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. We work on linear gaps, pipe & cable gaps and flats & HMOs, and common reasons people get in touch are open holes round services passing through fire walls and seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers.
Commercial work in London comes with its own logistics: loading restrictions, building rules and tight access. Timings and access are agreed with the building before work starts in Vale of Health.

Do you need fire rated sealant in Vale of Health?
Buildings are refitted and reconfigured over the years. A house turned into flats or an HMO, or an office split into smaller units, brings new walls, new service routes and new gaps.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Old fire sealant that has split or come away
- Linear gaps at the head of walls
- Gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment
- Gaps left after a refit or conversion
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Christ Church, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.
Questions to ask before you book
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- What the cure time is
- The length of the guarantee
Fire rated sealant in Vale of Health: local notes
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. Many London buildings have tight access and loading restrictions, so out-of-hours working can be arranged where needed.
Vale of Health is in London, so parking needs planning: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. Managing a site like Christ Church Primary School? Then gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.

Advice
What the job involves on each surface
Door frames
Behind most architraves is a gap between frame and wall. We seal any open gap to the product’s tested details so the architrave can be refitted.
Masonry and concrete
Brick, block and concrete walls and floors are sealed with products tested in masonry. We clean out dust and debris before sealing so the seal has something sound to bond to.
Honest limits
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant will not do:
- Construction that doesn’t provide fire resistance on its own
- Doors that are not fire doors in the first place
- Assessing a building’s fire safety
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think before booking.
