Quotes for fire rated sealant in West Wickham
There’s no set price list. The quote depends on:
- The amount of work
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The product the joint needs
Doing several joints on one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We will send you a clear quote for the lot.
Asking for a quote
To make quoting easier, let us know:
- Where the property is
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Whether it has been sealed before
- A few photos by email, if you can
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is, and email pictures if that’s easy.
About our fire rated sealant in West Wickham
Door frame gaps, linear joints and holes around services all have their own details. We check the size and the substrate before choosing the product, then apply it to the depth its tested detail calls for. If you’re dealing with linear gaps at the head of walls and unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
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 West Wickham.
Every job is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Surface by surface
Door frames
Behind most architraves is a gap between frame and wall. Where it’s open, we seal it to the product’s details for that gap size before the trim goes back.
Plasterboard walls
In plasterboard walls, the condition of the board edge matters. Loose material is removed so the sealant has a firm edge.
How it works
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The job generally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are from start to finish.

What else we do in West Wickham
Workplaces and buildings in West Wickham
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, which is often where open fire-stopping gaps are first noticed. We work to the specification you’re given, installing the product to its tested details.
For buildings such as St Francis of Assisi, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building. As a London address, West Wickham can be tricky for parking: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book.

For landlords and businesses
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can go on one quote.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Leave it or put it right?
Paying for fire stopping that has to be redone is a false economy. If the details weren’t followed, the seal may need redoing when the building is next checked. In a flat in West Wickham, failed sealant seldom stays inside your own four walls: water can reach the neighbours below, and gaps in fire-rated joints affect the whole building.
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.

Signs you need fire rated sealant in West Wickham
Much fire stopping is hidden: above ceilings, inside risers and behind panels. Because nobody sees it, gaps go unnoticed until an assessor or surveyor looks.
People usually contact us after spotting one of these:
- Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
- Sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list
- Gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs
- Fire seals that have cracked with movement
Schools such as Oak Lodge Primary School are buildings too, and gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices.
