Aftercare tips
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Plan fire stopping into any work that goes through walls or floors
- Do not paint over fire sealant until it has cured
- Include hidden areas like risers in routine checks
- Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
Look at the sealed gaps as part of your routine walk-rounds. Look for cracks, gaps or sealant that has been cut or pulled out and have them put right.
Small gaps around services are simple to deal with while there are only a few. Over time, more work adds more holes and the list grows.

Leave it or put it right?
If an assessor has flagged gaps, it makes sense to close them before the next review. Having them sealed and recorded now gives you evidence that the item was dealt with. 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. Dealing with it early is far simpler.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

What fire rated sealant looks like in Nunhead
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’re 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.
For buildings such as Saint Antony with Saint Silas, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Ivydale Primary School, fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.

Signs you need fire rated sealant in Nunhead
Buildings are refitted and reconfigured over the years. A house turned into flats or an HMO, or an office split into smaller units, brings new walls, new service routes and new gaps.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant
- Gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls
- Joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey
- Open gaps behind door architraves
Rented homes near Nunhead station change hands often, and fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through.
