FAQs: Stonebridge

Do you work in London buildings with loading restrictions?

Yes, most London buildings have access rules of some kind, and we plan around them. Share the building’s contractor rules and we will work to them. The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, which we allow for

Do you work on fire-rated sealing in hotels in Stonebridge?

Yes, where fire-rated sealant is the specified product. We match the product to the wall or floor and the services, and say if something other than sealant is needed.

Are your applicators CSCS-carded?

Yes. Our applicators hold CSCS cards, as many construction sites ask for.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months.

Which sealant will you use?

Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.

Will you quote for a small job?

We quote for single jobs as well as large packages and programmes. Send details for a fixed quote.

What about RAMS and site documents?

Each site asks for different documents, so tell us what you need and we will confirm it when we quote.

How we handle fire stopping in Stonebridge

No fire sealant works on its own: the evidence covers a specific product, wall or floor type, service, gap, depth and backing. Before we seal anything, we check the opening against the detail it is meant to follow. We work on pipe penetrations, joints between fire-resisting walls and floors and service gaps in risers, and the failures we’re asked to look at most are unsealed penetrations discovered above suspended ceilings and expanding foam used as fire stopping. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Stonebridge tend to want the same three things: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.

London has many occupied offices, blocks and mixed-use buildings where services are added and rerouted all the time. Where the specification names fire-rated sealant, it goes in exactly as the manufacturer’s test evidence shows for that wall or floor.

Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

Work for main contractors and building owners

FMs need a contractor who is easy to get on site. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.

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 Stonebridge can sit alongside others in a wider programme across Greater London.

Leave it or put it right?

An unsealed opening affects more than fire safety: they also carry noise, draughts and smells between rooms. Sealing them to the specified detail deals with the fire risk first, and the other benefits follow. Getting scaffold, permits or access booked in Stonebridge takes effort, so it makes sense to deal with every failing joint while access is in place.

The product called for affects the cost, as does the preparation each joint needs, such as cutting out, priming or new backing rod. Access, phasing and site rules also count.

Why us?

  • Health and safety: CHAS accredited
  • Fixed quotes based on photographs, drawings or a visit
  • 12 months’ guarantee on every job
  • Old sealant cut out, never sealed over

How the job changes by surface

Linear joints

Joints at the top of partitions may need to move as the slab above deflects. The specified product and backing for that movement are what goes in.

Cables and cable bundles

New data and power cables are the most common breach we see. Openings around new cables are resealed to the detail, and we tell you if the bundle exceeds what sealant covers.

How a job runs

We bring the products specified for the job, along with primers and backing rod. Joint faces are cleaned back to sound, dry surfaces, primer goes on where the manufacturer specifies it, and the sealant is tooled off neatly. The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, and parking near a job is rarely simple. If there’s a loading bay, a car park or a permit we can use, tell us when you send details.

  1. We ask for the product and detail your designer has specified.
  2. We sort the openings by the detail each one needs.
  3. Old or wrong materials are cut out.
  4. Mineral wool or other backing is fitted where required.
  5. We gun the sealant in to the specified depth around each service and tool it.
  6. Completed areas are checked with you, with the records agreed when we quoted.

Before we start on site

  • Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
  • Have the specification and drawings to hand
  • Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed

Fire stopping around Stonebridge: what changes locally

London’s office and residential buildings are refitted constantly, and each round of cabling or pipework can leave open penetrations. We install fire-rated sealant where it is specified and work within the building manager’s permit system. A 2-mile radius around Stonebridge takes in plenty of hotels. Hotels are divided into compartments, and refurbishments that add pipes and cables through bedroom and corridor walls leave gaps to close.

For an estates team at a campus like Imperial College London, which lies south-east of Stonebridge, summer M&E works are normally followed by a round of penetration sealing. On a hospital site such as Central Middlesex Hospital, 0.7 miles south of Stonebridge, fire-rated sealant goes in where the specification calls for it, with the work planned around the estates team’s permits.

Stonebridge is about 2 miles north of Acton, in Greater London.

Aftercare for building managers

Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:

  • Get seals inspected before ceilings and boxing close
  • Agree the fire-stopping specification before services go in
  • Make fire stopping part of every scope that crosses a fire-resisting wall
  • Keep general-purpose fillers away from compartment walls

After every round of M&E works, check that the openings created have been sealed. A short check at the end of each job saves a long hunt later.

Make reporting new openings part of every permit to work in service areas. It costs little and catches breaches early.

Common problems we fix in Stonebridge

Plenty of openings were simply never closed. Inspections, refurbishments and ceiling access usually bring them to light.

If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:

  • Unsealed penetrations discovered above suspended ceilings
  • Old intumescent sealant that has split away
  • Improvised or mixed-product fire seals
  • Expanding foam used as fire stopping

Shop fits in centres such as Stadium Retail Park, 1.6 miles to the north-west of Stonebridge, can bring new services through fire-resisting walls between units, which then need the specified seal.
