Fire rated sealant in Kingston upon Thames
Where services or frames pass through a fire-resisting wall or floor, the gap around them needs a fire-rated seal. Each gap is sealed to the product maker’s tested detail for its size and substrate, with a record of the products and locations if you need one. We work on door frames, plasterboard & masonry and linear gaps, and people most often call us about old fire sealant that has split or come away and seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers.
In London’s blocks of flats, service risers and common parts have pipes and cables passing through walls and floors. In Kingston upon Thames, building managers may need both fire-rated sealant around those openings and new sealant in shared washrooms.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee.

Questions from Kingston upon Thames
Do you work in hotels near Kingston upon Thames?
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.
Is parking an issue for fire rated sealant in Kingston upon Thames?
In much of London, parking needs planning: a visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the day run more smoothly, so mention what’s available when you book.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, with over 20 years’ experience in sealant work.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, it will not last. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new bead soon lifts. The old sealant has to come out completely.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work in that time, tell us and we will put it right.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We are ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Let us know what needs doing and where. We will ask anything else we need to know.
How long will you be here?
That depends on how much there is to do, but most jobs take a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. We will tell you when we quote.
What happens if it’s left?
For some gaps, sealant is not the right answer and another system is needed. Large holes, cable bundles and plastic pipes can call for batts, collars or wraps. If a gap isn’t suitable for sealant, we will tell you. Damp from a failed joint spreads quietly in older London brickwork and timber, and once it shows in Kingston upon Thames, the repair is bigger than a sealant job.
Doing several joints on one visit is generally more efficient than separate visits. We’ll send you a clear quote for the lot.

What affects the quote in Kingston upon Thames
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The number of rooms or windows
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Access and height
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.
What to tell us for a quote
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Please mention:
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- The address or postcode of the job
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Tell trades working in the building that fire seals must be put back
- Store the list of sealed gaps with your building paperwork
- Keep general-purpose foam and caulk away from fire-stopping gaps
- Check whether a sealant can be painted before decorating over it
Include fire stopping in your regular building checks. Watch for cracking, gaps or seals that have been disturbed and have them put right.
A gap left open in a fire-resisting wall or floor lets smoke spread in ways the building wasn’t designed for. Sealing it early is a simple step to take.
What fire rated sealant looks like in Kingston upon Thames

We work to the specification you are given, installing the product to its tested details. Commercial buildings in London often have strict access rules and limited loading, and out-of-hours working is possible to arrange.
For buildings such as Church of St Luke, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.

Related advice
Can I do it myself?
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.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
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.
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.
Different surfaces, different methods
Plasterboard walls
In plasterboard walls, the condition of the board edge matters. Crumbling edges are cleaned back before the sealant goes in.
Service penetrations
Different services need different details: metal pipes, cables and plastic pipes aren’t treated the same. Each one is sealed to the product’s tested detail, and tell you if sealant alone is not the right fix.
