Fire rated sealant in Bieldside

How we handle fire rated sealant in Bieldside

Ordinary silicone or decorators’ caulk in a fire-stopping gap isn’t a fire-rated seal. Anything unsuitable comes out first and the gap is resealed with a product tested for that use. If you have sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list and door frames with gaps between frame and wall, we can help, on plasterboard & masonry, flats & HMOs and door frames alike.

In Scotland’s cities, hotels and student accommodation need sealant work done without emptying the building, so work in Bieldside can be planned room by room, and out of hours where needed.

Each job carries a 12-month guarantee.

When to call us in Bieldside

Gaps around door frames are easily missed. The gap between the frame and the wall is hidden behind the architrave, so it can be left open when a door is replaced.

Common reasons people contact us are:

  • Sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list
  • Fire stopping disturbed by later work
  • Gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs
  • New service routes left unsealed after building work

Managing a site like Cults Academy? Then gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices.

Choosing a sealant specialist

What happens if it’s left?

An open gap in a fire-resisting wall is a route for smoke and fire. A proper seal lets the wall do its job again, and the work involved is often modest. In a tenement flat in Bieldside, a failed seal is rarely just your problem: a leak can come through the ceiling below, and gaps in shared walls or fire-rated joints matter to every flat.

A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re unsure, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk for an honest opinion and a quote.

Why us?

  • Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
  • 180+ five-star Google reviews
  • We leave the area clean and tidy
  • Homes, businesses and hotels

Your questions about fire rated sealant in Bieldside

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Aberdeen station?

Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details for a clear quote.

Is Bieldside in your area for fire rated sealant?

Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Bieldside is part of that. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing.

How much does fire rated sealant cost in Bieldside?

Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.

Is it OK to seal over old sealant?

No, and we never do. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new bead soon lifts. The old sealant has to come out completely.

Can you quote for more than one area?

Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and you will get one quote.

Are you fully insured?

Yes. We are fully insured for every job we do.

Do you certify the fire stopping?

Ratings and certification sit with the product’s test evidence and whoever specified the work. We apply the specified product to the manufacturer’s details and giving you a record of where it went.

Workplaces and buildings in Bieldside

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; we do not certify buildings or carry out fire risk assessments.

If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Cults West Parish Church, older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking. If you let a flat or house near Aberdeen station, fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

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:

  • The number and length of the joints
  • Any working-time requirements on site
  • The product the joint needs
  • Mould in or behind the old joints

There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote.

What to tell us for a quote

You don’t need to know the technical terms. Just tell us:

  • Photos by email, if that is easy
  • How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
  • Any access issues, like height or stairs
  • Where the property is

Asking for a quote is easy: tell us what needs doing and where and its rough size. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we’ll come back to you with a quote.

Different surfaces, different methods

Plasterboard walls

Many fire-resisting walls in flats, offices and conversions are plasterboard. The sealant has to be one tested in plasterboard for the gap we are sealing.

Flats and HMOs

Working in occupied flats needs some planning. Access to flats and common areas is agreed in advance to keep disruption down.

How it works

You don’t need to clear the whole room or building before we come, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access in most cases. Parking in city streets around Bieldside can be tight or controlled, so it helps to know about permits or nearby bays. If you are in a flat, let us know how we get in at the street door.

  1. First we work through your list or survey, measuring each gap and checking what it’s formed in.
  2. We remove any old or unsuitable filler and clean the gap.
  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. Finally, we list where we worked and what we used, for your records.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear items away from the joints we are working on
  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
  • Mention any parking rules near the property

Ask for a quote

What sealant work cannot fix

New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant won’t put right:

  • A wall that is not a fire-resisting element to begin with
  • Certifying a building or signing off its fire safety
  • Fire risk assessments, which need a qualified assessor

Not sure which it is? You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will tell you honestly before booking.
