Keeping the joints in good condition
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t fill fire-stopping gaps with ordinary foam or silicone
- Ask which product was used before you paint
- Store the list of sealed gaps with your building paperwork
- Flag any open gap you spot round a pipe or cable
Any fire seal that is cut or drilled needs resealing to its tested detail. New services through a sealed wall should include fire stopping in the plan.
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 job gets bigger.
For landlords and businesses
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.

What we’re called out for in Coatbridge
A lot of fire stopping is out of sight: above ceilings, inside risers and behind panels. Because nobody sees it, gaps go unnoticed until an assessor or surveyor looks.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed
- Gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls
- Fire seals that have cracked with movement
- Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
Letting a property close to Whifflet station? Then fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through.

Your questions about fire rated sealant in Coatbridge
Can you do fire rated sealant in Coatbridge?
Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Coatbridge is part of that. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.
Do you work for landlords with property near Whifflet station?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before we start.
Is it worth trying it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
Can you give us a record of the work?
Yes. We record the locations we have sealed and the products used for your files.
Is it messy?
No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
What do you put in the joint?
It depends on the joint: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
Do you carry out fire risk assessments?
No. That’s for a fire risk assessor, designer or building control. We apply fire-rated sealant to the requirements they set.
Should I try it myself first?
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
What happens if it’s left?
A quick fill with any sealant to hand isn’t fire stopping. Fire-rated products are tested in set gap sizes, depths and substrates, which is why we match the product and the method to each gap. In Coatbridge, wind and rain soon get through failed outside joints. Indoors, failed sealant lets water into floors and ceilings.
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we ask about the job first and give you a clear price before we start.

Commercial buildings in Coatbridge
Scotland has its own building regulations, the Building (Scotland) Regulations, with technical handbooks. Fire-rated sealant is installed to the manufacturer’s tested details; we don’t certify buildings or carry out fire risk assessments.
If you look after a building such as St. Ambrose High School, fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in. For buildings such as St Mary's Rc Church, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.
