Common problems we fix in Easterhouse
A lot of fire stopping is out of sight: in ceiling voids, service risers and behind boxing. Out of view, damage sits unnoticed until someone inspects.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall
- Sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list
- Unsealed gaps around fire door frames
- Fire seals that have cracked with movement
For buildings such as Saint Benedict's Church, older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking.

FAQs for Easterhouse
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Easterhouse station?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Are the rules for fire-rated sealant different in Scotland?
Scotland has its own building regulations, the Building (Scotland) Regulations, with their own 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.
Are you insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work.
What do you put in the joint?
The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes. Each job is guaranteed for twelve months.
Should I try DIY first?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
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.
Do you work in flats, HMOs and commercial buildings?
Yes. We regularly work in flats, HMOs, schools and offices while they’re in use, with access planned around residents or staff. Out-of-hours work can be arranged where it’s needed.
What sealant work can’t fix
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Sign-off of the building, which sits with building control or your assessor
- Assessing a building’s fire safety
- Walls or floors that weren’t built to resist fire
If you’re not sure, just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
What we seal

How the visit works
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we’re treating, so you can get on with your day. Expect the work to take from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. Outside jobs in Easterhouse need a dry day, because sealant will not bond to a wet joint, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Work indoors isn’t affected.
- 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.
- We apply the fire-rated or intumescent sealant to the specified depth and tool it.
- We record the locations and products used for your records.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

What else we do in Easterhouse
Why it’s worth doing now in Easterhouse
An open gap in a fire-resisting wall is a route for smoke and fire. Sealing it properly restores what the wall was there to do, and the sealing itself is often a contained piece of work. In a place like Easterhouse, small leaks are easy to put off, but water through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.
Combining jobs into one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.
Why book with us
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas

Different surfaces, different methods
Flats and HMOs
Flats and HMOs rely on fire separation between homes and the common parts. We seal the gaps your assessor has identified, flat by flat if needed.
Service penetrations
Different services need different details: metal pipes, cables and plastic pipes aren’t treated the same. Each one is sealed to the product’s tested detail and we flag any that need another system.
