How fire rated sealant works in Na h-Eileanan Siar
Where services or frames pass through a fire-resisting wall or floor, the gap around them needs a fire-rated seal. Each gap is sealed to the product maker’s tested detail for its size and substrate, with a record of the products and locations if you need one. We are often asked to deal with gaps left after a refit or conversion and unsealed gaps around fire door frames, on linear gaps, pipe & cable gaps and plasterboard & masonry.
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you. The work normally takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access, depending on how much there is to do.
- We go through the gaps on your list or survey and check each one’s size and substrate.
- Anything that is not fit for the job comes out, and the gap is cleaned.
- Backing or fill is fitted where the product’s tested detail calls for it.
- The sealant goes in to the depth its detail sets, then it’s tooled off.
- Locations and products are noted so you have them on file.

Fire rated sealant across Na h-Eileanan Siar: local notes
Our fire rated sealant work across Na h-Eileanan Siar covers washrooms, kitchens and fire-rated joints, in Stornoway, Tarbert and Plasterfield and well beyond. Work can be planned room by room, and out of hours where needed.
Our work covers the whole of Scotland, Na h-Eileanan Siar included. Longer journeys are planned in advance, and outdoor work around the weather. Coastal guest houses and holiday lets in Na h-Eileanan Siar can see heavy use in busy months, which is hard on sealant and grout, and the weather is hard on the outside too.
Stornoway: Whether the job is in Stornoway itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish. In and around Stornoway, as anywhere, good fire rated sealant starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
How we quote for fire rated sealant
We don’t publish a price list, because no two jobs are the same. The quote depends on:
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- The size of the job
- Which sealant suits the joint
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk for an honest opinion and a quote.
Asking for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- Roughly how big the job is
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- Where the property is
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
Want a quote for fire rated sealant? Please send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details. You will know what we plan to do, and what it will cost, before any work begins.
What happens if it’s left?
A quick fill with any sealant to hand is not fire stopping. A fire-rated product only performs as tested when it’s installed to its tested detail, so both the product and the method matter.
What your quote should include
- Which colour the sealant will be
- How long the guarantee is
- When the joint can take water or movement
- How much experience the applicator has
Common problems we fix in Na h-Eileanan Siar
Door frames are a common weak spot. The architrave hides the gap between frame and wall, so it’s easy to leave unsealed when doors are changed.
The problems people usually mention when they call include:
- Holes left by a change of layout
- Gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment
- Open gaps behind door architraves
- Fire seals that have cracked with movement
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we’ll give you a quote.
We also work for property managers and facilities teams. Several sites can be quoted together, and we are fully insured for the work.
Should I try it myself first?
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
Na h-Eileanan Siar questions
Is there any odour?
Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.

We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. You will get a clear quote before we start.
