Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Auchterarder
Deciding which gaps need fire stopping isn’t our role; that comes from your fire risk assessor, designer or building control. What we do is apply the right product to that specification, properly and neatly. If you are dealing with unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall and gaps left after a refit or conversion, we can help.
If you look after holiday lets, a guest house or a community building in or near Auchterarder, washroom and kitchen sealant and any fire-rated joints need the same attention as anywhere.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same 12-month guarantee.

What fire rated sealant looks like in Auchterarder
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. Auchterarder has hotels and guest accommodation in and around it. Hotel work can be planned room by room, with out-of-hours working where needed.
For landlords with property near Gleneagles station, new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant. For buildings such as Auchterarder Parish Church, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.

Landlord and commercial work in Auchterarder
We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for.
From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Don’t fill fire-stopping gaps with ordinary foam or silicone
- Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks
- Keep the record of products and locations with your fire safety documents
- Keep pictures of seals that will be hidden
Keep the record we give you with the building’s fire safety documents. It helps whoever checks the building next.
Small gaps around services are simple to deal with while there are only a few. Over time, more work adds more holes and the job gets bigger.
The process
Good joint work is mostly preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. In total, it generally takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. Around Auchterarder, distance and access matter more than parking. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints, and the visit is planned around that.
- We begin by agreeing the list of gaps from your assessor’s or designer’s requirements.
- We measure every gap and note what it’s in and what passes through.
- Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out.
- We fit backing where needed and apply the fire-rated sealant to depth.
- We hand over a list of locations and products for your records.
How to prepare
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

Advice
What affects the cost of fire rated sealant
For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- The number and length of the joints
- Whether the work is at height
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
Helping us quote
What to tell us when you ask for a quote:
- The address or postcode of the job
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- The rough size of the job
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
Call for a quick quote, or send an email if you’d rather. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we’ll talk you through the work before giving you a price.
Do you need fire rated sealant in Auchterarder?
Gaps also open up as buildings move: cracked or debonded sealant leaves an open route through the wall. Damage from cleaning, knocks and maintenance adds to it.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment
- Open joints along the top of partitions
- Ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed
- Open holes round services passing through fire walls
Schools such as Community School of Auchterarder are buildings too, and service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.

What we can’t put right
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Sign-off of the building, which sits with building control or your assessor
- Fire risk assessments, which need a qualified assessor
- Large holes that need a different fire-stopping system
Not sure which it is? You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will tell you honestly.

Questions from Auchterarder
Will you come out to Auchterarder?
Yes, Auchterarder is covered. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
I let a flat near Gleneagles station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us about the property, and we will send you a clear quote.
Will you leave a mess?
No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
Is there any odour?
Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
Most of the time, yes. We will explain which colours are available.
Are you insured?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, and we’ve been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
Do you do fire sealant around door frames?
Yes. The joint between frame and wall is sealed with a fire-rated sealant. The door, its seals and closer are for a door specialist.
What do you put in the joint?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what we’re using.
Surface by surface
Plasterboard walls
In plasterboard walls, the condition of the board edge matters. Loose material is removed so the sealant has a firm edge.
Door frames
The gap between a door frame and the wall around it needs sealing as well as the door itself. We fill it with a fire-rated product suited to the materials either side.
