How we handle fire rated sealant in Crosbost
Intumescent sealant looks much like any other sealant until it gets hot; then it swells to help close the gap. Which product suits a gap depends on its width, the materials either side and what runs through it. If you’re dealing with fire stopping disturbed by later work and gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls, we can help.
Work in a place like Crosbost is planned ahead, journey included, so it can be fitted around bookings or opening times where possible.

Advice
How to look after the new joints
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Keep general-purpose foam and caulk away from fire-stopping gaps
- Check whether a sealant can be painted before decorating over it
- Take pictures of fire stopping before ceilings or boxing go back
- Plan fire stopping into any work that goes through walls or floors
Keep the record we give you with the building’s fire safety documents. It saves time at the next inspection or assessment.
Any job that breaks through a wall or ceiling should include resealing. Catching it then saves a separate visit later.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
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.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
Why it’s worth doing now in Crosbost
An unsealed gap lets smoke and fire get round a wall that was built to hold them back. A proper seal lets the wall do its job again, and the work involved is often modest. In an older home around Crosbost, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster.
We do not show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll talk you through it.
