Fire rated sealant in Grange of Lindores

Why deal with it now?

Fire-rated sealants are less forgiving than ordinary ones. Depth, backing and surface preparation all affect how a seal performs, and we work to the product details every time. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.

A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you’re unsure, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

About our fire rated sealant in Grange of Lindores

We don’t assess buildings or decide what fire stopping is needed; your assessor, designer or building control sets that out. Our part is applying the specified sealant carefully, to the right depth and with the right backing. If you are dealing with gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs and unsealed gaps around fire door frames, we can help, whatever the surface.

For holiday lets, guest houses and community buildings in or near Grange of Lindores, washroom and kitchen sealant and any fire-rated joints need the same attention as anywhere.

Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

How it works

On the day, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we’re doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. Most jobs take from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. Around Grange of Lindores, distance and access matter more than parking. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints, and the visit is planned around that.

  1. We go through the gaps on your list or survey and check each one’s size and substrate.
  2. Old or unsuitable sealant is cut out and the gap cleaned.
  3. Backing or fill is fitted where the product’s tested detail calls for it.
  4. We apply the fire-rated or intumescent sealant to the specified depth and tool it.
  5. Finally, we list where we worked and what we used, for your records.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Surface by surface

Masonry and concrete

Masonry is dusty and porous, so preparation matters. The gap is cleaned and backed where required before applying the sealant.

Plasterboard walls

Service holes in plasterboard are often rough and oversized. Where a hole is bigger than the sealant’s tested range, it needs another approach, and we’ll tell you.

Your questions about fire rated sealant in Grange of Lindores

Is Grange of Lindores within the area you cover?

Yes, Grange of Lindores is covered. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

How do Scotland’s building regulations apply to fire-rated sealant in Grange of Lindores?

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 do fire risk assessments; your assessor or building control can tell you what’s required.

Can I use normal mastic around a pipe through a fire wall?

No. Where a fire-rated seal is needed, it has to be a product tested for that use.

Do you certify the fire stopping?

Ratings and certificates aren’t something we issue. What’s required is set by your assessor or designer, and the product’s tested details show what it achieves; we install to those details and record what we did.

Do you carry out fire risk assessments?

No, we don’t assess buildings. Once you have a specification or action list from your assessor or designer, we can quote for the fire-rated sealant items.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. More than one area can go on one quote.

How long does fire rated sealant take?

A typical job takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, always. There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.

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 doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.

What affects the quote in Grange of Lindores

The quote reflects the job in front of us. We look at:

  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • The product the joint needs
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • Access and height

What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

We also work for property managers and facilities teams. We can quote a run of properties together, and we’re fully insured for the work.

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.

When something else is needed

In fairness, some problems need a different trade:

  • Fire risk assessments, which need a qualified assessor
  • Openings too large for sealant, which need batts, boards or another system
  • Doors that aren’t fire doors in the first place

Not sure which it is? You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll tell you honestly.
