When something else is needed
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Deciding what fire stopping a building needs
- Problems with the door itself rather than the gap around the frame
- Big openings where sealant alone isn’t the tested solution
If you are not sure, just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Why act early in Fearn
Squirting in whichever sealant is nearest does not make a fire seal. Fire-rated products are tested in set gap sizes, depths and substrates, so both the product and the method matter. Around Fearn, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster.
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.

Fearn: your questions answered
Do Scottish building rules affect fire-rated sealant work in Fearn?
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.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Fearn station?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before work begins.
How long will you be here?
As a guide, most jobs take from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. Larger jobs naturally take longer.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
What should I tell you?
A short description and the location, with photos by email if possible. We’ll ask anything else we need to know.
How do I get a quote for fire rated sealant in Fearn?
We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. You’ll get a clear quote before any work starts.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old sealant, and it traps any mould or water underneath. It all has to come out first.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
We’ll suggest a colour to suit the surroundings, from white and clear to greys and other shades. The choice depends on the product the joint needs.
What we do, step by step
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building and we leave things clean and tidy. In smaller Scottish places, parking is usually less of an issue than access and distance. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints, and the visit is planned around that.
- We plan the order of work and access, floor by floor or flat by flat.
- We take out any damaged or unsuitable sealant.
- Gaps are cleaned of dust and loose material.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the work
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Related advice
Should I try it myself first?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
What we are called out for in Fearn
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.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Open joints along the top of partitions
- Unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall
- New service routes left unsealed after building work
- Cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant
In and around Fearn, as anywhere, good fire rated sealant starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Different surfaces, different methods
Masonry and concrete
Holes through concrete and block are rarely neat. We check the gap size around the service against the product’s tested range.
Linear gaps
Gaps along the top of partitions are easy to miss above a ceiling. We seal them along their full length so there are no open sections left.
