- New service routes left unsealed after building work
- Open holes round services passing through fire walls
- Fire stopping disturbed by later work
Looking after it afterwards
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Ask which product was used before you paint
- Include fire stopping when you schedule refits
- Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
- Don’t fill fire-stopping gaps with ordinary foam or silicone
Avoid covering a sealed gap with anything that is not part of the tested detail. Repairs should use a matching fire-rated product. Ask us if you are not sure which product was used.
It’s easiest to seal gaps while they’re few and easy to reach. Over time, more work adds more holes.
Fire rated sealant in Cleland, done properly
A gap around a door frame, a linear joint at the head of a wall and a hole round a pipe are each sealed differently. We check the size and the substrate before choosing the product, then the sealant goes in to the depth the product’s details set. Common call-outs are for door frames with gaps between frame and wall and seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers, across door frames, flats & HMOs and pipe & cable gaps.
In a smaller place like Cleland, 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.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

When it is not the sealant
In fairness, some problems need a different trade:
- Construction that doesn’t provide fire resistance on its own
- Issuing a fire rating or certificate for a building
- Assessing a building’s fire safety

Why deal with it now?
Items left open on a fire risk assessment tend to come back at the next review. Having them sealed and recorded now means you can show the action was taken. Around Cleland, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster.
Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

Different surfaces, different methods
Linear gaps
Gaps along the top of partitions are easy to miss above a ceiling. We seal them along their full length.
Service penetrations
Wherever a service goes through a fire-resisting wall or floor, there’s a gap around it. The sealant is chosen for what passes through and how wide the gap is.

How do Scotland’s building regulations apply to fire-rated sealant in Cleland?
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.

Some sealants have a smell while they cure, but it fades. Ventilation helps.

Yes. Sealants come in white, clear, grey and other colours for many products, and we will agree it with you first.
When to call us in Cleland
Door frames are a common weak spot. The architrave hides the gap between frame and wall, so it’s easy to leave unsealed when doors are changed.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
- Unsealed gaps around fire door frames
- Gaps left after a refit or conversion
- Open joints along the top of partitions
Managing a site like St. Aidan's Primary School? Then gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices.
