Why act early in Inverlochy
Paying for fire stopping that has to be redone is a false economy. Work that doesn’t follow the tested detail may have to come out again when the building is next checked. 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 each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part.

About our fire rated sealant in Inverlochy
In flats, HMOs, offices and schools, fire stopping is often disturbed by later work. A new cable run or a replaced pipe can leave an open hole behind. We seal them with a product tested for that kind of gap. Typical jobs include damaged fire sealant left by other trades and cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant, across door frames, pipe & cable gaps and linear gaps.
If you look after holiday lets, a guest house or a community building in or near Inverlochy, the washrooms and kitchens need the same care as any city building, and fire-rated joints should be kept in good order.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

Do you need fire rated sealant in Inverlochy?

Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls
- Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
- Damaged fire sealant left by other trades
- Old fire sealant that has split or come away
For landlords with property near Fort William station, fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through.

Should I try it myself first?
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Questions from Inverlochy
I let a flat near Fort William station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Is Inverlochy within the area you cover?
Yes. Inverlochy is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes. All our work carries our one-year guarantee.
Can ordinary silicone be used in a fire-stopping gap?
No. Ordinary silicone, caulk or foam is not tested as fire stopping. If it’s been used, we remove it and use the right product.
Can you fill the gap behind a fire door frame?
Yes. The joint between frame and wall is sealed with a fire-rated sealant, to the product’s details. The door, its seals and closer are for a door specialist.
Is it worth trying it myself?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.
Can you match 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.
How long will you be here?
As a guide, most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. Larger jobs naturally take longer, and we will tell you how long to expect.
Fire rated sealant around Inverlochy
For seaside hotels, guest houses and holiday lets around Inverlochy, heavy use in the busy months is hard on washroom and kitchen sealant, and any building work there should leave fire-rated joints made good. Scotland has its own building regulations, the Building (Scotland) Regulations, with technical handbooks. We install fire-rated sealant to the product’s tested details, though we don’t certify buildings or do fire risk assessments.
Community buildings like St Mary's Church are part of the picture too: service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Lochaber High School, fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.
