Can you match the sealant colour?
We help you choose a colour that suits, from white and clear to greys and other shades. The choice depends on the product the joint needs.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often happy for the work to be arranged.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.

For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Fire rated sealant in Cruden Bay
Until it’s heated, intumescent sealant behaves like an ordinary sealant; then it swells to help close the gap. The right product depends on the gap size, the substrate and what passes through, so we follow the tested detail for each one. We work on door frames, plasterboard & masonry and flats & HMOs, and people most often call us about ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed and unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall.
For a place like Cruden Bay, the journey and timings are planned in advance, so the job can fit around guests, residents or opening hours where possible.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

What fire rated sealant looks like in Cruden Bay
For seaside hotels, guest houses and holiday lets around Cruden Bay, heavy use in the busy months is hard on washroom and kitchen sealant, and any building work there should leave fire-rated joints made good. Scotland has its own building regulations, the Building (Scotland) Regulations, with technical handbooks. We install fire-rated sealant to the product’s tested details; we do not certify buildings or carry out fire risk assessments.
In and around Cruden Bay, as anywhere, good fire rated sealant starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

What the job involves on each surface
Linear gaps
Linear gaps run along the head of walls, at floor edges and between panels. They’re sealed with a fire-rated sealant over backing where the detail calls for it.
Service penetrations
Service penetrations are where new gaps often appear. We clean out what’s there and reseal to the right depth.
How the visit works
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are, and the area is left clean. In smaller Scottish places, parking is normally less of an issue than access and distance. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints.
- We start with the survey or action list, checking the size and surfaces of every gap.
- Old or unsuitable sealant is cut out and the gap cleaned.
- Where the tested detail needs backing or fill, we fit it.
- Fire-rated or intumescent sealant is applied to the right depth and tooled.
- We record the locations and products used for your records.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Mention any parking rules near the property

Common problems we fix in Cruden Bay
Door frames are a common weak spot. The gap between the frame and the wall is hidden behind the architrave, so it can be left open when a door is replaced.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Linear gaps at the head of walls
- Old fire sealant that has split or come away
- Joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey
- Gaps left after a refit or conversion
For jobs in and around Cruden Bay, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.

Aftercare tips
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Keep photos of seals that will be hidden
- Store the list of sealed gaps with your building paperwork
- Flag any open gap you spot round a pipe or cable
- Check whether a sealant can be painted before decorating over it
Let contractors know where fire stopping has been done, and make sure anything they disturb is resealed with a suitable product. A lot of damaged fire stopping comes from later work.
It’s easiest to seal gaps while they’re few and easy to reach. Over time, more work adds more holes and the job gets bigger.
Leave it or put it right?
Doing it once, properly, beats doing it twice. Work that doesn’t follow the tested detail may have to come out again when the building is next checked. Around Cruden Bay, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster.
