Commercial buildings in Peckham
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. Commercial buildings in London often have strict access rules and limited loading, and out-of-hours working is possible to arrange.
For buildings such as All Saints Church, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there. Managing a site like John Donne Primary School? Then fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.

Fire rated sealant in Peckham
Ordinary silicone or decorators’ caulk in a fire-stopping gap isn’t a fire-rated seal. Anything unsuitable comes out first and the gap is resealed with a product tested for that use. We work on plasterboard & masonry, flats & HMOs and door frames, and people most often call us about holes left by a change of layout and open gaps behind door architraves.
In London’s blocks of flats, service risers and common parts have pipes and cables passing through walls and floors. In Peckham, building managers may need both fire-rated sealant around those openings and new sealant in shared washrooms.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

What affects the cost of fire rated sealant
Every job gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- The number of rooms or windows
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Whether the work is at height
- Mould in or behind the old joints
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
What to tell us for a quote
To help us quote quickly, please include:
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- The address or postcode of the job
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- If someone has resealed it before
If you are in Peckham and need fire rated sealant, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email. Tell us what the problem is and where, and you will get a clear quote before any work starts.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we will give you a quote.
From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.
Peckham questions
Do you work for landlords with property near Queens Road Peckham station?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before work begins.
Is parking a problem for a job in Peckham?
In much of London, parking needs planning: a visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the day run more smoothly, so mention what’s available when you book.
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.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes. Just list everything you need and you’ll get one quote.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that generally means someone at home.
What does fire rated sealant cost?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Ask us for a quote.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status and we are fully insured too.
Do you work in Peckham?
Yes. We cover Peckham and the rest of Greater London. For a quote, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Why deal with it now?
Doing it once, properly, beats doing it twice. Work that doesn’t follow the tested detail may have to come out again once someone inspects it. 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 for homes in Peckham.
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.
Why Peckham customers choose us
- One-year guarantee on every job
- Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels

DIY sealant or a professional job?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
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 doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
When to call us in Peckham
Movement in the structure can open gaps too: cracked or debonded sealant leaves an open route through the wall. Knocks, maintenance and building work damage it further.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Damaged fire sealant left by other trades
- Sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list
- Door frames with gaps between frame and wall
- Fire seals that have cracked with movement
Rented homes near Queens Road Peckham station change hands often, and any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- Which colour the sealant will be
- Whether VAT is included
