About our fire rated sealant in Fettercairn
A gap around a door frame, a linear joint at the head of a wall and a hole round a pipe are each sealed differently. We check the size and the substrate before choosing the product, then apply it to the depth its tested detail calls for. We work on flats & HMOs, plasterboard & masonry and pipe & cable gaps, and common reasons people get in touch are ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed and door frames with gaps between frame and wall.
Commercial work around smaller Scottish places tends to mean hotels, guest houses, schools and halls rather than offices. Each needs sound sealant in its washrooms and kitchens, and fire-rated joints kept in good order.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Fettercairn and across Aberdeenshire.

Why deal with it now?
An unsealed gap lets smoke and fire get round a wall that was built to hold them back. Sealing it properly restores what the wall was there to do, and the sealing itself is often a contained piece of work. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.
Combining jobs into one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits. We will send you a clear quote for the lot.

How it works
There’s no need to move everything out, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access in most cases. For a place like Fettercairn, longer drives are planned in advance. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.
- We plan the order of work and access, floor by floor or flat by flat.
- Old, damaged or unsuitable sealant is removed.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Mention any tricky access
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

How much does fire rated sealant cost in Fettercairn?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Ask us for a quote.
Can you tell me how many minutes the seal will last?
We do not give ratings or certificates for our work. The requirement comes from your assessor, designer or building control, and we fit a product whose tested details meet it.
What do you put in the joint?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, picked for each joint. We will tell you what we are using and why.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Our base is Crawley. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, because it fails. The old sealant always comes out first, so the new joint bonds to clean surfaces.
What sealant work can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Big openings where sealant alone isn’t the tested solution
- A wall that is not a fire-resisting element to begin with
- Fire doors that need new seals, closers or hardware
Not sure which it is? You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll tell you honestly.

Commercial buildings in Fettercairn
Scotland has its own building regulations, the Building (Scotland) Regulations, with technical handbooks. Fire-rated sealant is installed to the manufacturer’s tested details, though we don’t certify buildings or do fire risk assessments.
If you let a flat or house near Laurencekirk station, new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant. For buildings such as Fettercairn Parish Church, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.

Aftercare tips
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Ask which product was used before you paint
- Get damaged fire seals looked at promptly
- Plan fire stopping into any work that goes through walls or floors
- Photograph sealed gaps before they’re covered up
Do not add foam, filler or ordinary sealant over a fire seal. Repairs should use a matching fire-rated product. Ask us if you’re not sure which product was used.
A flagged gap shouldn’t wait for the next assessment. Have it sealed, then keep the record.
Surface by surface
Linear gaps
A linear joint may need to allow for movement as well as fire. We choose a product and depth that suit the gap and the movement, following the tested detail.
Service penetrations
Service penetrations are where new gaps often appear. We clean out what’s there and reseal to the right depth.
