Fire rated sealant in Invergordon

Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Invergordon

Intumescent sealant looks much like any other sealant until it gets hot; in a fire it expands into the joint. The right product depends on the gap size, the substrate and what passes through, so we work to the manufacturer’s details. If you have gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs and standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap, we can put it right, whatever the surface.

Work in a place like Invergordon is planned ahead, journey included, so it can be fitted around bookings or opening times where possible.

There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

Why deal with it now?

If an assessor has flagged gaps, it makes sense to close them before the next review. Getting them done and written up gives you evidence that the item was dealt with. In a place like Invergordon, small leaks are easy to put off, but water through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.

We don’t show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a quick quote, please send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.

What we are called out for in Invergordon

Lots of unsealed gaps appear long after the building was completed. New cables, pipes and data runs go through walls and ceilings and the hole round the new service is not always sealed again.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey
  • Open joints along the top of partitions
  • Unsealed gaps around fire door frames
  • Gaps filled with a product that isn’t fire-rated

In and around Invergordon, as anywhere, good fire rated sealant starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

What your quote should include

  • What preparation is included
  • Whether they’re fully insured
  • What product goes in the joint
  • What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant

Choosing a sealant specialist

How the visit works

We bring everything the job needs with us, so you don’t need to buy or prepare anything. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. In smaller Scottish places, parking is generally less of an issue than access and distance. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints.

  1. Before starting, we go through the specification or action list with you.
  2. We measure every gap and note what it’s in and what passes through.
  3. Any non-fire-rated filler is removed.
  4. The specified fire-rated sealant goes in over any backing its detail requires.
  5. Every location is recorded with the product used for your files.

How to prepare

  • Mention any tricky access
  • Move anything stored near the joints
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Invergordon: your questions answered

Do Scottish building rules affect fire-rated sealant work in Invergordon?

Building work in Scotland comes under the Building (Scotland) Regulations and their 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 do not certify buildings or carry out fire risk assessments, so your fire risk assessor or building control will advise on what’s needed.

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Invergordon station?

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear quote.

Will we have a record of what was sealed?

Yes. Locations and products are written up when we finish. If you need pictures or a set layout, ask when you get a quote.

How long will you be here?

Most jobs take a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building, including the preparation. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.

What fire rating will the seal have?

Ratings and certification sit with the product’s test evidence and whoever specified the work. We apply the specified product to the manufacturer’s details and list the locations and products for you.

Can you tell me which gaps need fire stopping?

No, we don’t assess buildings. Once you have a specification or action list from your assessor or designer, we will quote for the sealant work on it.

Do I need to be at home?

We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that generally means someone at home.

Do you have insurance?

Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep the joints looking good and working properly:

  • Do not paint over fire sealant until it has cured
  • Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
  • Plan fire stopping into any work that goes through walls or floors
  • Keep general-purpose foam and caulk away from fire-stopping gaps

Keep the record we give you with the building’s fire safety documents. It helps whoever checks the building next.

Open gaps do not only matter in a fire: they also let noise, draughts and sometimes pests through. Dealing with them early helps with all of these.

Surface by surface

Service penetrations

Service penetrations are where new gaps often appear. Old or unsuitable filler comes out before the right sealant goes in.

Door frames

A door can only do its job if the gap behind its frame is sealed too. We seal that gap with a fire-rated sealant suited to the frame and wall.
