Quotes for fire rated sealant in Dunning
We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. What we look at:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- When we can work, for business premises
- Whether the work is at height
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part, and we will explain the quote if you ask.
What we need to know
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Try to tell us:
- Roughly how big the job is
- How we’d reach the joints
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
Call for a quick quote, or email us if that’s easier. Describe what needs sealing and we will explain what’s involved and send you a clear quote.
About our fire rated sealant in Dunning
We don’t assess buildings or decide what fire stopping is needed; that comes from your fire risk assessor, designer or building control. What we do is apply the right product to that specification, properly and neatly. We work on linear gaps, door frames and service penetrations, and the jobs we see most are gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls and fire seals that have cracked with movement.
Commercial work around smaller Scottish places tends to mean hotels, guest houses, schools and halls rather than offices. All of them have washrooms, kitchens and fire-rated joints that need looking after.
Big or small, you get the same 12-month guarantee in Dunning and across Perth and Kinross.

Aftercare tips
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Flag any open gap you spot round a pipe or cable
- Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks
- Do not paint over fire sealant until it has cured
- Take photos of fire stopping before ceilings or boxing go back
File the record of locations and products with your fire safety paperwork. It helps whoever checks the building next.
A flagged gap shouldn’t wait for the next assessment. Have it sealed, then keep the record so the item can be closed.
Fire rated sealant around Dunning
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.
Community buildings like St Serf's Church are part of the picture too: older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking.

Questions from Dunning
How do Scotland’s building regulations apply to fire-rated sealant in Dunning?
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 carry out fire risk assessments, so your fire risk assessor or building control will advise on what’s needed.
Do you cover smaller places like Dunning?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we’re part of it.
What information do you need?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.
Do you take on fire stopping in schools and offices?
Yes. Occupied flats, HMOs, offices and schools are all fine and we plan access around the people using them. Out-of-hours work can be arranged.
Where do you work from?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. Our applicators cover Dunning, along with the rest of our area.
Will you assess my building’s fire safety?
No, assessment isn’t something we do. Once you have a specification or action list from your assessor or designer, we will quote for the sealant work on it.
How do I get a quote for fire rated sealant in Dunning?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Call for a quick quote.
What happens on the day
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, protect the area around them, do the work and clear up. It usually takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. Somewhere like Dunning may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- We plan the order of work and access, floor by floor or flat by flat.
- We take out any damaged or unsuitable sealant.
- Dust and loose debris are cleaned from each gap.
- We apply and tool the sealant to the product’s tested detail.
- We record what was done and flag anything that needs a different system.
Preparing for the visit
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on

Related advice
When it isn’t the sealant
To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- Walls or floors that weren’t built to resist fire
- Doors that are not fire doors in the first place
- Sign-off of the building, which sits with building control or your assessor
If in doubt, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will say what we think before you book.

What we’re called out for in Dunning
A lot of fire stopping is out of sight: above ceilings, inside risers and behind panels. Because nobody sees it, gaps go unnoticed until an assessor or surveyor looks.
Look out for these signs:
- Gaps filled with a product that is not fire-rated
- Fire seals that have cracked with movement
- Fire stopping disturbed by later work
- Door frames with gaps between frame and wall
In and around Dunning, as anywhere, good fire rated sealant starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- Is VAT in the price?
- The length of the guarantee
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
Why it’s worth doing now in Dunning
Waiting for the next refit can leave a gap open for years. On its own, sealing it now is a small job and needn’t wait for anything else. 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.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we will go through it with you.
