About our fire rated sealant in Blairingone
We often work from an action list drawn up by a fire risk assessor on buildings across Blairingone. Send us the list or the survey and we’ll quote for the fire-rated sealant work on it. We are often asked to deal with gaps left after a refit or conversion and ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed, across door frames, linear gaps and pipe & cable gaps.
In a smaller place like Blairingone, commercial jobs are more likely to be a hotel, guest house, school, surgery or community hall than an office block. Each needs sound sealant in its washrooms and kitchens, and fire-rated joints kept in good order.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

Common problems we fix in Blairingone
Sealant applied too thin, without the backing its detail needs, or onto dust will not perform as it was tested. Rushed fire stopping is common.
The most common problems we see are:
- Linear gaps at the head of walls
- Gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment
- New service routes left unsealed after building work
- Door frames with gaps between frame and wall
Community buildings like Blairingone Parish Church are part of the picture too: service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.

Why it’s worth doing now in Blairingone
Waiting for the next refit can leave a gap open for years. On its own, sealing it now is a small job. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk for an honest opinion and a quote.

FAQs for Blairingone
How do Scotland’s building regulations apply to fire-rated sealant in Blairingone?
Building work in Scotland comes under the Building (Scotland) Regulations and their technical handbooks. Whatever the rules, fire-rated sealant has to be installed to the manufacturer’s tested details, and that is how we fit it. We do not certify buildings or carry out fire risk assessments, so your fire risk assessor or building control will advise on what’s needed.
Will you come out to Blairingone?
Yes. Blairingone is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across all of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Do the sealants smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, which fades as it sets. Opening a window helps.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are glad to have it sorted.
What’s the difference between intumescent and fire-rated sealant?
Intumescent means it swells when heated. Intumescent sealants are one kind of fire-rated sealant; the right one depends on the gap and what passes through it.
Do you provide details of the products used?
Yes. When the job is done, we give you the locations and products. If you need photos or a set layout, ask when you get a quote.
Can you match the sealant colour?
We’ll suggest a colour to suit the surroundings. The choice depends on the product the joint needs.
How long will you be here?
A typical job takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. We will confirm how long when we quote.
Can I do it myself?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
What the job involves on each surface
Plasterboard walls
We check that the board around the gap is sound. Crumbling edges are cleaned back before the sealant goes in.
Linear gaps
Some linear gaps have to cope with movement as well as fire. We choose a product and depth that suit the gap and the movement, following the tested detail.
How the visit works
A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and tidy away. Most jobs take a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. Around Blairingone, distance and access matter more than parking. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work, and the visit is planned around that.
- First we work through your list or survey, measuring each gap and checking what it’s formed in.
- Old or unsuitable sealant is cut out and the gap cleaned.
- Where the tested detail needs backing or fill, we fit it.
- The sealant goes in to the depth its detail sets, then it’s tooled off.
- Finally, we list where we worked and what we used, for your records.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

When something else is needed
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant will not put right:
- Construction that doesn’t provide fire resistance on its own
- Fire doors that need new seals, closers or hardware
- Sign-off of the building, which sits with building control or your assessor
If you are not sure, just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you a straight answer.
