About our fire rated sealant in Glenmavis
A fire seal relies on being installed the way it was tested: the right depth, the right backing and the right product for the substrate. That’s the part we focus on. If you have standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap and fire stopping disturbed by later work, we can put it right.
For a place like Glenmavis, the journey and timings are planned in advance, so the job can fit around guests, residents or opening hours where possible.
Our work is backed for twelve months, in Glenmavis and everywhere else we cover.

When to call us in Glenmavis
Door frames are a common weak spot. The architrave hides the gap between frame and wall, so it can be left open when a door is replaced.
The most common problems we see are:
- Door frames with gaps between frame and wall
- Fire stopping disturbed by later work
- New service routes left unsealed after building work
- Cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Parish Church, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.

FAQs for Glenmavis
I let a flat near Coatdyke station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Are the rules for fire-rated sealant different in Scotland?
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 do not certify buildings or carry out fire risk assessments, so your fire risk assessor or building control will advise on what’s needed.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
We’re a Crawley-based firm. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
What does fire rated sealant cost?
Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. For a quick quote, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a short description of the job.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No, because it fails. We remove every bit of old sealant first, so the new joint bonds to clean surfaces.
Do you do fire sealant around door frames?
Yes. The joint between frame and wall is sealed with a fire-rated sealant, to the product’s details. The door leaf and its hardware need a door specialist.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Only a few details: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. Then send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.
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.
What affects the cost of fire rated sealant
You’ll get a clear quote before work begins. It’s based on:
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Any mould that needs treating
- The size of the job
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask about the job first and send you a clear quote before work begins.
Helping us quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- How we’d reach the joints
- The address or postcode of the job
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- The type of property
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is, and add photos by email if you can.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Don’t fill fire-stopping gaps with ordinary foam or silicone
- Ask which product was used before you paint
- Store the list of sealed gaps with your building paperwork
- Ask every contractor to reseal any fire stopping they disturb
Any fire seal that is cut or drilled needs resealing to its tested detail. If you need new services through a sealed wall, plan the fire stopping as part of the job.
Small gaps around services are simple to deal with while there are only a few. Leave them and each new job adds another hole.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Glenmavis
Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room. We have worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
We also work for property managers and facilities teams in Glenmavis and across North Lanarkshire. Several sites can be quoted together.
Why act early in Glenmavis
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 work involved is often modest. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.
What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.
What you get with us
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
- Trusted Arbo and Everbuild sealants
- Full insurance on every job

Advice
DIY versus a professional finish
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again.
