How we handle fire rated sealant in Craigie
Deciding which gaps need fire stopping isn’t our role; your assessor, designer or building control sets that out. Our part is applying the specified sealant carefully, to the right depth and with the right backing. We work on linear gaps, service penetrations and pipe & cable gaps, and common reasons people get in touch are old fire sealant that has split or come away and standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap.
Commercial work around smaller Scottish places tends to mean hotels, guest houses, schools and halls rather than offices. Each needs sound sealant in its washrooms and kitchens, and fire-rated joints kept in good order.
Our work is backed for twelve months.

Craigie questions
Will you come out to Craigie?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across all of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Do you work for landlords with property near Kilmarnock station?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear quote.
Can you give us a record of the work?
Yes. We note each location and the product that went in.
Do you seal gaps around fire door frames?
Yes. Gaps behind architraves are a common job for us. The door and its fittings are a separate job for a door specialist.
How do I get a quote for fire rated sealant in Craigie?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. To get one, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing and where.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. We remove every bit of old sealant first, so the new sealant bonds properly.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, and it’s something we never do.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes: twelve months. If anything isn’t right with the work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.
Common problems we fix in Craigie
If the sealant is too shallow, has the wrong backing or sits on a dusty surface, it isn’t installed as tested. Rushed fire stopping is common particularly when it was the last job before handover.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list
- Cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant
- Gaps left after a refit or conversion
- Open holes round services passing through fire walls
For landlords with property near Kilmarnock station, fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
Quotes for fire rated sealant in Craigie
You will get a clear quote before we start. It takes into account:
- Whether the work is at height
- Which sealant suits the joint
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first and send you a clear quote before work begins.
Asking for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- The address or postcode of the job
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
There’s no standard price list. Instead, we give you a clear quote for your job. To arrange one, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Why deal with it now?
Paying for fire stopping that has to be redone is a false economy. If the details weren’t followed, the seal may need redoing when the building is next checked. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.

How it works
Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and clear up. Most jobs take a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. For a place like Craigie, longer drives are planned in advance. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.
- We begin by agreeing the list of gaps from your assessor’s or designer’s requirements.
- Each gap is measured and its substrate and service noted.
- Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out.
- The specified fire-rated sealant goes in over any backing its detail requires.
- We hand over a list of locations and products for your records.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the work
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
Getting a quote
For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or send an email if you’d rather. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we’ll explain what’s involved.
Related advice
Looking after it afterwards
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Store the list of sealed gaps with your building paperwork
- Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks
- Get damaged fire seals looked at promptly
- Keep pictures of seals that will be hidden
Do not add foam, filler or ordinary sealant over a fire seal. Repairs should use a matching fire-rated product. We can tell you which product we used.
Small gaps around services are simple to deal with while there are only a few. Over time, more work adds more holes and the job gets bigger.
Fire rated sealant around Craigie
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 don’t certify buildings or carry out fire risk assessments.
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Craigie Parish Church, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.
