Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Shanklin Village
Bigger jobs can be worked through in stages, flat by flat 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. If you have gaps left after a refit or conversion and seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers, we can help.
London blocks of flats carry pipes and cables through walls and floors in their common parts and service risers. For managing agents and building owners in Shanklin Village, that can mean fire-rated sealant around service openings as well as resealing in shared washrooms and kitchens.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

What we are called out for in Shanklin Village
Gaps also open up as buildings move: cracked or debonded sealant leaves an open route through the wall. Damage from cleaning, knocks and maintenance adds to it.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Unsealed gaps around fire door frames
- Unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall
- Gaps left after a refit or conversion
- Fire stopping disturbed by later work
If you let a flat or house near Belmont station, any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.
Questions to ask before you book
- What the cure time is
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- Is VAT in the price?
- What product goes in the joint
The process
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so there’s nothing for you to buy. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. Many London jobs are in flats, so we come ready for stairs, narrow hallways and shared entrances. If the building has a concierge, managing agent or access rules, tell us when you book.
- We start with the survey or action list, checking the size and surfaces of every gap.
- Anything that isn’t fit for the job comes out, and the gap is cleaned.
- Where the tested detail needs backing or fill, we fit it.
- We apply the fire-rated or intumescent sealant to the specified depth and tool it.
- We record the locations and products used for your records.
Getting ready for the visit
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Clear the area around the work

Advice
Keeping the joints in good condition
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Keep general-purpose foam and caulk away from fire-stopping gaps
- Photograph sealed gaps before they’re covered up
- Store the list of sealed gaps with your building paperwork
- Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks
Follow the cure time we give you before decorating over the sealant. Not every fire-rated sealant takes paint and we will tell you which one you have.
An open gap is not only a fire issue: noise, draughts and even pests can come through too. Sealing them early helps on every front.
Fire rated sealant in Shanklin Village: local notes
Many London buildings have tight access and loading restrictions, and out-of-hours working is possible to arrange. Workplaces and the common parts of blocks of flats in England need a fire risk assessment under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, and gaps around services are often picked up there. We apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details.
If you look after a building such as Harris Academy Sutton, gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices. Shanklin Village is in London, so parking needs planning: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book.

What sealant work cannot fix
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:
- Walls or floors that weren’t built to resist fire
- Assessing a building’s fire safety
- Issuing a fire rating or certificate for a building
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Pipe & cable gaps
- Plasterboard & masonry
- Door frames
- Flats & HMOs
- Service penetrations
- Linear gaps
Why deal with it now?
Squirting in whichever sealant is nearest doesn’t make a fire seal. Fire-rated products are tested in set gap sizes, depths and substrates, which is why we match the product and the method to each gap. 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 Shanklin Village, the repair is bigger than the sealant job would have been.
Combining jobs into one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We’ll give you a clear price for the lot.

DIY versus a professional finish
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
