Fire Rated Sealant in Hurlet
Fire-stopping gaps in Hurlet need attention? We cut out the old, prepare the joints and apply the right sealant, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
- Ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed
- New service routes left unsealed after building work
- Damaged fire sealant left by other trades
What affects the cost of fire rated sealant
The price is agreed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- The type of sealant required
- The number and length of the joints
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- Working hours on commercial sites
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part.
What we need to know
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Try to tell us:
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- If someone has resealed it before
- The type of property
For fire rated sealant in Hurlet, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk. Tell us what the problem is and where, and we will agree the price before any work begins.
How we handle fire rated sealant in Hurlet
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 open joints along the top of partitions, we can help.
In a Scottish city, commercial sealant work covers offices, hotels, student accommodation, care homes and factored tenement blocks. For a building in Hurlet, the job might be washroom resealing or fire-rated sealant around service openings.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, whatever its size.

When something else is needed
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Walls or floors that weren’t built to resist fire
- Sign-off of the building, which sits with building control or your assessor
- Openings too large for sealant, which need batts, boards or another system
If in doubt, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll say what we think.
What we seal
- Pipe & cable gaps
- Linear gaps
- Plasterboard & masonry
- Flats & HMOs
- Door frames
- Service penetrations
How the job changes by surface
Service penetrations
A copper pipe, a cable and a plastic pipe can all need different fire-stopping details. We follow the manufacturer’s tested detail for each.
Plasterboard walls
We check that the board around the gap is sound. Crumbling edges are cleaned back before the sealant goes in.

What fire rated sealant looks like in Hurlet
Scotland has its own building regulations, the Building (Scotland) Regulations, with technical handbooks. We install fire-rated sealant to the product’s tested details; we do not certify buildings or carry out fire risk assessments.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as St Andrew's Academy, service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment. Letting a property close to Nitshill station? Then fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through.

Questions from Hurlet
Do you cover Hurlet for fire rated sealant?
Yes, Hurlet is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
How do Scotland’s building regulations apply to fire-rated sealant in Hurlet?
Scotland has its own building regulations, the Building (Scotland) Regulations, with their own technical handbooks. Whatever the rules, fire-rated sealant has to be installed to the manufacturer’s tested details, and that’s how we fit it. We don’t certify buildings or carry out fire risk assessments, so your fire risk assessor or building control will advise on what’s needed.
Do you provide details of the products used?
Yes. Every gap we seal is listed with the product used so it’s there for the next inspection.
Which products do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, chosen to suit the joint. We’ll tell you what we’re using and why.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes. There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little, and any smell fades as they cure.
Do you carry out fire risk assessments?
No. Your fire risk assessor, designer or building control decides that. Our job is applying the sealant to their specification.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured.
What happens if it’s left?
Fire-rated sealants are less forgiving than ordinary ones. How it’s installed changes how it performs, so we follow the maker’s details on every gap. For landlords in Hurlet, damp and leaks can be a Repairing Standard issue, so failed sealant is best replaced before it becomes a complaint.
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Why book with us
- We are fully insured
- Over 20 years’ experience

Should I try it myself first?
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
