Fire rated sealant across Wallington and nearby, with old sealant always removed completely and a 12-month guarantee.
- Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
- Gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls
- Linear gaps at the head of walls
Aftercare tips
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- File the fire-stopping record where your assessor can find it
- Allow for resealing whenever new services are run
- Report cracked or damaged seals as soon as you notice them
- Take pictures of fire stopping before ceilings or boxing go back
Leave the sealant to cure fully before painting near it. Some fire-rated sealants can be painted and some can’t and we will tell you which one you have.
When you plan work that goes through walls or ceilings, plan the fire stopping too. Catching it then saves a separate visit later.
About our fire rated sealant in Wallington
A fire seal relies on being installed the way it was tested: the right depth, the right backing and the right product for the substrate. That detail is what we take care over, one gap at a time. Typical jobs include gaps left after a refit or conversion and cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant, across plasterboard & masonry, linear gaps and service penetrations.
London’s offices, shops, hotels, student accommodation and blocks of flats all have joints to look after, from washroom silicone to fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables passing through walls. Where a building in Wallington needs to stay open, work can be planned outside normal hours.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once the job is done.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
How it works
We keep the work tidy and contained to the area we are working on, so you can get on with your day. Expect the work to take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. In a London area like Wallington, the main things to plan are parking and access: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space, which floor we are working on and whether there’s a lift.
- Before starting, we go through the specification or action list with you.
- Each gap is measured and its substrate and service noted.
- Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out and the gap cleaned.
- The specified fire-rated sealant goes in over any backing its detail requires.
- We hand over a list of locations and products for your files.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Mention any tricky access

What else we do in Wallington
Common problems we fix in Wallington
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 looks sealed, but it isn’t fire-rated.
People generally contact us after spotting one of these:
- Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
- Gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs
- New service routes left unsealed after building work
- Open holes round services passing through fire walls
For buildings such as Church of the Holy Trinity, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.

Wallington: your questions answered
I let a flat near Wallington station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we will send you a clear quote.
Is parking a problem for a job in Wallington?
London parking needs a little planning, so let us know about permits, bays or a driveway when you book. The visit is then planned around what’s available.
Will there be a smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, which fades as it sets. Opening a window helps.
How long does the job take?
Typically it takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. Larger jobs naturally take longer.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We’re approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.
Is it messy?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.
Can I use normal mastic around a pipe through a fire wall?
No. Where a fire-rated seal is needed, it has to be a product tested for that use, installed to its details.
When it is not the sealant
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Deciding what fire stopping a building needs
- Big openings where sealant alone isn’t the tested solution
- Problems with the door itself rather than the gap around the frame
If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
