Kinlochmore Fire Rated Sealant
Problem with your fire-stopping gaps in Kinlochmore? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

About our fire rated sealant in Kinlochmore
A gap around a door frame, a linear joint at the head of a wall and a hole round a pipe are each sealed differently. Measuring the gap and checking what it’s made of comes first, then apply it to the depth its tested detail calls for. We work on pipe & cable gaps, flats & HMOs and plasterboard & masonry, and common reasons people get in touch are gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment and gaps left after a refit or conversion.
For a place like Kinlochmore, the journey and timings are planned in advance, so the job can fit around guests, residents or opening hours where possible.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

When it is not the sealant
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Issuing a fire rating or certificate for a building
- Assessing a building’s fire safety
- Doors that are not fire doors in the first place
If in doubt, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we seal
- Plasterboard & masonry
- Service penetrations
- Pipe & cable gaps
- Linear gaps
- Flats & HMOs
- Door frames
Different surfaces, different methods
Linear gaps
Gaps along the top of partitions are easy to miss above a ceiling. We seal them along their full length leaving no stretch unsealed.
Door frames
We deal with the gap around the frame, not the door. Doors, seals and closers are for a door specialist.
What affects the quote in Kinlochmore
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- Access and height
- Any working-time requirements on site
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 to tell us for a quote
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Please mention:
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- How we’d reach the joints

Do you have insurance?
Yes, we’re fully insured for domestic and commercial work.
Where do you work from?
We’re a Crawley-based firm. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Can you fill the gap behind a fire door frame?
Yes. We seal the gap between the frame and the wall with a suitable fire-rated product, to the product’s details. The door leaf and its hardware need a door specialist.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint.
Do I need to be at home?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. Indoors, that normally means someone at home.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.
Can I do it myself?
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.

- Old fire sealant that has split or come away
- Joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey
- Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
Around Kinlochmore, as everywhere, fire rated sealant is only as good as the preparation behind it.
Questions to ask before booking
- How the colour is chosen
- Who turns up on the day
- How long the guarantee is
- What the cure time is
Aftercare tips
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Include fire stopping when you schedule refits
- Don’t paint over fire sealant until it has cured
- Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
- Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks
File the record of locations and products with your fire safety paperwork. It helps whoever checks the building next.
If a fire risk assessment has flagged a gap, do not leave it for the next one. Get it sealed and recorded so the item can be closed.
