Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Hazelbank
Deciding which gaps need fire stopping is not our role; 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. We work on linear gaps, flats & HMOs and service penetrations, and people most often call us about gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls and fire seals that have cracked with movement.
Commercial work around smaller Scottish places tends to mean hotels, guest houses, schools and halls rather than offices. All of them have washrooms, kitchens and fire-rated joints that need looking after.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

Hazelbank questions
Do you cover smaller places like Hazelbank?
Yes, we do. We work across all of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
I let a flat near Lanark station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details for a clear quote.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
In most cases you can choose. We will tell you which colours the right product comes in and agree one before any work starts.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything is not right with the work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.
Will you assess my building’s fire safety?
No, assessment is not 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.
Is it worth trying it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and we’ll quote it together.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.

Advice
Signs you need fire rated sealant in Hazelbank
Many open fire-stopping gaps are made after the building is finished. New cables, pipes and data runs go through walls and ceilings and the hole they leave does not always get resealed.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Open joints along the top of partitions
- Open holes round services passing through fire walls
- Sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list
- Unsealed gaps around fire door frames
In and around Hazelbank, as anywhere, good fire rated sealant starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

For landlords and businesses
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. Several properties can go on one quote.
Can I do it myself?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.
What we cannot put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Walls or floors that weren’t built to resist fire
- Assessing a building’s fire safety
- Large holes that need a different fire-stopping system
If in doubt, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll say what we think.
What we seal
- Pipe & cable gaps
- Flats & HMOs
- Service penetrations
- Plasterboard & masonry
- Door frames
- Linear gaps
Looking after it afterwards
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Do not paint over fire sealant until it has cured
- Tell trades working in the building that fire seals must be put back
- Store the list of sealed gaps with your building paperwork
- Take pictures of fire stopping before ceilings or boxing go back
File the record of locations and products with your fire safety paperwork. It saves time at the next inspection or assessment.
A gap left open in a fire-resisting wall or floor lets smoke spread in ways the building wasn’t designed for. Closing it is normally a straightforward job.
