Honest limits
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’ll tell you before we start. Sealant won’t put right:
- Issuing a fire rating or certificate for a building
- Construction that doesn’t provide fire resistance on its own
- Assessing a building’s fire safety
If in doubt, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will say what we think before booking.
What we seal
- Plasterboard & masonry
- Door frames
- Flats & HMOs
- Service penetrations
- Pipe & cable gaps
- Linear gaps

Common questions in Claddach Kirkibost
Can you do fire rated sealant in Claddach Kirkibost?
Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and Claddach Kirkibost is part of that. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear quote.

Yes, Claddach Kirkibost is covered. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, islands included, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator and we are fully insured too.
Do I have to be there?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, every time. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Will you assess my building’s fire safety?
No. Your fire risk assessor, designer or building control decides that. Our job is applying the sealant to their specification.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
Will you leave a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.
Different surfaces, different methods
Masonry and concrete
For masonry and concrete, we use a product tested in that substrate. We clean out dust and debris before sealing.
Plasterboard walls
We check that the board around the gap is sound. Crumbling edges are cleaned back before the sealant goes in.

Landlords and agents in Claddach Kirkibost can book us as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order.
Leave it or put it right?
Paying for fire stopping that has to be redone is a false economy. If the details weren’t followed, the seal may need redoing once someone inspects it. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.
Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are unsure, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.
