Advice
Your questions about fire rated sealant in Gowrie Park
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 do not certify buildings or do fire risk assessments; your assessor or building control can tell you what’s required.
Do you work for landlords with property near Invergowrie station?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us about the property, and we will send you a clear quote.
Do you seal gaps around fire door frames?
Yes, if the gap is within the product’s tested range. Our work is the gap around the frame and we’ll tell you if we spot problems with the door.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit.
Do I have to be there?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. Indoors, that normally means someone at home.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. Fresh sealant does not stick to old sealant, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. We remove it all first.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes. All our work carries a 12-month guarantee.
How long does fire rated sealant take?
Most jobs take from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access, including preparation and clearing up. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Why act early in Gowrie Park
Squirting in whichever sealant is nearest does not make a fire seal. Fire-rated products are tested in set gap sizes, depths and substrates, which is why we match the product and the method to each gap. In a Scottish city tenement, failed sealant affects more than one flat: a leak can come through the ceiling below, and gaps in shared walls or fire-rated joints matter to every flat.
Doing several joints on one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We’ll give you a clear quote for the lot.
Why us?
- One-year guarantee on every job
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
- ARBOMaster approved applicator
- Over 20 years’ experience

What we are called out for in Gowrie Park
Much fire stopping is hidden: in ceiling voids, service risers and behind boxing. Out of view, damage sits unnoticed until someone inspects.
People usually contact us when they notice one of these:
- Fire seals that have cracked with movement
- Unsealed gaps around fire door frames
- Unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall
- Ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed
If you look after a building such as Menzieshill High School, service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.
What your quote should include
- Is VAT in the price?
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- The length of the guarantee
