Do you need fire rated sealant in Badentoy Park?
Sealant applied too thin, without the backing its detail needs, or onto dust won’t perform as it was tested. Rushed fire stopping is common particularly when it was the last job before handover.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Damaged fire sealant left by other trades
- Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
- Open holes round services passing through fire walls
- Open gaps behind door architraves
For landlords with property near Portlethen station, any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.

Fire rated sealant in Badentoy Park, done properly
Ordinary silicone or decorators’ caulk in a fire-stopping gap is not a fire-rated seal. We cut out the wrong material and the gap is resealed with a product tested for that use. We are often asked to deal with gaps left after a refit or conversion and sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list, on door frames, plasterboard & masonry and linear gaps.
For holiday lets, guest houses and community buildings in or near Badentoy Park, the washrooms and kitchens need the same care as any city building, and fire-rated joints should be kept in good order.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
What affects the cost of fire rated sealant
For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:
- The number and length of the joints
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Any mould that needs treating
- Which sealant suits the joint
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
What to tell us for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- The type of property
- The rough size of the job
- The address or postcode of the job
- How we’d reach the joints
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and email photos if that’s easy.

Aftercare tips
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Ask which product was used before you paint
- Include fire stopping when you schedule refits
- Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
- Keep photos of seals that will be hidden
Don’t add foam, filler or ordinary sealant over a fire seal. If it needs repair, use the same type of product. We can tell you which product we used.
Leave a fire-stopping gap open and smoke can move through the building much more easily. Sealing it early is a simple step to take.
How it works
There’s no need to move everything out, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building for a typical job. In smaller Scottish places, parking is normally less of an issue than access and distance. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints, and the visit is planned around that.
- Access to each area is agreed so the work can run in order.
- We take out any damaged or unsuitable sealant.
- Gaps are cleaned of dust and loose material.
- We apply and tool the sealant to the product’s tested detail.
- We record what was done and flag anything that needs a different system.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the work
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

How do Scotland’s building regulations apply to fire-rated sealant in Badentoy Park?
Scotland has its own building regulations, the Building (Scotland) Regulations, with their own technical handbooks. Whatever the rules, fire-rated sealant has to be installed to the manufacturer’s tested details, and that’s how we fit it. We don’t certify buildings or do fire risk assessments; your assessor or building control can tell you what’s required.
Is standard sealant good enough for a fire gap?
No. It looks sealed but won’t perform as fire stopping. A tested fire-rated product is needed.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and you will get one quote.
Can you give us a record of the work?
Yes. Every gap we seal is listed with the product used.
Do you work in flats, HMOs and commercial buildings?
Yes, in flats, HMOs, schools, offices and other buildings, occupied or empty. Let us know the building’s hours and we will plan the work to suit.
Should I try DIY first?
Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
Do you carry out fire risk assessments?
No, we don’t assess buildings. When your assessor or designer has set out what’s needed, we can quote for the fire-rated sealant items.
When it isn’t the sealant
In fairness, some problems need a different trade:
- Problems with the door itself rather than the gap around the frame
- Deciding what fire stopping a building needs
- A wall that is not a fire-resisting element to begin with
If in doubt, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll say what we think before booking.
