Surface by surface
Masonry and concrete
Masonry is dusty and porous, so preparation matters. We brush and vacuum the gap and use backing where the detail needs it before applying the sealant.
Flats and HMOs
In flats and HMOs, the walls and floors between homes and common areas need sealing where services pass through. We seal the gaps your assessor has identified, flat by flat if needed.

What we’re called out for in Leamouth
Many open fire-stopping gaps are made after the building is finished. Electricians, plumbers and data installers drill through walls and ceilings and the hole they leave does not always get resealed.
The most common problems we see are:
- Door frames with gaps between frame and wall
- Gaps left after a refit or conversion
- Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
- Gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment
Schools such as St Luke's Primary School are buildings too, and service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.

Fire rated sealant in Leamouth: local notes
Commercial buildings in London often have strict access rules and limited loading, so out-of-hours working can be arranged where needed. Leamouth has hotels and guest accommodation in and around it. For hotels, a room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.
Community buildings like Church of St Luke are part of the picture too: older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking. Leamouth is in London, so parking needs planning: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book.

Leamouth: your questions answered
Do you work for hotels and guest houses in Leamouth?
Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. Rooms can be done a few at a time, so the building stays open.
Is parking a problem for a job in Leamouth?
Parking in Leamouth, as in most of London, takes a little planning: a visitor permit or a bay close to the door helps a lot, so mention what’s available when you book.
How do I get a quote for fire rated sealant in Leamouth?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. You will get a clear quote before we start.
Do you work in Leamouth?
We do. Our applicators work in Leamouth.
Where do you work from?
We’re a Crawley-based firm, with over 20 years’ experience. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
How long does fire rated sealant take?
Typically it takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. Bigger jobs take longer, and we’ll tell you how long to expect.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No, it will not last. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. The old sealant has to come out completely.
Can I do it myself?
Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Check whether a sealant can be painted before decorating over it
- Tell trades working in the building that fire seals must be put back
- Never patch a fire seal with standard sealant
- Allow for resealing whenever new services are run
Follow the cure time we give you before decorating over the sealant. Not every fire-rated sealant takes paint, so ask us which we used.
It’s easiest to seal gaps while they’re few and easy to reach. Over time, more work adds more holes.
Should I try it myself first?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
For landlords and businesses
Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
Letting agents and landlords in Leamouth can book us as well as householders. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order.
What we do, step by step
We bring everything the job needs with us. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. Many London jobs are in flats, so we come ready for stairs, narrow hallways and shared entrances. If the building has a concierge, managing agent or access rules, tell us when you book.
- We start with the survey or action list, checking the size and surfaces of every gap.
- Anything that is not fit for the job comes out, and the gap is cleaned.
- Backing or fill is fitted where the product’s tested detail calls for it.
- We apply the fire-rated or intumescent sealant to the specified depth and tool it.
- Locations and products are noted so you have them on file.
How to prepare
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Tell us about any water getting in
