Fire stopping only performs as intended if it’s done to the detail: correct depth, correct backing and a product suited to the surfaces. That detail is what we take care over, gap by gap. Common call-outs are for new service routes left unsealed after building work and old fire sealant that has split or come away, across door frames, flats & HMOs and linear gaps.
For holiday lets, guest houses and community buildings in or near Coltness, the washrooms and kitchens need the same care as any city building, and fire-rated joints should be kept in good order.
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee.

Coltness questions
How do Scotland’s building regulations apply to fire-rated sealant in Coltness?
Building work in Scotland comes under the Building (Scotland) Regulations and their technical handbooks. Fire-rated sealant has to go in to the product’s tested details, and we follow them. We don’t certify buildings or carry out fire risk assessments, so your fire risk assessor or building control will advise on what’s needed.
I let a flat near Cleland station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Can you match the sealant colour?
Generally, yes. Sealants come in white, clear, grey and other colours for many products, and we agree the colour with you before we start.
Do you provide details of the products used?
Yes. You get a list of where we worked and what we used.
How long does fire rated sealant take?
It depends on the size of the job, but as a guide it takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. We will tell you when we quote.
What does fire rated sealant cost?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. For a quick quote, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing and where.
Can you tell me which gaps need fire stopping?

Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we tidy up before we go.

Why act early in Coltness
Doing it once, properly, beats doing it twice. If the details weren’t followed, the seal may need redoing once someone inspects it. Around Coltness, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll go through it with you.

How to look after the new joints
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep general-purpose foam and caulk away from fire-stopping gaps
- Look in service cupboards and ceiling voids from time to time
- Photograph sealed gaps before they’re covered up
- Check whether a sealant can be painted before decorating over it
Let contractors know where fire stopping has been done, and ask them to reseal anything they cut through. 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. Closing it is normally a straightforward job.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords and letting agents in Coltness can book us as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
How the job changes by surface
Masonry and concrete
For masonry and concrete, we use a product tested in that substrate. The gap is cleaned of dust first so the seal has something sound to bond to.
Door frames
The gap between a door frame and the wall around it needs sealing as well as the door itself. We fill it with a fire-rated product suited to the materials either side.
What we are called out for in Coltness
In some buildings the gap was filled with the wrong thing in the first place: general-purpose foam, everyday silicone or caulk in a place that needed a tested fire seal. It may look fine, but it is not a fire-rated seal.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Linear gaps at the head of walls
- Gaps filled with a product that is not fire-rated
- Cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant
- New service routes left unsealed after building work
If you look after a building such as St. Aidan's Primary School, service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.
