Fire-rated sealant in Greenhill, Greater London
Our applicators work in Greenhill on intumescent and fire-rated sealant around gaps, frames and service penetrations. Old material cut out, joints cleaned and sealed neatly and every job guaranteed for a year.
- Gaps filled with a product that is not fire-rated
- Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
- Cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant
How it works
Our applicators work methodically: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access, and the area is left clean. In a London area like Greenhill, the main things to plan are parking and access: let us know about parking, the floor we will be working on and any lift or shared entrance.
- Access to each area is agreed so the work can run in order.
- We take out any damaged or unsuitable sealant.
- Dust and loose debris are cleaned from each gap.
- The fire-rated or intumescent sealant is applied and tooled to the tested detail.
- We record what was done and flag anything that needs a different system.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any water getting in
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Mention any parking rules near the property

About our fire rated sealant in Greenhill
A gap around a door frame, a linear joint at the head of a wall and a hole round a pipe are each sealed differently. We check the size and the substrate before choosing the product, then apply it to the depth its tested detail calls for. Typical jobs include standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap and old fire sealant that has split or come away, across plasterboard & masonry, door frames and flats & HMOs.
In London, a commercial job often starts with access: loading bays, building rules and lifts. Timings and access are agreed with the building before work starts in Greenhill.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

What happens if it’s left?
Paying for fire stopping that has to be redone is a false economy. Work that doesn’t follow the tested detail may have to come out again once someone inspects it. Converted houses in London often have a bathroom above someone else’s living room, so a small leak from tired sealant can mean a neighbour’s ceiling and a lot of disruption. Putting it right early is much less trouble for homes in Greenhill.
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask a few questions first and send you a clear quote before we start.

Do you work for landlords with property near Harrow-on-the-Hill station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear quote.
Is there any odour?
Sometimes, a little. It fades as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
Are you insured?
Yes, we’re fully insured.
What’s the difference between intumescent and fire-rated sealant?
An intumescent sealant expands when it gets hot, helping close the gap. Intumescent sealants are one kind of fire-rated sealant; the right one depends on the gap and what passes through it.
How long does fire rated sealant take?
Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are, including the preparation. We will confirm how long when we quote.
Can ordinary silicone be used in a fire-stopping gap?
No. It looks sealed but won’t perform as fire stopping. Use a product tested for that gap and service.
Do you do fire sealant around door frames?
Yes. The joint between frame and wall is sealed with a fire-rated sealant following the tested details. The door leaf and its hardware need a door specialist.
Surface by surface
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.
Linear gaps
Gaps along the top of partitions are easy to miss above a ceiling. We seal them along their full length.
DIY versus a professional finish
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

When something else is needed
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant will not do:
- Big openings where sealant alone is not the tested solution
- Fire risk assessments, which need a qualified assessor
- Construction that doesn’t provide fire resistance on its own
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we seal
- Flats & HMOs
- Plasterboard & masonry
- Door frames
- Service penetrations
- Linear gaps
- Pipe & cable gaps
For landlords and businesses
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
When to call us in Greenhill
Gaps around door frames are easily missed. The architrave hides the gap between frame and wall, so it’s easy to leave unsealed when doors are changed.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
- Unsealed gaps around fire door frames
- New service routes left unsealed after building work
- Cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant
Schools such as Saint Jerome Church of England Bilingual School are buildings too, and gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices.

Fire rated sealant in Greenhill: local notes
Commercial buildings in London often have strict access rules and limited loading, so out-of-hours working can be arranged where needed. 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 apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details.
Greenhill is in London, so parking needs planning: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. Community buildings like Church of St John the Baptist are part of the picture too: gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.
