When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. Most jobs take from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. For a place like Kinlochard, longer drives are planned in advance. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.

  1. We plan the order of work and access, floor by floor or flat by flat.
  2. We take out any damaged or unsuitable sealant.
  3. Dust and loose debris are cleaned from each gap.
  4. The fire-rated or intumescent sealant is applied and tooled to the tested detail.
  5. Locations and products are written up and any gaps unsuitable for sealant are flagged.

Before we arrive

  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

How we quote for fire rated sealant

For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:

  • The type of sealant required
  • The number and length of the joints
  • The number of rooms or windows
  • Whether the work is at height

What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask about the job first and give you a clear price before any work starts.

Asking for a quote

Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:

  • Whether it’s a home or a business
  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
  • What’s wrong with the joints now
  • Pictures of the joints, sent by email

It all starts with a short chat. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we’ll talk you through what we’d do. Whenever you’re ready, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.

What fire rated sealant looks like in Kinlochard

In Scotland, building work comes under the Building (Scotland) Regulations and their technical handbooks. We install fire-rated sealant to the product’s tested details; we don’t certify buildings or carry out fire risk assessments.

Whether the job is in Kinlochard itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish. In and around Kinlochard, as anywhere, good fire rated sealant starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep the joints looking good and working properly:

  • Include fire stopping when you schedule refits
  • Look in service cupboards and ceiling voids from time to time
  • Never patch a fire seal with standard sealant
  • Keep the record of products and locations with your fire safety documents

Follow the cure time we give you before decorating over the sealant. Not every fire-rated sealant takes paint, so ask us which we used.

It’s easiest to seal gaps while they’re few and easy to reach. Leave them and each new job adds another hole and the list grows.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:

  • Fire doors that need new seals, closers or hardware
  • Sign-off of the building, which sits with building control or your assessor
  • Assessing a building’s fire safety

Not sure which it is? You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we seal

  • Linear gaps
  • Flats & HMOs
  • Door frames
  • Service penetrations
  • Pipe & cable gaps
  • Plasterboard & masonry

What the job involves on each surface

Door frames

A door can only do its job if the gap behind its frame is sealed too. We fill it with a fire-rated product suited to the materials either side.

Flats and HMOs

In occupied buildings, we plan the order of work with you. We agree access to each flat and the common parts before work begins.
