Fire rated sealant in Corry
Ordinary silicone or decorators’ caulk in a fire-stopping gap isn’t a fire-rated seal. We cut out the wrong material and reseal with a fire-rated product tested for that kind of gap. Common call-outs are for gaps filled with a product that isn’t fire-rated and holes left by a change of layout, on service penetrations, pipe & cable gaps and plasterboard & masonry.
For a place like Corry, the journey and timings are planned in advance, so it can be fitted around bookings or opening times where possible.
All our work is covered by a 12-month guarantee.

How the job changes by surface
Door frames
Our work is the joint between frame and wall. Doors, seals and closers are for a door specialist and we will mention anything we notice.
Linear gaps
Linear gaps run along the head of walls, at floor edges and between panels. They’re sealed with a fire-rated sealant over backing where the detail calls for it.
When it is not the sealant
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we will tell you before any work starts. It won’t solve:
- Deciding what fire stopping a building needs
- A wall that is not a fire-resisting element to begin with
- Sign-off of the building, which sits with building control or your assessor
If in doubt, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Plasterboard & masonry

What fire rated sealant looks like in Corry
If you run a hotel, guest house or holiday let in a coastal place like Corry, busy months put washrooms and kitchens under pressure, so it’s worth checking the sealant before the busiest weeks. In Scotland, building work comes under the Building (Scotland) Regulations and their technical handbooks. We install fire-rated sealant to the product’s tested details; we do not certify buildings or carry out fire risk assessments.
Around Corry, as everywhere, fire rated sealant is only as good as the preparation behind it.

How the visit works
When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. In smaller Scottish places, parking is normally less of an issue than access and distance. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work.
- We start with the survey or action list, checking the size and surfaces of every gap.
- Anything that is not fit for the job comes out, and the gap is cleaned.
- Backing or fill is fitted where the product’s tested detail calls for it.
- Fire-rated or intumescent sealant is applied to the right depth and tooled.
- We record the locations and products used for your records.
How to prepare
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

Advice
Your questions about fire rated sealant in Corry
Do Scottish building rules affect fire-rated sealant work in Corry?
Scotland has its own building regulations, the Building (Scotland) Regulations, with their own technical handbooks. Fire-rated sealant has to go in to the product’s tested details, and we follow them. We do not certify buildings or carry out fire risk assessments, so your fire risk assessor or building control will advise on what’s needed.
Can you do fire rated sealant in Corry?
Yes, Corry is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing.
Can tenants book the work?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything isn’t right with the work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.
What should I tell you?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, because it fails. The old sealant always comes out first, so the new sealant bonds properly.
Does someone need to be in?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. Indoors, that usually means someone at home.
Can you tell me how many minutes the seal will last?
That is not something we state or certify. Your specification sets the requirement, and we fit a product whose tested details meet it.
Why it’s worth doing now in Corry
Fire-rated sealants are less forgiving than ordinary ones. How it’s installed changes how it performs, and we work to the product details every time. In an older home around Corry, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before work begins.

What else we do in Corry
Do you need fire rated sealant in Corry?
Gaps around door frames are easily missed. The gap between the frame and the wall is hidden behind the architrave, so it can be left open when a door is replaced.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Gaps left after a refit or conversion
- Linear gaps at the head of walls
- Gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls
- Unsealed gaps around fire door frames
Community buildings like Broadford Parish Church are part of the picture too: gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.
