Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.
On site: what to expect
Before we leave any area, the masking comes off, the area is cleaned and every joint is checked, ready for your sign-off. If an area should be left alone while the sealant cures, we say how long and put signs out. All of Greater London is in the ULEZ, and kerbside space in Grange Park can be scarce. If there’s a loading bay, a car park or a permit we can use, tell us when you send details.
- First we go through the drawings, schedule or specification for the seals.
- Every penetration is compared with its detail: wall or floor type, service, gap size and depth.
- Anything that doesn’t belong in the opening, such as expanding foam or general-purpose filler, is removed.
- We fit the backing the detail asks for, to the stated depth.
- Fire-rated or intumescent sealant is gunned in to the specified depth, then tooled.
- If an opening needs something other than sealant, we tell you instead of improvising.
Preparing the site
- Let us know about inductions and permits
- Warn occupants and staff about the work
- Make sure the joints can be reached

Fire stopping in Grange Park
The test standards are BS EN 1366-3 for penetration seals and BS EN 1366-4 for linear joints and the results are classified to BS EN 13501-2. A rating such as EI 60 only holds when the product is installed as it was tested. Reproducing the tested arrangement on site is the part we take care of. If you are dealing with openings found when ceilings come down for a refit and open linear gaps along the top of fire-resisting walls, we can help, on small duct penetrations where the tested detail allows, joints between fire-resisting walls and floors and cable penetrations alike. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Grange Park? Mastic Doctor has worked for contractors, FMs and building owners since 2005.
London has many occupied offices, blocks and mixed-use buildings where services are added and rerouted all the time. Each service penetration gets fire-rated or intumescent sealant if that’s what is specified, laid to the product’s tested arrangement.
Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months, wherever the site is. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

Keeping the joints sound
After handover, these steps help:
- Ask which product is in place before decorating
- Make fire stopping part of every scope that crosses a fire-resisting wall
- File the specified details where the next contractor can find them
- Foam or ordinary sealant is never a fire-seal repair
Allow the manufacturer’s stated cure time before boxing in or decorating. Not every fire-rated product can be painted, so check the product data first.
Keep a register of where seals are and what they are made of. It tells the next contractor exactly what to reinstate.
FAQs: Grange Park
What does the BS 476 change mean for fire-rated sealant in Grange Park?
From 2 September 2029, Approved Document B drops its BS 476 references in favour of BS EN 13501-2 classification, with transitional arrangements. Our part doesn’t change: the specified product, to its tested detail.
Can you work on a hospital site such as The Cavell Hospital?
Yes, hospitals are one of the sectors we cover. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
Who decides which product is used?
Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.
What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?
The duty to manage asbestos sits with the building’s dutyholder, so for older buildings we ask for the asbestos register first. Work pauses if suspect material is found, until it has been tested.
What do you charge?
Each job is quoted on its own details. To get one, ring 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings with a description of the work.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No. We cut the old material out and clean the joint back before sealing, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.

Penetration seals near Grange Park
Grange Park has several hotels close by, all within 2 miles. Hotels are divided into compartments, and refurbishments that add pipes and cables through bedroom and corridor walls leave gaps to close. With tenants changing and fit-outs following, London buildings see service routes altered again and again. Penetrations are sealed with the specified product, to its tested detail, under the building’s own permit rules.
Hotels like Holtwhites Hotel (1 mile north-east of Grange Park) are refurbished in phases, and each phase can open up compartment walls. Older community buildings such as Church of St Mary Magdalene that have been rewired or given new heating can have service gaps through walls worth checking against the specification. Shop fits on retail sites such as Colosseum Retail Park (1.9 miles east of Grange Park) can bring new services through fire-resisting walls between units, to be sealed with the specified product.

General trades versus a specialist
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
How the job changes by surface
Metal pipes
Metal pipes conduct heat, so their details often call for extra measures along the pipe, and some details add wrapping or a set length of insulation. If the detail needs something beyond sealant, we tell you.
Small ducts
Some fire-rated sealant details cover small ducts. Bigger ducts and fire-resisting ductwork are normally handled with other products, and we’ll say if that applies.
For managing agents and facilities managers
We work for building owners and managing agents on sealant work across single buildings or whole portfolios. One quote can cover more than one site, so there’s one set of paperwork to deal with.
CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, we’re straightforward to vet for your supplier list. Our insurance certificate can be sent along with the quote.
