About our fire rated sealant in Mile End
Deciding which gaps need fire stopping is not our role; that comes from your fire risk assessor, designer or building control. What we do is apply the right product to that specification, properly and neatly. Common call-outs are for gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs and old fire sealant that has split or come away, on flats & HMOs, pipe & cable gaps and plasterboard & masonry.
London’s offices, shops, hotels, student accommodation and blocks of flats all have joints to look after, whether that is washroom resealing or fire-rated sealant around service openings. Where a building in Mile End needs to stay open, work can be planned outside normal hours.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, in Mile End and everywhere else we cover.

How it works
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and tidy away. It usually takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. In a London area like Mile End, the main things to plan are parking and access: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space, which floor we’re working on and whether there’s a lift.
- Before starting, we go through the specification or action list with you.
- We measure every gap and note what it’s in and what passes through.
- Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out and the gap cleaned.
- The specified fire-rated sealant goes in over any backing its detail requires.
- Every location is recorded with the product used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

When to call us in Mile End
In some buildings the gap was filled with the wrong thing in the first place: ordinary expanding foam, standard silicone or decorators’ caulk where a fire-rated seal was needed. It looks sealed, but it isn’t fire-rated.
The most common problems we see are:
- Gaps filled with a product that is not fire-rated
- Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
- Gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs
- Old fire sealant that has split or come away
Mile End is in London, so parking needs planning: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book.
Before you book anyone
- Is VAT in the price?
- Whether you can choose the colour
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- How much experience the applicator has
Keeping the joints in good condition
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Include hidden areas like risers in routine checks
- Flag any open gap you spot round a pipe or cable
- Check whether a sealant can be painted before decorating over it
- Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
Do not add foam, filler or ordinary sealant over a fire seal. Repairs should use a matching fire-rated product. Ask us if you’re not sure which product was used.
Open gaps do not only matter in a fire: they also let noise, draughts and sometimes pests through. Sealing them early helps on every front.

Hotel work can be planned room by room, with out-of-hours working where needed.
Rented homes near Limehouse station change hands often, and new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant. For buildings such as Holy Trinity Church, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.

Should I try it myself first?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
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.
How the job changes by surface
Door frames
We deal with the gap around the frame, not the door. Doors, seals and closers are for a door specialist.
Masonry and concrete
For masonry and concrete, we use a product tested in that substrate. We clean out dust and debris before sealing so the sealant bonds.
