Are the rules for fire-rated sealant different in Scotland?
Building work in Scotland comes under the Building (Scotland) Regulations and their technical handbooks. Whatever the rules, fire-rated sealant has to be installed to the manufacturer’s tested details, and that is how we fit it. We do not certify buildings or carry out fire risk assessments, so your fire risk assessor or building control will advise on what’s needed.
Are you insured?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, with over 20 years’ experience in sealant work.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, we can. More than one area can go on one quote.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes, for a year. If anything isn’t right with the work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.
Do I need to be at home?
It depends on the job. Inside work needs someone to give us access.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
Yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available, and we agree the colour with you before we start.
Can you fill the gap behind a fire door frame?
Yes, where the gap suits a sealant detail. We seal the frame-to-wall gap, not the door itself.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- File the fire-stopping record where your assessor can find it
- Keep photos of seals that will be hidden
- Plan fire stopping into any work that goes through walls or floors
- Tell trades working in the building that fire seals must be put back
Avoid covering a sealed gap with anything that isn’t part of the tested detail. If it needs repair, use the same type of product. We can tell you which product we used.
An open gap is not only a fire issue: noise, draughts and even pests can come through too. Dealing with them early helps with all of these.
For landlords and businesses
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can go on one quote.
We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.

Do you need fire rated sealant in Kirkton of Maryculter?
Sealant applied too thin, without the backing its detail needs, or onto dust won’t perform as it was tested. Rushed fire stopping is common.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Gaps left after a refit or conversion
- Sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list
- Door frames with gaps between frame and wall
- Gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs
If you let a flat or house near Portlethen station, new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant.
Before you book anyone
- Who turns up on the day
- How long the guarantee is
- How the colour is chosen
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
When something else is needed
We’d rather tell you now than do work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:
- Issuing a fire rating or certificate for a building
- Fire doors that need new seals, closers or hardware
- Assessing a building’s fire safety
If in doubt, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Linear gaps
- Flats & HMOs
- Service penetrations
- Pipe & cable gaps
- Plasterboard & masonry
- Door frames
Leave it or put it right?
Doing it once, properly, beats doing it twice. If the details weren’t followed, the seal may need redoing once someone inspects it. 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.
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.
What you get with us
- 20+ years of sealant experience
- Old sealant always removed completely
