How we handle fire rated sealant in Lambeth
Door frame gaps, linear joints and holes around services all have their own details. Measuring the gap and checking what it’s made of comes first, then apply it to the depth its tested detail calls for. We work on linear gaps, pipe & cable gaps and service penetrations, and the jobs we see most are door frames with gaps between frame and wall and gaps left after a refit or conversion.
London blocks of flats carry pipes and cables through walls and floors in their common parts and service risers. For managing agents and building owners in Lambeth, that can mean fire-rated sealant around service openings as well as resealing in shared washrooms and kitchens.
Every job comes with a one-year guarantee.

How we quote for fire rated sealant
Every job gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- The number and length of the joints
- Working hours on commercial sites
- Whether the work is at height
- The old material and how stubborn it is
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.
Helping us quote
There’s no need for technical detail. Just tell us:
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- How we’d reach the joints
Getting a quote is simple: tell us what needs doing and where and its rough size. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we will come back to you with a quote.

DIY versus a professional finish
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
How the job changes by surface
Door frames
Our work is the joint between frame and wall. The door leaf, its seals and closer need a door specialist and we’ll mention anything we notice.
Service penetrations
Pipes, cables and ducts passing through fire-resisting walls and floors each leave a gap. The sealant is chosen for what passes through and how wide the gap is.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Tell trades working in the building that fire seals must be put back
- Check whether a sealant can be painted before decorating over it
- Store the list of sealed gaps with your building paperwork
- Plan fire stopping into any work that goes through walls or floors
Leave the sealant to cure fully before painting near it. Some fire-rated sealants can be painted and some can’t, so ask us which we used.
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.
Commercial buildings in Lambeth
Commercial buildings in London often have strict access rules and limited loading, so out-of-hours working can be arranged where needed. 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 Vauxhall station change hands often, and new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Vauxhall Primary School, gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St Peter's Church, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.

What’s near Lambeth
We work in homes and buildings around The Jolly Gardeners pub, Old Paradise Gardens and Lambeth Palace Library, among other places. You’ll also find Lambeth School of Art (less than half a mile south) and Lilian Baylis Technology School (under half a mile south). Lambeth has its own railway station: Vauxhall station.

Why deal with it now?
Squirting in whichever sealant is nearest does not make a fire seal. Fire-rated products are tested in set gap sizes, depths and substrates, so both the product and the method matter. Converted houses in London often have a bathroom above someone else’s living room, and a slow leak from a failed seal can end up in the flat below. Dealing with it early is far simpler for homes in Lambeth.
Doing several joints on one visit is generally more efficient than separate visits. We’ll give you a clear quote for the lot.
