- Gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls
- Gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment
- Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
Keeping the joints in good condition
Aftercare is simple:
- File the fire-stopping record where your assessor can find it
- Plan fire stopping into any work that goes through walls or floors
- Keep general-purpose foam and caulk away from fire-stopping gaps
- Keep pictures of seals that will be hidden
Include fire stopping in your regular building checks. Look for cracks, gaps or sealant that has been cut or pulled out and have them put right.
A flagged gap shouldn’t wait for the next assessment. Have it sealed, then keep the record.
About our fire rated sealant in Little London
We often work from an action list drawn up by a fire risk assessor on buildings across Little London. If you share the list, we can quote for the gaps that need fire-rated sealant. If you have linear gaps at the head of walls and fire seals that have cracked with movement, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
If you have holiday lets, a converted barn used for business or a community building near Little London, the washrooms, kitchens and any fire-rated joints need the same care as a big site.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Advice
Common problems we fix in Little London
Gaps also open up as buildings move: a seal that cracks or pulls away leaves a path for smoke. Damage from cleaning, knocks and maintenance adds to it.
The problems people generally mention when they call are:
- Door frames with gaps between frame and wall
- Gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs
- Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
- Gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment
For buildings such as Christ Church, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.

What fire rated sealant looks like in Little London
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 work to the specification you are given, installing the product to its tested details.
Letting a property close to Andover station? Then any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.

Joints and surfaces we work on
- Linear gaps
- Pipe & cable gaps
- Service penetrations
- Flats & HMOs
- Plasterboard & masonry
- Door frames
What the job involves on each surface
Service penetrations
Different services need different details: metal pipes, cables and plastic pipes aren’t treated the same. We follow the manufacturer’s tested detail for each, and tell you if sealant alone isn’t the right fix.
Masonry and concrete
Holes through concrete and block are rarely neat. We check the gap size around the service to make sure it suits the product.
Little London: your questions answered
I let a flat near Andover station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Do you cover Little London for fire rated sealant?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Little London is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing.
How much does fire rated sealant cost in Little London?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. You will get a clear quote before work begins.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.

For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Will it make a mess?
No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the 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.
