Aftercare tips

Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:

  • Keep the record of products and locations with your fire safety documents
  • Include fire stopping when you schedule refits
  • Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
  • Keep photos of seals that will be hidden

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.

Leave a fire-stopping gap open and smoke can move through the building much more easily. Sealing it early is a simple step to take.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:

  • Fire doors that need new seals, closers or hardware
  • Large holes that need a different fire-stopping system
  • Sign-off of the building, which sits with building control or your assessor

Not sure which it is? You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we seal

  • Service penetrations
  • Pipe & cable gaps
  • Linear gaps
  • Door frames
  • Plasterboard & masonry
  • Flats & HMOs

Leave it or put it right?

Squirting in whichever sealant is nearest does not make a fire seal. Fire-rated products are tested in set gap sizes, depths and substrates, so both the product and the method matter. Wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint on the outside of a city building, and in a tall building in Cessnock, damp can travel a long way before it shows.

We do not show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll talk you through it.

What you get with us

  • A 12-month guarantee on all work
  • Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet
  • Arbo and Everbuild products
  • We leave the area clean and tidy

DIY sealant or a professional job?

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.

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

Common problems we fix in Cessnock

A lot of fire stopping is out of sight: above ceilings, inside risers and behind panels. Out of view, damage sits unnoticed until someone inspects.

The problems people generally mention when they call include:

  • Ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed
  • Cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant
  • Door frames with gaps between frame and wall
  • Sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list

If you look after a building such as Lorne Street Primary School, gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices.

Questions from Cessnock

I let a flat near Exhibition Centre station. Can you help?

Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as householders. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details for a clear quote.

Where are you based?

Our base is Crawley, with over 20 years’ experience. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.

Do I need to be at home?

We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that generally means someone at home.

What do you put in the joint?

Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, chosen to suit the joint. We will tell you what we are using and why.

What fire rating will the seal have?

That is not something we state or certify. Your specification sets the requirement, and we apply a product tested for it.

Is it OK to seal over old sealant?

No. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old sealant, and it traps any mould or water underneath. We remove it all first.

Landlord and commercial work in Cessnock

A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report. Several properties can be quoted together.

What we do, step by step

Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we do not rush it. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. In a Scottish city, a lot of jobs are in tenement flats, up a common stair from a shared close. In Cessnock, it helps to know the floor, the door entry arrangements and the nearest parking.

  1. Access to each area is agreed so the work can run in order.
  2. Old, damaged or unsuitable sealant is removed.
  3. Gaps are cleaned of dust and loose material.
  4. We apply and tool the sealant to the product’s tested detail.
  5. We record what was done and flag anything that needs a different system.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking rules near the property
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Clear the area around the work
