Looking after it afterwards

Looking after new joints is easy:

  • Take photos of fire stopping before ceilings or boxing go back
  • Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
  • Ask which product was used before you paint
  • Keep the record of products and locations with your fire safety documents

Keep the record we give you with the building’s fire safety documents. It saves time at the next inspection or assessment.

When you plan work that goes through walls or ceilings, plan the fire stopping too. Catching it then saves a separate visit later.

Fire rated sealant in Abronhill, 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. We work on service penetrations, linear gaps and plasterboard & masonry, and the jobs we see most are new service routes left unsealed after building work and fire seals that have cracked with movement.

In a smaller place like Abronhill, commercial jobs are more likely to be a hotel, guest house, school, surgery or community hall than an office block. All of them have washrooms, kitchens and fire-rated joints that need looking after.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee in Abronhill and across North Lanarkshire.

What happens on the day

We bring everything the job needs with us. Once we have agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. In smaller Scottish places, parking is generally less of an issue than access and distance. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work, and the visit is planned around that.

  1. We go through the gaps on your list or survey and check each one’s size and substrate.
  2. Anything that isn’t fit for the job comes out, and the gap is cleaned.
  3. Backing or fill is fitted where the product’s tested detail calls for it.
  4. The sealant goes in to the depth its detail sets, then it’s tooled off.
  5. We record the locations and products used for your records.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before
  • On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

Why act early in Abronhill

Fire-rated sealants are less forgiving than ordinary ones. Depth, backing and surface preparation all affect how a seal performs, and we work to the product details every time. Around Abronhill, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.

We don’t show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will talk you through it.

When it isn’t the sealant

Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:

  • Assessing a building’s fire safety
  • Certifying a building or signing off its fire safety
  • Problems with the door itself rather than the gap around the frame

Not sure which it is? You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we seal

  • Service penetrations
  • Plasterboard & masonry
  • Pipe & cable gaps
  • Linear gaps
  • Flats & HMOs
  • Door frames

What the job involves on each surface

Service penetrations

Different services need different details: metal pipes, cables and plastic pipes are not treated the same. We follow the manufacturer’s tested detail for each and we flag any that need another system.

Plasterboard walls

Plasterboard partitions are common in flats, offices and conversions. We use a product tested in that kind of wall for each gap size.

Fire rated sealant in Abronhill: local notes

In Scotland, building work comes under the Building (Scotland) Regulations and their technical handbooks. We install fire-rated sealant to the product’s tested details, though we don’t certify buildings or do fire risk assessments. Abronhill has hotels and guest accommodation in and around it. Hotel work can be planned room by room, with out-of-hours working where needed.

Letting a property close to Cumbernauld station? Then any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.

Common problems we fix in Abronhill

Sealant applied too thin, without the backing its detail needs, or onto dust will not perform as it was tested. We see plenty of fire stopping that was hurried.

If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:

  • Fire stopping disturbed by later work
  • Open holes round services passing through fire walls
  • Linear gaps at the head of walls
  • Old fire sealant that has split or come away

If you look after a building such as Abronhill High School, service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.

Before you book anyone

  • What insurance they hold
  • Who does the work, and how experienced they are
  • What the cure time is
  • Whether all the old sealant comes out first

10 questions to ask before booking

Abronhill: your questions answered

Is Abronhill within the area you cover?

Yes, Abronhill is covered. We work across all of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

Do you take on hotel work around Abronhill?

Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. Rooms can be done a few at a time, so the building stays open.

Do you remove the old sealant?

Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint.

What sealant do you use?

Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what we’re using.

Should I try DIY first?

For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.

Where is Mr Mastic based?

Our base is in Crawley, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.

Do you guarantee your work?

Yes. Every job comes with a 12-month guarantee.
