Fire-rated sealant in South Oxhey, Greater London

What sealant work cannot fix
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Construction that does not provide fire resistance on its own
- Big openings where sealant alone is not the tested solution
- Problems with the door itself rather than the gap around the frame

Fire rated sealant in South Oxhey
Later work by other trades often breaks through fire stopping, especially in flats, HMOs, offices and schools. One new cable or pipe can leave a gap that nobody goes back to seal. We seal them with a product tested for that kind of gap. If you have joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey and standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap, we can put it right.
In London’s blocks of flats, service risers and common parts have pipes and cables passing through walls and floors. In South Oxhey, building managers may need both fire-rated sealant around those openings and new sealant in shared washrooms.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee, so you’re covered after we have gone.

Aftercare tips
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Never patch a fire seal with standard sealant
- Include hidden areas like risers in routine checks
- Store the list of sealed gaps with your building paperwork
- Check whether a sealant can be painted before decorating over it
Follow the cure time we give you before decorating over the sealant. Some fire-rated sealants can be painted and some can’t.
If a fire risk assessment has flagged a gap, do not leave it for the next one. Get it sealed and recorded so the item can be closed.
When to call us in South Oxhey
Movement in the structure can open gaps too: a seal that cracks or pulls away leaves a path for smoke. Knocks, maintenance and building work damage it further.
People generally contact us after spotting one of these:
- Open joints along the top of partitions
- Gaps left after a refit or conversion
- Fire seals that have cracked with movement
- Gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls
If you look after a building such as Greenfields Primary School, service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.

South Oxhey questions
Is parking a problem for a job in South Oxhey?
In much of London, parking needs planning: a visitor permit or a bay close to the door helps a lot.
I let a flat near Carpenders Park station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Can you fill the gap behind a fire door frame?
Yes, where the gap suits a sealant detail. Our work is the gap around the frame.
Do the sealants smell?
Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator, and we are fully insured.
What sealant do you use?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice.
Can you give us a record of the work?
Yes. When the job is done, we give you the locations and products. If you need pictures or a set layout, ask when you get a quote.
What should I tell you?
Just the basics: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. After that, simply ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Leave it or put it right?
Doing it once, properly, beats doing it twice. Work that doesn’t follow the tested detail may have to come out again when the building is next checked. In a flat in South Oxhey, failed sealant seldom stays inside your own four walls: water from a shower or window joint can reach the flat below, and gaps in fire-stopping matter to everyone in the building.
Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

Workplaces and buildings in South Oxhey
Commercial buildings in London often have strict access rules and limited loading, 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 work to the specification you’re given, installing the product to its tested details.
As a London address, South Oxhey can be tricky for parking: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. For buildings such as Oxhey Chapel, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.

Should I try it myself first?
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.
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. Everything old must be removed first.

Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works.
How the visit works
When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. Many London jobs are in flats, so we come ready for stairs, narrow hallways and shared entrances. Mention any building rules, key holders or managing agents 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.
- Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out.
- We fit backing where needed and apply the fire-rated sealant to depth.
- Every location is recorded with the product used for your records.
Before we arrive
- Move anything stored near the joints
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
