- Which sealant suits the joint
- The size of the job
Doing several joints on one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We’ll send you a clear quote for the lot.

Aftercare tips
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Allow for resealing whenever new services are run
- Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks
- Get damaged fire seals looked at promptly
- Don’t fill fire-stopping gaps with ordinary foam or silicone
Let contractors know where fire stopping has been done, and make sure anything they disturb is resealed with a suitable product. A lot of damaged fire stopping comes from later work.
It’s easiest to seal gaps while they’re few and easy to reach. Leave them and each new job adds another hole and the list grows.
What sealant work can’t fix
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Fire doors that need new seals, closers or hardware
- Deciding what fire stopping a building needs
- Big openings where sealant alone isn’t the tested solution
If in doubt, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will say what we think.

How the visit works
Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building and we leave things clean and tidy. For a place like Carnbo, longer drives are planned in advance. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.
- First we work through your list or survey, measuring each gap and checking what it’s formed in.
- We remove any old or unsuitable filler and clean the gap.
- Backing or fill is fitted where the product’s tested detail calls for it.
- Fire-rated or intumescent sealant is applied to the right depth and tooled.
- We record the locations and products used for your records.
Preparing for the visit
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Tell us about any water getting in

Common problems we fix in Carnbo
If the sealant is too shallow, has the wrong backing or sits on a dusty surface, it isn’t installed as tested. We see plenty of fire stopping that was hurried, especially where it was squeezed in at the end of a project.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall
- Gaps left after a refit or conversion
- Unsealed gaps around fire door frames
- Fire stopping disturbed by later work
Around Carnbo, as everywhere, fire rated sealant is only as good as the preparation behind it.

DIY versus a professional finish
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
FAQs for Carnbo
Is Carnbo within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do Scottish building rules affect fire-rated sealant work in Carnbo?
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 don’t certify buildings or do fire risk assessments; your assessor or building control can tell you what’s required.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
