Should I try it myself first?
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into 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.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
Fire rated sealant in Seven Sisters, done properly
We can work through a building room by room or floor by floor, noting the locations and products as we go. That record is useful for your files and for whoever looks at the building next. Typical jobs include gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs and damaged fire sealant left by other trades, across flats & HMOs, plasterboard & masonry and linear gaps.
Across London, offices, shops, hotels, student halls and blocks of flats all need sealant work from time to time, from washroom silicone to fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables passing through walls. Out-of-hours working can be arranged where a building in Seven Sisters can’t close.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

How it works
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access and we leave things clean and tidy. In Seven Sisters, flats, stairs and shared entrances are part of the routine. If the building has a concierge, managing agent or access rules, tell us when you book.
- We begin by agreeing the list of gaps from your assessor’s or designer’s requirements.
- Each gap is measured and its substrate and service noted.
- Any non-fire-rated filler is removed and the faces cleaned.
- We fit backing where needed and apply the fire-rated sealant to depth.
- Every location is recorded with the product used for your records.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Tell us about any water getting in

Advice
What fire rated sealant looks like in Seven Sisters
Commercial buildings in London often have strict access rules and limited loading, 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.
For buildings such as Church of Holy Trinity, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there. As a London address, Seven Sisters can be tricky for parking: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

How we quote for fire rated sealant
The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- The number of rooms or windows
- Whether the work is at height
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- The number and length of the joints
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before work begins.
What to tell us for a quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- The rough size of the job
- The type of property
- If someone has resealed it before
- The problem you’ve noticed
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints.
What we can’t put right
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Problems with the door itself rather than the gap around the frame
- Sign-off of the building, which sits with building control or your assessor
- Openings too large for sealant, which need batts, boards or another system
If you are not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Service penetrations
- Flats & HMOs
- Pipe & cable gaps
- Linear gaps
- Door frames
- Plasterboard & masonry
Signs you need fire rated sealant in Seven Sisters
Lots of unsealed gaps appear long after the building was completed. Electricians, plumbers and data installers drill through walls and ceilings and the hole round the new service is not always sealed again.
The most common problems we see are:
- Joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey
- New service routes left unsealed after building work
- Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
- Gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs
Managing a site like Earlsmead Primary School? Then fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Flag any open gap you spot round a pipe or cable
- Include hidden areas like risers in routine checks
- Allow for resealing whenever new services are run
- Tell trades working in the building that fire seals must be put back
Look at the sealed gaps as part of your routine walk-rounds. Watch for cracking, gaps or seals that have been disturbed and have them put right.
A gap left open in a fire-resisting wall or floor lets smoke spread in ways the building wasn’t designed for. Closing it is normally a straightforward job.
Different surfaces, different methods
Plasterboard walls
Service holes in plasterboard are often rough and oversized. Where a hole is bigger than the sealant’s tested range, it needs another approach, and we’ll tell you.
Flats and HMOs
Flats and HMOs rely on fire separation between homes and the common parts. We seal the gaps your assessor has identified room by room.
