What affects the quote in Cullen

Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • How easy the joints are to reach
  • Mould in or behind the old joints
  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
  • Any working-time requirements on site

Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Asking for a quote

To help us quote quickly, let us know:

  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • Photos by email, if that’s easy
  • How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
  • Where the property is

We do not publish a price list, because every job is different. Instead, we give you a clear price for your job. To arrange one, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

How we handle fire rated sealant in Cullen

A fire seal relies on being installed the way it was tested: correct depth, correct backing and a product suited to the surfaces. That’s the part we focus on, one gap at a time. If you have open joints along the top of partitions and fire stopping disturbed by later work, we can help, whatever the surface.

For a place like Cullen, the journey and timings are planned in advance, so it can be fitted around bookings or opening times where possible.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Surface by surface

Linear gaps

Long, narrow gaps appear where walls meet slabs and ceilings. We seal them to the tested detail, with backing where it’s needed.

Masonry and concrete

Preparation counts on brick, block and concrete. We brush and vacuum the gap and use backing where the detail needs it.

Your questions about fire rated sealant in Cullen

Do you cover Cullen for fire rated sealant?

Yes, Cullen is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing.

Do Scottish building rules affect fire-rated sealant work in Cullen?

Building work in Scotland comes under the Building (Scotland) Regulations and their 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 do fire risk assessments; your assessor or building control can tell you what’s required.

Can I do it myself?

You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.

Do you certify the fire stopping?

That isn’t something we state or certify. The requirement comes from your assessor, designer or building control, and we apply a product tested for it.

Can you match the sealant colour?

We help you choose a colour that suits, from white and clear to greys and other shades. The product needed can limit the range.

Is it messy?

No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.

Is it OK to seal over old sealant?

No. The old sealant always comes out first, so the new joint bonds to clean surfaces.

Do you seal gaps around fire door frames?

Yes. We seal the gap between the frame and the wall with a suitable fire-rated product. The door leaf and its hardware need a door specialist.

What we are called out for in Cullen

Over time, buildings change layout and use. Conversions to flats and HMOs, and office refits, create new walls and new routes for services, with gaps to match.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Fire stopping disturbed by later work
  • Gaps filled with a product that is not fire-rated
  • Gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls
  • Holes left by a change of layout

In and around Cullen, as anywhere, good fire rated sealant starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

What your quote should include

  • Is the old sealant removed completely?
  • Whether you can choose the colour
  • Whether the sealant suits the joint
  • What preparation is included

How to choose a mastic man

What we do, step by step

When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. 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.

  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. Any non-fire-rated filler is removed.
  4. The specified fire-rated sealant goes in over any backing its detail requires.
  5. Every location is recorded with the product used for your files.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if parking is tricky
  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
  • Clear items away from the joints we are working on

Advice

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.

We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.

Aftercare tips

Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:

  • Look in service cupboards and ceiling voids from time to time
  • Photograph sealed gaps before they’re covered up
  • Flag any open gap you spot round a pipe or cable
  • Plan fire stopping into any work that goes through walls or floors

Don’t drill through or remove a fire seal without putting it back properly. If you need new services through a sealed wall, plan the fire stopping as part of the job.

When you plan work that goes through walls or ceilings, plan the fire stopping too. Doing it at the time avoids leaving gaps behind.

Why it’s worth doing now in Cullen

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. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.

What it costs depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before any work starts.

Why book with us

  • An ARBOMaster approved applicator
  • Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
  • Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild
  • Full insurance on every job
