How the visit works
All our tools and materials come with us in the van. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. For a job in Seven Dials, parking and access are the things to plan: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space, which floor we are working on and whether there’s a lift.
- We begin by agreeing the list of gaps from your assessor’s or designer’s requirements.
- We measure every gap and note what it’s in and what passes through.
- Any non-fire-rated filler is removed.
- The specified fire-rated sealant goes in over any backing its detail requires.
- We hand over a list of locations and products for your files.

Advice
Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Seven Dials
A fire seal relies on being installed the way it was tested: the right depth, the right backing and the right product for the substrate. That detail is what we take care over. If you’re dealing with gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls and fire seals that have cracked with movement, we can put it right, on service penetrations, plasterboard & masonry and door frames alike.
In London’s blocks of flats, service risers and common parts have pipes and cables passing through walls and floors. For managing agents and building owners in Seven Dials, that can mean fire-rated sealant around service openings as well as resealing in shared washrooms and kitchens.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What the job involves on each surface
Door frames
Frame gaps are normally hidden behind the architrave. Where it’s open, we seal it to the product’s details for that gap size so the architrave can be refitted.
Service penetrations
New gaps tend to show up where services have been added. Old or unsuitable filler comes out before the right sealant goes in with backing where the detail needs it.

For buildings such as Soho Baptist Chapel, older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking.

Should I try it myself first?
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
Questions from Seven Dials
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Tottenham Court Road station?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Do you work for hotels and guest houses in Seven Dials?
Yes, hospitality work, including hotels, is part of what we do. Work can be planned room by room, and out-of-hours working can be arranged.
What fire rating will the seal have?
We don’t give ratings or certificates for our work. The requirement comes from your assessor, designer or building control, and we fit a product whose tested details meet it.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, and it traps any mould or water underneath. It all has to come out first.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Just list everything you need.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
What information do you need?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. If you can, email a few pictures.
What do you put in the joint?
The product depends on the job: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
When something else is needed
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:
- Deciding what fire stopping a building needs
- Problems with the door itself rather than the gap around the frame
- Openings too large for sealant, which need batts, boards or another system
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Quotes for fire rated sealant in Seven Dials
Jobs vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- The number of rooms or windows
- The size of the job
- Access and height
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.
What to tell us for a quote
When you contact us, these details help:
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- Where the property is
Need a quote? Please phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the job. We’ll explain what we’d do and send you a clear quote before any work starts.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Aftercare is simple:
- Take photos of fire stopping before ceilings or boxing go back
- Store the list of sealed gaps with your building paperwork
- Include fire stopping when you schedule refits
- Keep general-purpose foam and caulk away from fire-stopping gaps
Include fire stopping in your regular building checks. Look for cracks, gaps or sealant that has been cut or pulled out and have them put right.
It’s easiest to seal gaps while they’re few and easy to reach. Over time, more work adds more holes.
