Fire rated sealant in Crook of Devon

How it works

When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. Most jobs take from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. In smaller Scottish places, parking is usually less of an issue than access and distance. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints, and the visit is planned around that.

  1. Before starting, we go through the specification or action list with you.
  2. Each gap is measured and its substrate and service noted.
  3. Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out and the gap cleaned.
  4. We fit backing where needed and apply the fire-rated sealant to depth.
  5. We hand over a list of locations and products.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
  • Keep children and pets away from the work area

About our fire rated sealant in Crook of Devon

Deciding which gaps need fire stopping isn’t our role; your assessor, designer or building control sets that out. What we do is apply the right product to that specification, properly and neatly. If you’re dealing with unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall and standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap, we can help, on door frames, pipe & cable gaps and linear gaps alike.

For holiday lets, guest houses and community buildings in or near Crook of Devon, the washrooms and kitchens need the same care as any city building, and fire-rated joints should be kept in good order.

Big or small, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee.

Why deal with it now?

Doing it once, properly, beats doing it twice. If the details weren’t followed, the seal may need redoing when the building is next checked. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.

Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.

Should I try it myself first?

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

FAQs for Crook of Devon

Are the rules for fire-rated sealant different in Scotland?

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.

Will you come out to Crook of Devon?

Yes, Crook of Devon is covered. We work across all of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

Where are you based?

Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. We cover Crook of Devon and the rest of Perth and Kinross.

Can you fill the gap behind a fire door frame?

Yes. Gaps behind architraves are a common job for us. The door and its fittings are a separate job for a door specialist.

Is standard sealant good enough for a fire gap?

No. It might close the gap, but it isn’t a fire-rated seal. A tested fire-rated product is needed, or ask us to do it.

Do I have to be there?

It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, and for outside work we’ll agree access with you when we book.

Can new sealant go over the old?

No. We remove every bit of old sealant first, so the new joint bonds to clean surfaces.

What we are called out for in Crook of Devon

In some buildings the gap was filled with the wrong thing in the first place: ordinary expanding foam, standard silicone or decorators’ caulk in a place that needed a tested fire seal. It may look fine, but it isn’t a fire-rated seal.

Common reasons people contact us include:

  • Open joints along the top of partitions
  • Unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall
  • New service routes left unsealed after building work
  • Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers

Community buildings like St Serf's Church are part of the picture too: service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.

What to look for in a quote

  • What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
  • How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
  • What product goes in the joint
  • Whether they seal over old material or remove it

What we can’t put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:

  • Openings too large for sealant, which need batts, boards or another system
  • A wall that is not a fire-resisting element to begin with
  • Doors that are not fire doors in the first place

Not sure which it is? You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will tell you honestly.

What we seal

  • Service penetrations
  • Plasterboard & masonry
  • Door frames
  • Flats & HMOs
  • Pipe & cable gaps
  • Linear gaps

What affects the cost of fire rated sealant

Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:

  • When we can work, for business premises
  • Which sealant suits the joint
  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
  • The number of rooms or windows

A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk for an honest opinion and a quote.

When you contact us, it’s useful to know:

  • The rough size of the job
