For landlords and businesses

Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.

Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.

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.

Signs you need fire rated sealant in Greenford

Sealant applied too thin, without the backing its detail needs, or onto dust will not perform as it was tested. We see plenty of fire stopping that was hurried.

Common reasons people contact us are:

  • Gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment
  • Unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall
  • Cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant
  • Fire stopping disturbed by later work

Rented homes near Greenford station change hands often, and new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant.

Choosing a sealant specialist

What affects the quote in Greenford

For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:

  • The number of rooms or windows
  • Any mould that needs treating
  • How much there is to do
  • Working hours on commercial sites

A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are unsure, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

Helping us quote

What to tell us when you ask for a quote:

  • Any previous sealing or DIY work
  • Roughly how big the job is
  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
  • The type of property

It all starts with a short chat. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we’ll explain how we’d tackle it. When it suits you, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Different surfaces, different methods

Plasterboard walls

Plasterboard partitions are common in flats, offices and conversions. The sealant has to be one tested in plasterboard for each gap size.

Masonry and concrete

Masonry is dusty and porous, so preparation matters. We brush and vacuum the gap and use backing where the detail needs it.

The process

The work is kept neat and contained to the area we’re working on, so you can get on with your day. The job normally takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access, and we explain the cure time before we leave. For a job in Greenford, parking and access are the things to plan: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space, which floor we’re working on and whether there’s a lift.

  1. We go through the gaps on your list or survey and check each one’s size and substrate.
  2. Anything that is not fit for the job comes out, and the gap is cleaned.
  3. Backing or fill is fitted where the product’s tested detail calls for it.
  4. The sealant goes in to the depth its detail sets, then it’s tooled off.
  5. Locations and products are noted so you have them on file.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the work
  • Let us know about parking restrictions
  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

What happens if it’s left?

Fire-rated sealants are less forgiving than ordinary ones. How it’s installed changes how it performs, so we follow the maker’s details on every gap. In London conversions, one flat’s bathroom is often above another flat’s ceiling, so a small leak from tired sealant can mean a neighbour’s ceiling and a lot of disruption. Dealing with it early is far simpler.

Combining jobs into one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.

Commercial buildings in Greenford

In England, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires a fire risk assessment for workplaces and for the common parts of blocks of flats, which is often where open fire-stopping gaps are first noticed. We apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details. Many London buildings have tight access and loading restrictions, so out-of-hours working can be arranged where needed.

Schools such as Oldfield Primary School are buildings too, and service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment. For buildings such as Parish Church of the Holy Cross (old Church), older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking.
