we work through your list or survey, measuring each gap and checking what it’s formed in.
- We remove any old or unsuitable filler and clean the gap.
- Where the tested detail needs backing or fill, we fit it.
- We apply the fire-rated or intumescent sealant to the specified depth and tool it.
- We record the locations and products used for your records.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Clear the area around the work

Related advice
What we cannot put right
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Walls or floors that weren’t built to resist fire
- Sign-off of the building, which sits with building control or your assessor
- Openings too large for sealant, which need batts, boards or another system
If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height

What happens if it’s left?
Fire-rated sealants are less forgiving than ordinary ones. Depth, backing and surface preparation all affect how a seal performs, and we work to the product details every time. In a small place like Green Street, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.
