Aftercare tips
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Store the list of sealed gaps with your building paperwork
- Take pictures of fire stopping before ceilings or boxing go back
- Include hidden areas like risers in routine checks
- Ask which product was used before you paint
File the record of locations and products with your fire safety paperwork. It saves time at the next inspection or assessment.
An open gap isn’t only a fire issue: they also let noise, draughts and sometimes pests through. Sealing them early helps on every front.
Fire rated sealant in Camelon, done properly
Fire-rated sealant closes the gaps around pipes, cables and frames where they pass through a fire-resisting wall or floor. Each gap is sealed to the product maker’s tested detail for its size and substrate. Common call-outs are for new service routes left unsealed after building work and sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list, on linear gaps, plasterboard & masonry and service penetrations.
In a smaller place like Camelon, commercial jobs are more likely to be a hotel, guest house, school, surgery or community hall than an office block. All of them have washrooms, kitchens and fire-rated joints that need looking after.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, whatever its size.

Why act early in Camelon
A quick fill with any sealant to hand is not fire stopping. Fire-rated products are tested in set gap sizes, depths and substrates, which is why we match the product and the method to each gap. In an older home around Camelon, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.
Why us?
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
- Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme
- Full insurance on every job

Fire rated sealant in Camelon: local notes
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 don’t certify buildings or carry out fire risk assessments.
For landlords with property near Camelon station, new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant. If you look after a building such as Falkirk High School, service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St John's Parish Church, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

Where is Mr Mastic based?
We work from Crawley. We cover Camelon and the rest of Falkirk, along with the rest of our area.
Can you tell me how many minutes the seal will last?
That is not something we state or certify. Your specification sets the requirement, and we apply a product tested for it, recording the locations and products.
How long does the job take?
It depends on the size of the job, but as a guide it takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. We will give you a better idea when we quote.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes. Just list everything you need and you’ll get one quote.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We are fully insured.
Can ordinary silicone be used in a fire-stopping gap?
No. A gap that needs fire stopping needs a tested fire-rated product fitted to the maker’s details.
How the job changes by surface
Linear gaps
A linear joint may need to allow for movement as well as fire. We choose a product and depth that suit the gap and the movement from the manufacturer’s details.
Flats and HMOs
In flats and HMOs, the walls and floors between homes and common areas need sealing where services pass through. We seal the gaps your assessor has identified room by room.
What we do, step by step
Our applicators work methodically: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are, and the area is left clean. Outdoor work around Camelon depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- Before starting, we go through the specification or action list with you.
- Each gap is measured and its substrate and service noted.
- Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out and the gap cleaned.
- We fit backing where needed and apply the fire-rated sealant to depth.
- Every location is recorded with the product used.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the work
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
Getting a quote

What we cannot put right
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we will tell you before work begins. It won’t solve:
- Fire risk assessments, which need a qualified assessor
- Sign-off of the building, which sits with building control or your assessor
- Openings too large for sealant, which need batts, boards or another system
If in doubt, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will say what we think.
