Fire stopping in Feltham, done properly
Our applicators are CSCS-carded, and we are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member. We don’t hold a third-party fire-stopping installer certificate. We install the specified fire-rated sealant to its tested detail, and our workmanship carries a 12-month guarantee. We work on cable penetrations, linear gaps at wall heads and pipe penetrations, and what we are called in for most is fire-rated sealant that has cracked or shrunk back and head-of-wall gaps with no fire seal. For commercial sealant work in Feltham, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
After a fit-out or new cabling in a London building, risers and ceiling voids are where open service gaps tend to be found. If sealant is the specified product we fit it to its tested detail, and if the detail needs something else, you’ll hear it from us.
Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we’re clear about what is covered before work starts.

Why it’s worth doing now in Feltham
Fire stopping is a regular point raised at inspections and handover. Late discoveries can delay handover while openings are reopened and resealed, so earlier action pays back. Repeat call-outs disrupt occupied London buildings, so cutting the old sealant out fully and doing it right once is the better route.
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits, along with the time of year for external work.
Why us?

Aftercare for building managers
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. Specifically:
- File the specified details where the next contractor can find them
- Arrange inspection before areas are covered up
- Look above ceilings when tiles are lifted for other jobs
- Leave fire sealant to cure fully before covering it
Store the specified product details somewhere the next contractor can find them. It makes later repairs much easier to match.
On fit-outs, get the fire-stopping specification agreed before the services go in. Details can then be picked to suit the actual pipes, cables and ducts.
Fire stopping in Feltham: the local picture
Fire stopping of openings and penetrations in England falls under Approved Document B. The national BS 476 classes are due to drop out of it from 2 September 2029, leaving the European BS EN 13501-2 route, subject to transitional arrangements. Either way, we install the specified product to its tested detail. Every new tenant in a London building tends to bring new cabling, and with it new holes through compartment walls. Penetrations are sealed with the specified product, to its tested detail, under the building’s own permit rules.
For a site team at a college like West Thames College - Skills Centre, 0.9 miles to the east of Feltham, fire-rated sealing is best scheduled after the summer works. In a retail centre such as Treaty Centre, which lies north-east of Feltham, any fire-resisting wall between units that is crossed by new services needs sealing to the tested detail.
Feltham is about 6 miles south-west of Ealing, in Greater London. Any commercial site in Feltham is covered, whether it’s a single job or part of a planned programme. Across Greater London, 764 places are covered, including Feltham. There’s a separate page for London, about 14 miles away.

Owners, agents and contractors
We take on planned maintenance as well as one-off repairs: working through a building or an estate in stages that fit your budget. Sites in Feltham can sit alongside others in a wider programme across Greater London.
Facilities managers want contractors who arrive with the paperwork sorted. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
Paperwork matters too. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are where general trades tend to cut corners.
Common questions from Feltham clients
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Ashford Hospital?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Can you work at a site such as Maple Industrial Estate, by Feltham?
Yes. We cover Feltham and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Maple Industrial Estate. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
Will you sign off the seals for us?
No. We don’t certify or sign off fire stopping, and we hold no third-party fire-stopping installer certificate. We work to the specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No. We cut the old material out and clean the joint back before sealing, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.
Can you send site paperwork?
Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Do the same rules apply to fire stopping in Scotland?
Scotland sets its own building regulations, with Technical Handbooks, and England uses Approved Document B. Either way, we install the specified sealant to its tested detail.
Can one quote cover more than one building?
Yes. A group of buildings can go on one quote, with one point of contact across South East England, Greater London and Scotland.
Do you need fire stopping in Feltham?
Openings in fire-resisting walls normally appear when services are added or changed. A new cable pulled by an electrician, a pipe rerouted by a plumber or a data run drilled through a riser can leave the hole behind. Over a few years of fit-outs, a wall can collect a lot of these.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- Hidden openings found during inspections
- Improvised or mixed-product fire seals
- Penetration schedules that need working through
- Seals disturbed by maintenance and left open
Theatres, wards and plant rooms at sites like Ashford Hospital, 2.6 miles west of Feltham, all have compartment walls crossed by services.
What your quote should include
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
- How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
- How they handle RAMS and site documents
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?

On site: what to expect
Before any cutting starts, the area is protected: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. The work itself typically takes longer where risers, ceiling voids or occupied floors have to be worked through in sequence, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. Planning a London job such as one in Feltham starts with access. Send the building rules and access times with your enquiry.
- We start with your penetration schedule, drawings or specification.
- We plan the sequence of floors, risers and voids with you.
- Each opening is checked for wall or floor type, service, gap and depth.
- Unsuitable material is removed and the opening cleaned.
- The specified backing and sealant go in to depth and are finished neatly.
- We tell you about openings that need a different product.
What we need from you
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
- Warn occupants and staff about the work
- Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs
