Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Freuchie
We often work from an action list drawn up by a fire risk assessor for buildings in Freuchie. Send us the list or the survey and we will quote for the fire-rated sealant work on it. We’re often asked to deal with door frames with gaps between frame and wall and gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls, on flats & HMOs, pipe & cable gaps and plasterboard & masonry.
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.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

What we do, step by step
Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and tidy away. It generally takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. In smaller Scottish places, parking is generally less of an issue than access and distance. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work.
- First we work through your list or survey, measuring each gap and checking what it’s formed in.
- Anything that isn’t fit for the job comes out, and the gap is cleaned.
- We put in whatever backing or fill the product detail specifies.
- We apply the fire-rated or intumescent sealant to the specified depth and tool it.
- Finally, we list where we worked and what we used, for your records.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know about parking restrictions

Keeping the joints in good condition
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Include fire stopping when you schedule refits
- Ask which product was used before you paint
- Keep the record of products and locations with your fire safety documents
- Photograph sealed gaps before they’re covered up
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.
Open gaps don’t only matter in a fire: they also let noise, draughts and sometimes pests through. Dealing with them early helps with all of these.
Surface by surface
Plasterboard walls
We check that the board around the gap is sound. Crumbling edges are cleaned back before the sealant goes in.
Linear gaps
Some linear gaps have to cope with movement as well as fire. We choose a product and depth that suit the gap and the movement.

Leave it or put it right?
An open gap in a fire-resisting wall is a route for smoke and fire. A proper seal lets the wall do its job again, and the work involved is often modest. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

- Unsealed gaps around fire door frames
- Damaged fire sealant left by other trades

Freuchie: your questions answered
Will you come out to Freuchie?
Yes, we do. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Ladybank station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear price.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured, with over 20 years’ experience in sealant work.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, every time. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Do you work in flats, HMOs and commercial buildings?
Yes, in flats, HMOs, schools, offices and other buildings, occupied or empty. Let us know the building’s hours and we’ll plan the work to suit.
How much does fire rated sealant cost in Freuchie?
There’s no set price, as it 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 work begins.
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 can quote for the fire-rated sealant items.
What do you put in the joint?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice.
