About our fire rated sealant in Mitcham
We often work from an action list drawn up by a fire risk assessor for buildings in Mitcham. Send us the list or the survey and we’ll quote for the fire-rated sealant work on it. We work on door frames, service penetrations and plasterboard & masonry, and people most often call us about linear gaps at the head of walls and ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed.
Commercial work in London comes with its own logistics: loading restrictions, building rules and tight access. For a building in Mitcham, we agree timings and access before anything starts.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Mitcham and across Greater London.

How it works
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and clear up. Most jobs take from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. Parking in much of London is by permit or pay-and-display, so it helps to know what’s near you in Mitcham. It helps if you can point us to a visitor permit or a bay close to the door.
- We start with the survey or action list, checking the size and surfaces of every gap.
- Old or unsuitable sealant is cut out and the gap cleaned.
- Backing or fill is fitted where the product’s tested detail calls for it.
- Fire-rated or intumescent sealant is applied to the right depth and tooled.
- Finally, we list where we worked and what we used, for your records.

Why it’s worth doing now in Mitcham
Fire-rated sealants need more care than everyday sealant. Depth, backing and surface preparation all affect how a seal performs, so we follow the maker’s details on every gap. In London conversions, one flat’s bathroom is often above another flat’s ceiling, and a slow leak from a failed seal can end up in the flat below. Putting it right early is much less trouble.
The cost depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.
Why book with us

Looking after it afterwards
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Keep general-purpose foam and caulk away from fire-stopping gaps
- Tell trades working in the building that fire seals must be put back
- Store the list of sealed gaps with your building paperwork
- Ask which product was used before you paint
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.
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.
What affects the quote in Mitcham
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- The type of sealant required
- Access and height
- When we can work, for business premises
- Any mould that needs treating
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.
Helping us quote
To make quoting easier, please include:
- Whether it has been sealed before
- How we’d reach the joints
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
We do not publish a price list, because every job is different. Instead, we send you a clear quote for your job. To arrange one, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

What the job involves on each surface
Plasterboard walls
Holes in plasterboard are often cut roughly for services. Gaps that are too big for sealant alone need a different detail, and we will tell you.
Service penetrations
Different services need different details: metal pipes, cables and plastic pipes are not treated the same. We follow the manufacturer’s tested detail for each and we flag any that need another system.
FAQs for Mitcham

Can I add another job to the visit?

Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, and we never do. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new bead soon lifts. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
What sealant do you use?
The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Do you provide details of the products used?
Yes. When the job is done, we give you the locations and products. If you need photos or a set layout, ask when you get a quote.
Can I use normal mastic around a pipe through a fire wall?
No. Standard sealants are not made or tested to stop fire. If it’s been used, we remove it and use the right product.
Are you insured?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, and we’ve been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
For landlords and businesses
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
Fire rated sealant in Mitcham: local notes
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. Many London buildings have tight access and loading restrictions, so out-of-hours working can be arranged where needed.
Community buildings like St. Mark's Church are part of the picture too: service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building. Schools such as St Thomas of Canterbury Catholic Primary School are buildings too, and fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.

Common reasons people contact us are:
- Fire seals that have cracked with movement
- New service routes left unsealed after building work
- Unsealed gaps around fire door frames
- Fire stopping disturbed by later work
