DIY versus a professional finish
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
About our fire rated sealant in Haugh of Urr
Filling a fire-stopping gap with standard silicone or caulk does not make it fire-rated. We cut out the wrong material and reseal with a fire-rated product tested for that kind of gap. If you have gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment and unsealed gaps around fire door frames, we can help.
Work in a place like Haugh of Urr is planned ahead, journey included, so the job can fit around guests, residents or opening hours where possible.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once the job is done.

Quotes for fire rated sealant in Haugh of Urr
Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:
- Any mould that needs treating
- The number and length of the joints
- How easy the joints are to reach
- Which sealant suits the joint
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, along with when we can work on site. Ask us for a quote and we will go through it with you.
Asking for a quote
You don’t need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- The problem you’ve noticed
- A few photos by email, if you can
- Whether it’s a home or a business
Call for a quick quote, or email us if that is easier. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we will talk you through the work and give you a clear price.
Signs you need fire rated sealant in Haugh of Urr
Gaps also open up as buildings move: a seal that cracks or pulls away leaves a path for smoke. Knocks, maintenance and building work damage it further.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Open gaps behind door architraves
- Ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed
- Gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment
- Damaged fire sealant left by other trades
Community buildings like Urr Parish Church are part of the picture too: gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.

Leave it or put it right?
Waiting for the next refit can leave a gap open for years. On its own, sealing it now is a small job. 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.
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.
Why book with us
- Tidy, careful work
- Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
- Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas
- Over 20 years’ experience
