What fire rated sealant looks like in Maida Vale
Many London buildings have tight access and loading restrictions, and out-of-hours working is possible to arrange. There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Maida Vale. Hotel work can be planned room by room, with out-of-hours working where needed.
Schools such as Essendine Primary School are buildings too, and gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices.

What sealant work can’t fix
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant won’t put right:
- Walls or floors that weren’t built to resist fire
- Fire risk assessments, which need a qualified assessor
- Sign-off of the building, which sits with building control or your assessor
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we seal
- Plasterboard & masonry
- Service penetrations
- Linear gaps
- Flats & HMOs
- Pipe & cable gaps
- Door frames
Leave it or put it right?
An unsealed gap lets smoke and fire get round a wall that was built to hold them back. Sealing it properly restores what the wall was there to do, and the work involved is often modest. Converted houses in London often have a bathroom above someone else’s living room, so a small leak from tired sealant can mean a neighbour’s ceiling and a lot of disruption. Dealing with it early is far simpler for homes in Maida Vale.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before work begins, so you know where you stand.

How to look after the new joints
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Flag any open gap you spot round a pipe or cable
- File the fire-stopping record where your assessor can find it
- Look in service cupboards and ceiling voids from time to time
- Ask every contractor to reseal any fire stopping they disturb
Let contractors know where fire stopping has been done, and ask them to reseal anything they cut through. A lot of damaged fire stopping comes from later work.
Open gaps don’t only matter in a fire: they also let noise, draughts and sometimes pests through. Dealing with them early helps with all of these.
Common questions in Maida Vale
Can parking be tricky for a visit in Maida Vale?
Parking in Maida Vale, as in most of London, takes a little planning: a visitor permit or a bay close to the door helps a lot.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Kilburn High Road station?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Do you seal gaps around fire door frames?
Yes, if the gap is within the product’s tested range. Our work is the gap around the frame.
Will there be a smell?
That depends on the sealant. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all.
Can I use normal mastic around a pipe through a fire wall?
No. Standard sealants aren’t made or tested to stop fire. If it’s been used, we remove it and use the right product.
Will you assess my building’s fire safety?
No. We work from the specification you give us, and apply each product to its tested details.
What information do you need?
Let us know what needs doing and where, plus photos if you have them. If we need more, we will ask.
How do I get a quote for fire rated sealant in Maida Vale?
We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. We agree the price before any work begins.
Surface by surface
Plasterboard walls
Holes in plasterboard are often cut roughly for services. Gaps that are too big for sealant alone need a different detail.
Flats and HMOs
Flats and HMOs rely on fire separation between homes and the common parts. We work through the gaps on your assessment.
Should I try it myself first?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
How it works
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we’re treating, so you can get on with your day. Expect the work to take a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building, and we explain the cure time before we leave. In a London area like Maida Vale, the main things to plan are parking and access: let us know about parking, the floor we will be working on and any lift or shared entrance.
- We begin by agreeing the list of gaps from your assessor’s or designer’s requirements.
- Each gap is measured and its substrate and service noted.
- Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out.
- We fit backing where needed and apply the fire-rated sealant to depth.
- We hand over a list of locations and products for your records.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
