Fire rated sealant in Westfield, done properly
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 unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall and gaps filled with a product that isn’t fire-rated, we can help.
If you run a pub, café, guest house or shop in or near Westfield, the washrooms and kitchen need the same attention as a big site.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Surface by surface
Door frames
A door can only do its job if the gap behind its frame is sealed too. We fill it with a fire-rated product suited to the materials either side.
Linear gaps
A linear joint may need to allow for movement as well as fire. We choose a product and depth that suit the gap and the movement, following the tested detail.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Doors that are not fire doors in the first place
- Big openings where sealant alone is not the tested solution
- Sign-off of the building, which sits with building control or your assessor

Fire rated sealant around Westfield
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 apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details.
If you let a flat or house near Woking station, any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product. Managing a site like Westfield Primary School? Then gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St Mark's Church, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.

DIY versus a professional finish
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
For landlords and businesses
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. Several properties can go on one quote.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Don’t fill fire-stopping gaps with ordinary foam or silicone
- File the fire-stopping record where your assessor can find it
- Report cracked or damaged seals as soon as you notice them
- Ask which product was used before you paint
Tell other trades that the gaps have been sealed, and make sure anything they disturb is resealed with a suitable product. Later work is a common cause of damaged fire stopping.
Open gaps don’t only matter in a fire: they also let noise, draughts and sometimes pests through. Dealing with them early helps with all of these.
What happens on the day
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. A visit to Westfield is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.
- Access to each area is agreed so the work can run in order.
- We take out any damaged or unsuitable sealant.
- Gaps are cleaned of dust and loose material.
- The fire-rated or intumescent sealant is applied and tooled to the tested detail.
- Locations and products are written up and any gaps unsuitable for sealant are flagged.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

FAQs for Westfield
Do you cover smaller places like Westfield?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
I let a flat near Woking station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Is it worth trying it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes. Every job comes with a 12-month guarantee.
How long will you be here?
A typical job takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. We’ll confirm how long when we quote.
Will there be a smell?
Sometimes, a little. It fades as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
Are you insured?
Yes. We are fully insured.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, every time. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.

What happens if it’s left?
Waiting for the next refit can leave a gap open for years. Sealing the gap now is a contained job on its own. Around Westfield, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, and that is a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, along with when we can work on site. Ask us for a quote and we’ll go through it with you.
