How the visit works
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access, and the area is left clean. For a place like Lendalfoot, longer drives are planned in advance. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- We start with the survey or action list, checking the size and surfaces of every gap.
- We remove any old or unsuitable filler and clean the gap.
- Backing or fill is fitted where the product’s tested detail calls for it.
- We apply the fire-rated or intumescent sealant to the specified depth and tool it.
- Finally, we list where we worked and what we used, for your records.
Before we arrive
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Tell us about any water getting in

FAQs for Lendalfoot
Do Scottish building rules affect fire-rated sealant work in Lendalfoot?
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’s 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.
Will you come out to Lendalfoot?
Yes, we do. We work across all of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can you give us a record of the work?
Yes. You get a list of where we worked and what we used.
Is standard sealant good enough for a fire gap?
No. Standard sealants are not made or tested to stop fire. We cut it out and reseal with a fire-rated product.
Which products do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice, and we’ll explain our choice.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, and it traps any mould or water underneath. We remove it all first.
How long does fire rated sealant take?
Typically it takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. Larger jobs naturally take longer, and we’ll tell you how long to expect.

What we are called out for in Lendalfoot
In some buildings the gap was filled with the wrong thing in the first place: ordinary expanding foam, standard silicone or decorators’ caulk in a place that needed a tested fire seal. It looks sealed, but it isn’t fire-rated.
People usually contact us after spotting one of these:
- Holes left by a change of layout
- Open holes round services passing through fire walls
- Gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs
- Ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed
Whether the job is in Lendalfoot itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish.

What the job involves on each surface
Linear gaps
Head-of-wall gaps are often hidden above suspended ceilings. We work along the whole run.
Plasterboard walls
Many fire-resisting walls in flats, offices and conversions are plasterboard. The sealant has to be one tested in plasterboard.
What we can’t put right
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Fire doors that need new seals, closers or hardware
- Large holes that need a different fire-stopping system
- Fire risk assessments, which need a qualified assessor
If you’re not sure, just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Keeping the joints in good condition
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
- Include fire stopping when you schedule refits
- Store the list of sealed gaps with your building paperwork
- Get damaged fire seals looked at promptly
Let contractors know where fire stopping has been done, and make sure anything they disturb is resealed with a suitable product. A lot of damaged fire stopping comes from later work.
Open gaps don’t only matter in a fire: they also let noise, draughts and sometimes pests through. Sealing them early helps on every front.
