DIY sealant or a professional job?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Certifying a building or signing off its fire safety
- Large holes that need a different fire-stopping system
- Construction that does not provide fire resistance on its own
If you are not sure, just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What’s near Blairninich

How it works
We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building, and the area is left clean. Outside jobs in Blairninich need a dry day, because sealant will not bond to a wet joint, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- Before starting, we go through the specification or action list with you.
- 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 and the faces cleaned.
- We fit backing where needed and apply the fire-rated sealant to depth.
- Every location is recorded with the product used.
Before we arrive
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Mention any parking rules near the property

Other services in Blairninich
Surface by surface
Flats and HMOs
Working in occupied flats needs some planning. Access to flats and common areas is agreed in advance to keep disruption down.
Plasterboard walls
Service holes in plasterboard are often rough and oversized. Where a hole is bigger than the sealant’s tested range, it needs another approach and we’ll flag it.
Common problems we fix in Blairninich
If the sealant is too shallow, has the wrong backing or sits on a dusty surface, it is not installed as tested. We see plenty of fire stopping that was hurried, especially where it was squeezed in at the end of a project.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list
- Open joints along the top of partitions
- Damaged fire sealant left by other trades
- Gaps left after a refit or conversion
In and around Blairninich, as anywhere, good fire rated sealant starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Questions from Blairninich
I let a flat near Dingwall station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before work begins.
Do you work in hotels near Blairninich?
Yes, we work for hotels as well as homes and businesses. Rooms can be done a few at a time, so the building stays open.
Do you provide details of the products used?
Yes. Locations and products are written up when we finish. If you need pictures or a set layout, ask when you get a quote.
Can ordinary silicone be used in a fire-stopping gap?
No. It looks sealed but will not perform as fire stopping. A tested fire-rated product is needed and we can apply it for you.
Is it messy?
Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints.
Do you seal gaps around fire door frames?
Yes, if the gap is within the product’s tested range. Our work is the gap around the frame.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little, and any smell fades as they cure.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we are part of it.
Why deal with it now?
Doing it once, properly, beats doing it twice. Work that does not follow the tested detail may have to come out again when the building is next checked. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.
