Fire rated sealant in Harlesden, done properly
In flats, HMOs, offices and schools, fire stopping is often disturbed by later work. One new cable or pipe can leave a gap that nobody goes back to seal. Those are the gaps we close, using a tested fire-rated product. Common call-outs are for gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs and gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls, on linear gaps, flats & HMOs and door frames.
Commercial work in London comes with its own logistics: loading restrictions, building rules and tight access. For a building in Harlesden, 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 Harlesden and everywhere else we cover.

Different surfaces, different methods
Flats and HMOs
Converted houses often have gaps around old and new services. The gaps on your list are sealed with a fire-rated product and record where they are.
Plasterboard walls
Service holes in plasterboard are often rough and oversized. Gaps that are too big for sealant alone need a different detail.
Honest limits
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we will tell you before any work starts. It will not solve:
- Construction that doesn’t provide fire resistance on its own
- Deciding what fire stopping a building needs
- Certifying a building or signing off its fire safety
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will tell you honestly.

How to look after the new joints
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Look in service cupboards and ceiling voids from time to time
- Photograph sealed gaps before they’re covered up
- Never patch a fire seal with standard sealant
- Report cracked or damaged seals as soon as you notice them
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.
Open gaps don’t only matter in a fire: they also let noise, draughts and sometimes pests through. Sealing them early helps on every front.
Can I do it myself?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
What affects the quote in Harlesden
Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:

Commercial buildings in Harlesden

If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of All Souls, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as John Keble CofE Primary School, service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.

Common questions in Harlesden
Do you work in hotels near Harlesden?
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.

What do you need from me for a quote?
A short description and the location, plus photos if you have them. If we need more, we will ask.
What does intumescent mean?
Intumescent means it swells when heated to help seal the gap. It’s one type of fire-rated sealant; which product suits depends on the gap, the substrate and the service.
Is standard sealant good enough for a fire gap?
No. Standard sealants are not made or tested to stop fire. If it’s been used, we remove it and use the right product.
Can you give us a record of the work?
Yes. Every gap we seal is listed with the product used, so you have it on file.
Do you certify the fire stopping?
We don’t certify fire stopping or quote ratings. We apply the specified product to the manufacturer’s details and list the locations and products for you.
