When to call us in Perivale
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.
People normally contact us after spotting one of these:
- Holes left by a change of layout
- Old fire sealant that has split or come away
- Open gaps behind door architraves
- Open joints along the top of partitions
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St. Mary with St. Nicholas - Perivale, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.

Fire rated sealant in Perivale
Intumescent sealant looks much like any other sealant until it gets hot; then it swells to help close the gap. The right product depends on the gap size, the substrate and what passes through, so we follow the tested detail for each one. If you’re dealing with gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs and holes left by a change of layout, we can help, on flats & HMOs, door frames and pipe & cable gaps alike.
Commercial work in London comes with its own logistics: loading restrictions, building rules and tight access. For a building in Perivale, we agree timings and access before anything starts, and room-by-room programmes can be planned where needed.

Fire rated sealant around Perivale
Many London buildings have tight access and loading restrictions, and out-of-hours working is possible to arrange. In England, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires a fire risk assessment for workplaces and for the common parts of blocks of flats, which is often where open fire-stopping gaps are first noticed. We apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details.
Rented homes near South Greenford station change hands often, and any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product. Managing a site like St John Fisher Catholic Primary School? Then gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. 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.
Perivale: your questions answered
Do you cover Perivale for fire rated sealant?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Perivale is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.
Do you work for landlords with property near South Greenford station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
Do you provide details of the products used?
Yes. We note each location and the product that went in.
Do I have to be there?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you don’t need to watch us work.
Can ordinary silicone be used in a fire-stopping gap?
No. Ordinary silicone, caulk or foam isn’t tested as fire stopping. We cut it out and reseal with a fire-rated product.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before resealing.
Will it make a mess?
No. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
What happens if it’s left?
For some gaps, sealant is not the right answer and another system is needed. Large holes, cable bundles and plastic pipes can call for batts, collars or wraps. If a gap isn’t suitable for sealant, we’ll tell you. In older London homes, water behind a failed joint soaks into brick and timber without much sign, and by the time it shows on a wall or ceiling in Perivale, the repair is bigger than the sealant job would have been.
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.
