Fire rated sealant in Pimlico

Bigger jobs can be worked through in stages, flat by flat or floor by floor. That record is useful for your files and for whoever looks at the building next. If you have unsealed gaps around fire door frames and new service routes left unsealed after building work, we can put it right.

Commercial work in London comes with its own logistics: loading restrictions, building rules and tight access. For a building in Pimlico, we agree timings and access before anything starts.

Our work is backed for twelve months, in Pimlico and everywhere else we cover.

Do you need fire rated sealant in Pimlico?

A lot of fire stopping is out of sight: above ceilings, inside risers and behind panels. Out of view, damage sits unnoticed until someone inspects.

Any of these means the joints need attention:

  • Joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey
  • Fire stopping disturbed by later work
  • Fire seals that have cracked with movement
  • Open joints along the top of partitions

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Churchill Gardens Primary Academy, fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.

What your quote should include

  • How long to leave it before use
  • Whether they seal over old material or remove it
  • What insurance they hold
  • What the quote includes, VAT included or not

Our hiring checklist

What sealant work cannot fix

Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t solve:

  • Doors that are not fire doors in the first place
  • Walls or floors that weren’t built to resist fire
  • Openings too large for sealant, which need batts, boards or another system

Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly.

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • Door frames
  • Plasterboard & masonry
  • Linear gaps
  • Pipe & cable gaps
  • Flats & HMOs
  • Service penetrations

Fire rated sealant around Pimlico

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. There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Pimlico. For hotels, a room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.

Pimlico is in London, so parking needs planning: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. If you let a flat or house near London Victoria station, fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through.

Pimlico is about 1 mile east of Brompton, in Greater London. Anywhere in SW1P, our applicators can take on fire rated sealant. Pimlico is one of 764 towns and villages in Greater London where we work.

Here we cover the SW1P, SW1V and SW1W postcode area for fire rated sealant. Streets in the area include Ponton Road, Wilton Road and Ebury Square, all of which we cover. With the A202 and A3212 close by, Pimlico is easy for our applicators to reach. Close by, we work in Victoria (1 mile north-west), Nine Elms (1 mile south-west), Westminster (1 mile north), Millbank (1 mile north) and Vauxhall (1 mile east). Within a short drive, we also cover Kensington (3 miles west), St Pancras (3 miles north), Shoreditch (4 miles north-east), Walthamstow (8 miles north-east), Hoxton (4 miles north-east) and Whitechapel (4 miles north-east).

Why act early in Pimlico

Sealant is not the fix for every opening. Big openings, bundles of cables and plastic pipes may need batts, collars or wraps instead. If a gap isn’t suitable for sealant, we will tell you. Damp from a failed joint spreads quietly in older London brickwork and timber, and by the time it shows on a wall or ceiling in Pimlico, the repair is bigger than the sealant job would have been.

Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs. Ask us for a quote and we’ll explain what it covers.

Keeping the joints in good condition

A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:

  • Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks
  • Do not paint over fire sealant until it has cured
  • Get damaged fire seals looked at promptly
  • Keep general-purpose foam and caulk away from fire-stopping gaps

Avoid covering a sealed gap with anything that isn’t part of the tested detail. Repairs should use a matching fire-rated product. Ask us if you’re not sure which product was used.

It’s easiest to seal gaps while they’re few and easy to reach. Leave them and each new job adds another hole and the job gets bigger.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Pimlico

In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

What we do, step by step

A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and tidy away. Most jobs take a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. Parking in much of London is by permit or pay-and-display, so it helps to know what’s near you in Pimlico. It helps if you can point us to a visitor permit or a bay close to the door.

  1. We plan the order of work and access, floor by floor or flat by flat.
  2. Old, damaged or unsuitable sealant is removed.
  3. Gaps are cleaned of dust and loose material.
  4. The fire-rated or intumescent sealant is applied and tooled to the tested detail.
  5. We record what was done and flag anything that needs a different system.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
  • Tell us if parking is tricky

Can I do it myself?

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, 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.

A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.

Pimlico questions

Parking in Pimlico, as in most of London, takes a little planning: a visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the day run more smoothly.

Do you work in hotels near Pimlico?

Yes, we work for hotels as well as homes and businesses. Rooms can be done a few at a time, so the building stays open.

Will you assess my building’s fire safety?
