Fire rated sealant in Avoch, done properly
A fire seal relies on being installed the way it was tested: the right depth, the right backing and the right product for the substrate. That is the part we focus on, one gap at a time. We are often asked to deal with gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls and gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment, on door frames, plasterboard & masonry and linear gaps.
Work in a place like Avoch is planned ahead, journey included, so it can be fitted around bookings or opening times where possible.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, whatever its size.

How the visit works
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it normally takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. Outdoor work around Avoch depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- We go through the gaps on your list or survey and check each one’s size and substrate.
- Old or unsuitable sealant is cut out and the gap cleaned.
- Backing or fill is fitted where the product’s tested detail calls for it.
- Fire-rated or intumescent sealant is applied to the right depth and tooled.
- Locations and products are noted so you have them on file.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Mention any tricky access
- Let us know about parking restrictions

What happens if it’s left?
If an assessor has flagged gaps, it makes sense to close them before the next review. Getting them done and written up gives you evidence that the item was dealt with. In a place like Avoch, small leaks are easy to put off, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.
There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a quick quote, please send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will talk you through it.

Fire rated sealant around Avoch
If you run a hotel, guest house or holiday let in a coastal place like Avoch, heavy use in the busy months is hard on washroom and kitchen sealant, and any building work there should leave fire-rated joints made good. Scotland has its own building regulations, the Building (Scotland) Regulations, with technical handbooks. Fire-rated sealant is installed to the manufacturer’s tested details; we don’t certify buildings or carry out fire risk assessments.
For jobs in and around Avoch, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.

- Gaps filled with a product that is not fire-rated
- Damaged fire sealant left by other trades
- Old fire sealant that has split or come away

What the job involves on each surface
Door frames
Our work is the joint between frame and wall. The door leaf, its seals and closer need a door specialist.
Service penetrations
A copper pipe, a cable and a plastic pipe can all need different fire-stopping details. Each one is sealed to the product’s tested detail and we flag any that need another system.
When it isn’t the sealant
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- A wall that isn’t a fire-resisting element to begin with
- Doors that aren’t fire doors in the first place
- Certifying a building or signing off its fire safety
Not sure which it is? You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
