Why it’s worth doing now in Walham Green
Fire-rated sealants are less forgiving than ordinary ones. How it’s installed changes how it performs, so we follow the maker’s details on every gap. Damp from a failed joint spreads quietly in older London brickwork and timber, and by the time it shows on a wall or ceiling in Walham Green, the repair is bigger than the sealant job would have been.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re unsure, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

Workplaces and buildings in Walham Green
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, and gaps around services are often picked up there. We work to the specification you’re given, installing the product to its tested details. Commercial buildings in London often have strict access rules and limited loading, so out-of-hours working can be arranged where needed.
Letting a property close to Imperial Wharf station? Then fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through. Walham Green is in London, so parking needs planning: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are in most cases.

- Before starting, we go through the specification or action list with you.
- Each gap is measured and its substrate and service noted.
- Any non-fire-rated filler is removed and the faces cleaned.
- The specified fire-rated sealant goes in over any backing its detail requires.
- Every location is recorded with the product used.

Walham Green questions
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Imperial Wharf station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Do you work in hotels near Walham Green?
Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. Rooms can be done a few at a time, so the building stays open.
How long does the job take?
Most jobs take a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building, including the preparation. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
Do you work in Walham Green?
Yes. From our base in Crawley, we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland, and that includes Walham Green.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before applying anything new.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
Which products do you use?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, picked for each joint. We’ll tell you what we’re using and why.
What does fire rated sealant cost?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Ask us for a quote.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
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 doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Signs you need fire rated sealant in Walham Green
In some buildings the gap was filled with the wrong thing in the first place: general-purpose foam, everyday silicone or caulk where a fire-rated seal was needed. It may look fine, but it isn’t a fire-rated seal.
Look out for any of the following:
- Open holes round services passing through fire walls
- Fire seals that have cracked with movement
- Door frames with gaps between frame and wall
- Holes left by a change of layout
Schools such as Chelsea Independent College are buildings too, and fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.
What to look for in a quote
- What the cure time is
- How long the guarantee is
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it

Keeping the joints in good condition
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Don’t paint over fire sealant until it has cured
- Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks
- Plan fire stopping into any work that goes through walls or floors
- Flag any open gap you spot round a pipe or cable
Let contractors know where fire stopping has been done, and ask them to reseal anything they cut through. A lot of damaged fire stopping comes from later work.
Small gaps around services are simple to deal with while there are only a few. Over time, more work adds more holes.
How we quote for fire rated sealant
For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:
