Honor Oak Fire Rated Sealant
We cover Honor Oak for intumescent and fire-rated sealant around gaps, frames and service penetrations. Old sealant removed completely, joints prepared properly.
- Cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant
- New service routes left unsealed after building work
- Gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs
How the visit works
We bring everything the job needs with us, so you do not need to buy or prepare anything. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. In a London area like Honor Oak, the main things to plan are parking and access: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space, which floor we are working on and whether there’s a lift.
- We go through the gaps on your list or survey and check each one’s size and substrate.
- Anything that isn’t fit for the job comes out, and the gap is cleaned.
- 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.
- Finally, we list where we worked and what we used, for your records.
Before we arrive
- Mention any tricky access
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on

Advice
Fire rated sealant in Honor Oak
We often work from an action list drawn up by a fire risk assessor on buildings across Honor Oak. Send us the list or the survey and we’ll quote for the fire-rated sealant work on it. We work on pipe & cable gaps, flats & HMOs and service penetrations, and the jobs we see most are fire seals that have cracked with movement and joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey.
Across London, offices, shops, hotels, student halls and blocks of flats all need sealant work from time to time, from washroom silicone to fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables passing through walls. Out-of-hours working can be arranged where a building in Honor Oak can’t close.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

How we quote for fire rated sealant
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- The type of sealant required
- The size of the job
- When we can work, for business premises
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You’ll know the price before we begin.

You do not need to know the technical terms. Just tell us:
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- The type of property
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
Every job is quoted individually. Simply call 0345 464 0079 or email us and describe the job and send photos if you have them.

When to call us in Honor Oak
A lot of fire stopping is out of sight: in ceiling voids, service risers and behind boxing. Out of view, damage sits unnoticed until someone inspects.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls
- Gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs
- Gaps left after a refit or conversion
- Open gaps behind door architraves
Schools such as St Francesca Cabrini Primary School are buildings too, and fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.
Questions to ask before you book

- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- Are they insured?

Honor Oak questions
Is parking an issue for fire rated sealant in Honor Oak?
Parking in Honor Oak, as in most of London, takes a little planning: a visitor permit or a bay close to the door helps a lot.
I let a flat near Honor Oak Park station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Will you assess my building’s fire safety?
No. We follow the requirements from your assessor, designer or building control, and apply each product to its tested details.
Is it worth trying it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
What fire rating will the seal have?
Ratings and certification sit with the product’s test evidence and whoever specified the work. We apply the specified product to the manufacturer’s details and list the locations and products for you.
How long does the job take?
Most jobs take from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access, including the preparation. We will confirm how long when we quote.
Can I use normal mastic around a pipe through a fire wall?
No. Where a fire-rated seal is needed, it has to be a product tested for that use fitted to the maker’s details.
Does someone need to be in?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Look in service cupboards and ceiling voids from time to time
- Ask every contractor to reseal any fire stopping they disturb
- Include fire stopping when you schedule refits
- File the fire-stopping record where your assessor can find it
Tell other trades that the gaps have been sealed, and ask them to reseal anything they cut through. A lot of damaged fire stopping comes from later work.
A flagged gap shouldn’t wait for the next assessment. Have it sealed, then keep the record.
For landlords and businesses
We also work for property managers and facilities teams in Honor Oak and across Greater London. Several sites can be quoted together, and we are fully insured.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
Fire rated sealant around Honor Oak
Workplaces and the common parts of blocks of flats in England need a fire risk assessment under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, 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, and out-of-hours working is possible to arrange.
As a London address, Honor Oak can be tricky for parking: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway. For buildings such as Church of St Augustine, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.
