Fire rated sealant in Carsie
A fire seal relies on being installed the way it was tested: the right depth, the right backing and the right product for the substrate. That’s the part we focus on, gap by gap. If you have gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs and sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Commercial work around smaller Scottish places tends to mean hotels, guest houses, schools and halls rather than offices. Each needs sound sealant in its washrooms and kitchens, and fire-rated joints kept in good order.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

How we quote for fire rated sealant
We do not publish a price list, because no two jobs are the same. What we look at:
- Any working-time requirements on site
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- How easy the joints are to reach
- Mould in or behind the old joints
We don’t show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a quick quote, please email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will talk you through it.
What to tell us for a quote
You don’t need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:
- The type of property
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- A few photos by email, if you can
- The address or postcode of the job
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints.

What else we do in Carsie
Can I do it myself?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
How the visit works
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we are treating, so you can carry on as normal. The job usually takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building, and we explain the cure time before we leave. Outdoor work around Carsie depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Work indoors isn’t affected.
- We begin by agreeing the list of gaps from your assessor’s or designer’s requirements.
- Each gap is measured and its substrate and service noted.
- Any non-fire-rated filler is removed and the faces cleaned.
- We fit backing where needed and apply the fire-rated sealant to depth.
- We hand over a list of locations and products.
How to prepare
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

How to look after the new joints
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Flag any open gap you spot round a pipe or cable
- Photograph sealed gaps before they’re covered up
- Ask every contractor to reseal any fire stopping they disturb
- Allow for resealing whenever new services are run
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.
An open gap is not only a fire issue: they also let noise, draughts and sometimes pests through. Sealing them early helps on every front.
Different surfaces, different methods
Flats and HMOs
Flats and HMOs rely on fire separation between homes and the common parts. We seal the gaps your assessor has identified, flat by flat if needed.
Door frames
We deal with the gap around the frame, not the door. The door leaf, its seals and closer need a door specialist.
Questions from Carsie
Is Carsie in your area for fire rated sealant?
Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Carsie is part of that. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing.
Do you cover smaller places like Carsie?
Yes. Carsie is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
What sealant do you use?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status.
Can you tell me how many minutes the seal will last?
We do not certify fire stopping or quote ratings. We apply the specified product to the manufacturer’s details and giving you a record of where it went.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all, and any smell fades as they cure.
Do I need to be at home?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Fire rated sealant around Carsie
In Scotland, building work comes under the Building (Scotland) Regulations and their technical handbooks. Fire-rated sealant is installed to the manufacturer’s tested details; we do not certify buildings or carry out fire risk assessments.
Around Carsie, as everywhere, fire rated sealant is only as good as the preparation behind it. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Blairgowrie High School, service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.

What we can’t put right
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Large holes that need a different fire-stopping system
- Sign-off of the building, which sits with building control or your assessor
- A wall that is not a fire-resisting element to begin with
Not sure which it is? You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll tell you honestly.
