Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Kings Park
Until it’s heated, intumescent sealant behaves like an ordinary sealant; in a fire it expands into the joint. Which product suits a gap depends on its width, the materials either side and what runs through it, so we work to the manufacturer’s details. If you are dealing with unsealed gaps around fire door frames and open holes round services passing through fire walls, we can help, on service penetrations, linear gaps and pipe & cable gaps alike.
Work in a place like Kings Park is planned ahead, journey included, so it can be fitted around bookings or opening times where possible.
Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Can I do it myself?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

For buildings such as St Columba's Church, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building. For landlords with property near Stirling station, any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.

Common questions in Kings Park
Do you cover smaller places like Kings Park?
Yes, Kings Park is covered. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

What does fire rated sealant cost?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Call for a quick quote.
Will you leave a mess?
We keep the work tidy. Nearby surfaces are protected, and we clear up when we are done.
Do I have to be there?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often happy for the work to be arranged.
Do the sealants smell?
Possibly a little. It fades as the sealant cures.
What’s the difference between intumescent and fire-rated sealant?
Fire-rated is the broad term for sealants tested for fire stopping. Intumescent ones swell in heat, and they’re one of the options. The specification and the tested detail decide which is used.
What we’re called out for in Kings Park
Sealant applied too thin, without the backing its detail needs, or onto dust will not perform as it was tested. We see plenty of fire stopping that was hurried.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Gaps filled with a product that is not fire-rated
- Door frames with gaps between frame and wall
- Gaps left after a refit or conversion
- Damaged fire sealant left by other trades
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Wallace High School, fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.
Questions to ask before booking
- Is VAT in the price?
- Which colour the sealant will be
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- How much experience the applicator has
The process
The work is kept neat and contained to the area we are working on, so you can carry on as normal. The job normally takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access, and we explain the cure time before we leave. Around Kings Park, distance and access matter more than parking. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work.
- We start with the survey or action list, checking the size and surfaces of every gap.
- Old or unsuitable sealant is cut out and the gap cleaned.
- Backing or fill is fitted where the product’s tested detail calls for it.
- The sealant goes in to the depth its detail sets, then it’s tooled off.
- We record the locations and products used for your records.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Tell us if parking is tricky

When it is not the sealant
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:
- Assessing a building’s fire safety
- Construction that does not provide fire resistance on its own
- Big openings where sealant alone is not the tested solution
If in doubt, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will say what we think.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Pipe & cable gaps
- Linear gaps
- Door frames
- Flats & HMOs
- Service penetrations
- Plasterboard & masonry
Leave it or put it right?
For some gaps, sealant is not the right answer and another system is needed. Big openings, bundles of cables and plastic pipes may need batts, collars or wraps instead. If a gap is not suitable for sealant, we will tell you. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.
