Surface by surface
Masonry and concrete
Masonry is dusty and porous, so preparation matters. The gap is cleaned and backed where required before applying the sealant.
Service penetrations
Different services need different details: metal pipes, cables and plastic pipes aren’t treated the same. We follow the manufacturer’s tested detail for each and we flag any that need another system.
Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Crown
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 apply it to the depth its tested detail calls for. If you’re dealing with new service routes left unsealed after building work and sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
For holiday lets, guest houses and community buildings in or near Crown, washroom and kitchen sealant and any fire-rated joints need the same attention as anywhere.
Every job comes with a 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Highland.

What we do, step by step
On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. Around Crown, distance and access matter more than parking. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints.
- We go through the gaps on your list or survey and check each one’s size and substrate.
- We remove any old or unsuitable filler and clean the gap.
- 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.
- Locations and products are noted so you have them on file.
Preparing for the visit
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Advice
FAQs for Crown
Is Crown within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you work in hotels near Crown?
Yes, we work for hotels as well as homes and businesses. Rooms can be done a few at a time, so the building stays open.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Just list everything you need and you will get one quote.
Can I do it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
How long will you be here?
Most jobs take from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access, including the preparation. We will confirm how long when we quote.
Will you assess my building’s fire safety?
No. We work from the specification you give us.
Can I use normal mastic around a pipe through a fire wall?
No. Ordinary silicone, caulk or foam isn’t tested as fire stopping. We cut it out and reseal with a fire-rated product.
How do I get a quote for fire rated sealant in Crown?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Call for a quick quote.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Crown
For anyone letting property in or around Crown, several properties can be quoted together. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs, and pictures by email help.
We also work for property managers and facilities teams. We can quote a run of properties together, and we’re fully insured for the work.
Why it’s worth doing now in Crown
Fire-rated sealants need more care than everyday sealant. Depth, backing and surface preparation all affect how a seal performs, so we follow the maker’s details on every gap. In a place like Crown, small leaks are easy to put off, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, along with when we can work on site. Ask us for a quote and we will explain what it covers.
Why Crown clients choose us
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas

Aftercare tips
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep the record of products and locations with your fire safety documents
- Ask every contractor to reseal any fire stopping they disturb
- Take pictures of fire stopping before ceilings or boxing go back
- Include fire stopping when you schedule refits
Any fire seal that is cut or drilled needs resealing to its tested detail. New services through a sealed wall should include fire stopping in the plan.
Leave a fire-stopping gap open and smoke can move through the building much more easily. Closing it is normally a straightforward job.
What fire rated sealant looks like in Crown
For seaside hotels, guest houses and holiday lets around Crown, 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. Fire-rated sealant is installed to the manufacturer’s tested details; we don’t certify buildings or carry out fire risk assessments.
If you look after a building such as Millburn Academy, service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.

Common problems we fix in Crown
Door frames are a common weak spot. The architrave hides the gap between frame and wall, so it’s easy to leave unsealed when doors are changed.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Holes left by a change of layout
- Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
- Gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs
- Gaps filled with a product that is not fire-rated
Letting a property close to Inverness station? Then any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.
