About our fire rated sealant in Kirkhill
Filling a fire-stopping gap with standard silicone or caulk doesn’t make it fire-rated. We cut out the wrong material and reseal with a fire-rated product tested for that kind of gap. If you have gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment and cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant, we can put it right.
Work in a place like Kirkhill is planned ahead, journey included, so the job can fit around guests, residents or opening hours where possible.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee, so you are covered after we’ve gone.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. We have worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. We can quote for more than one property at once.
Common problems we fix in Kirkhill
Over time, buildings change layout and use. A house turned into flats or an HMO, or an office split into smaller units, brings new walls, new service routes and new gaps.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall
- Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
- Joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey
- Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Cambuslang Baptist Church, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.
What your quote should include
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- Whether you can choose the colour
- Is VAT in the price?
- How hidden problems are handled
Why deal with it now?
A quick fill with any sealant to hand is not fire stopping. Fire-rated products are tested in set gap sizes, depths and substrates, so both the product and the method matter. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.
Why Kirkhill customers choose us
- A 12-month guarantee on all work
- Tidy, careful work
- Fully insured
- An ARBOMaster approved applicator

Can I do it myself?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
How it works
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and tidy away. Most jobs take a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. Outdoor work around Kirkhill depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- First we work through your list or survey, measuring each gap and checking what it’s formed in.
- Old or unsuitable sealant is cut out and the gap cleaned.
- We put in whatever backing or fill the product detail specifies.
- Fire-rated or intumescent sealant is applied to the right depth and tooled.
- Finally, we list where we worked and what we used, for your records.
How to prepare
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Your questions about fire rated sealant in Kirkhill
Will you come out to Kirkhill?
Yes, we do. We work across all of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do you work for landlords with property near Kirkhill station?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear price.
How long will you be here?
It depends on the size of the job, but as a guide it takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. We will tell you when we quote.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. Fresh sealant does not stick to old sealant, and it traps any mould or water underneath. We remove it all first.
Do you certify the fire stopping?
We don’t give ratings or certificates for our work. The requirement comes from your assessor, designer or building control, and we fit a product whose tested details meet it.
Do you carry out fire risk assessments?
No. Your fire risk assessor, designer or building control decides that. We apply fire-rated sealant to the requirements they set.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes. All our work carries our one-year guarantee.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured for domestic and commercial work.
