Fire rated sealant in Crookedholm, done properly
Door frame gaps, linear joints and holes around services all have their own details. We check the size and the substrate before choosing the product, then the sealant goes in to the depth the product’s details set. If you have old fire sealant that has split or come away and door frames with gaps between frame and wall, we can put it right.
For holiday lets, guest houses and community buildings in or near Crookedholm, washroom and kitchen sealant and any fire-rated joints need the same attention as anywhere.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once the job is done.

For landlords and businesses
If you manage several properties in or around Crookedholm, jobs at different addresses can be quoted together. Send us the addresses and the work at each, and pictures by email help.
We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for.
What happens if it’s left?
For some gaps, sealant isn’t the right answer and another system is needed. Large holes, cable bundles and plastic pipes can call for batts, collars or wraps. We’ll say so if a gap needs something other than sealant. 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.
There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a quick quote, please send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will talk you through it.

When something else is needed
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we will tell you before we start. Sealant will not put right:
- Problems with the door itself rather than the gap around the frame
- Assessing a building’s fire safety
- Sign-off of the building, which sits with building control or your assessor
If in doubt, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we seal
- Flats & HMOs
- Service penetrations
- Plasterboard & masonry
- Door frames
- Pipe & cable gaps
- Linear gaps
DIY versus a professional finish
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
How the visit works
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The work itself takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. Around Crookedholm, distance and access matter more than parking. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints, and the visit is planned around that.
- Before starting, we go through the specification or action list with you.
- Each gap is measured and its substrate and service noted.
- Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out and the gap cleaned.
- We fit backing where needed and apply the fire-rated sealant to depth.
- We hand over a list of locations and products.
Before we arrive
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Related advice
Common problems we fix in Crookedholm
Gaps also open up as buildings move: cracked or debonded sealant leaves an open route through the wall. Damage from cleaning, knocks and maintenance adds to it.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Fire stopping disturbed by later work
- Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
- Open holes round services passing through fire walls
- Unsealed gaps around fire door frames
For buildings such as Hurlford Parish Church, older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking.
What to look for in a quote
- When the joint can take water or movement
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- Who turns up on the day
- What insurance they hold
What affects the cost of fire rated sealant
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We look at:
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- The number and length of the joints
- Working hours on commercial sites
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
Doing several joints on one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We’ll give you a clear quote for the lot.
Asking for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. Just tell us:
- The type of property
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- The rough size of the job
Every job is quoted individually, so the first step is telling us about yours. Simply email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and describe the job and send pictures if you have them.
Crookedholm: your questions answered
Is Crookedholm within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. We work across all of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do Scottish building rules affect fire-rated sealant work in Crookedholm?
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 don’t certify buildings or carry out fire risk assessments, so your fire risk assessor or building control will advise on what’s needed.
Do the sealants smell?
It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all, and any smell fades as they cure.
Where are you based?
We work from Crawley. Our applicators cover Crookedholm, along with the rest of our area.
Will you assess my building’s fire safety?
No. Your fire risk assessor, designer or building control decides that. We apply fire-rated sealant to the requirements they set.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are glad to have it sorted.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We’re approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.
Will we have a record of what was sealed?
Yes. We note each location and the product that went in, so you have it on file.
