Fire-rated sealant in Holywell, Greater London
Problem with your fire-stopping gaps in Holywell? We cut out the old, prepare the joints and apply the right sealant.
- Unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall
- Door frames with gaps between frame and wall
- Fire seals that have cracked with movement
How we handle fire rated sealant in Holywell
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 the sealant goes in to the depth the product’s details set. If you are dealing with ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed and fire seals that have cracked with movement, we can put it right, on door frames, pipe & cable gaps and plasterboard & masonry alike.
Across London, offices, shops, hotels, student halls and blocks of flats all need sealant work from time to time, whether that’s washroom resealing or fire-rated sealant around service openings. Where a building in Holywell needs to stay open, work can be planned outside normal hours.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, in Holywell and everywhere else we cover.

Leave it or put it right?
Items left open on a fire risk assessment tend to come back at the next review. Having them sealed and recorded now means you can show the action was taken. In a London flat, a failed joint rarely stays your problem alone: water from a shower or window joint can reach the flat below, and gaps in fire-stopping matter to everyone in the building.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask about the job first.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
When something else is needed
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:
- Openings too large for sealant, which need batts, boards or another system
- Assessing a building’s fire safety
- Certifying a building or signing off its fire safety
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.

Are you an approved applicator?

Will you leave a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Do you carry out fire risk assessments?
No. We follow the requirements from your assessor, designer or building control and install to the manufacturer’s details.
Can you tell me how many minutes the seal will last?
Ratings and certificates aren’t something we issue. The performance comes from the product’s tested details and the specification from your assessor or designer.
Can I use normal mastic around a pipe through a fire wall?
No. Ordinary silicone, caulk or foam is not tested as fire stopping. If it’s been used, we remove it and use the right product.

More services for Holywell
Different surfaces, different methods
Service penetrations
New gaps tend to show up where services have been added. We clean out what’s there and reseal to the right depth.
Door frames
A door can only do its job if the gap behind its frame is sealed too. We seal that gap with a fire-rated sealant suited to the frame and wall.
Keeping the joints in good condition
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Check whether a sealant can be painted before decorating over it
- Include hidden areas like risers in routine checks
- Keep photos of seals that will be hidden
- Never patch a fire seal with standard sealant
Any fire seal that is cut or drilled needs resealing to its tested detail. New services through a sealed wall should include fire stopping in the plan.
If a fire risk assessment has flagged a gap, do not leave it for the next one. Have it sealed, then keep the record so you can show it was dealt with.
What we do, step by step
You do not need to clear the whole room or building before we come, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the job takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are for a typical job. In Holywell, as in most of London, parking needs a little planning. It helps if you can point us to a visitor permit or a bay close to the door.

- We take out any damaged or unsuitable sealant.
- Dust and loose debris are cleaned from each gap.

Workplaces and buildings in Holywell
Commercial buildings in London often have strict access rules and limited loading, and out-of-hours working is possible to arrange. 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.
Rented homes near Watford High Street station change hands often, and fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through. Community buildings like St Oswald's Parish Church are part of the picture too: service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building. Schools such as Westfield Academy are buildings too, and fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.
