When it isn’t the sealant

New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t solve:

  • Certifying a building or signing off its fire safety
  • Doors that aren’t fire doors in the first place
  • Walls or floors that weren’t built to resist fire

If in doubt, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will say what we think.

Fire rated sealant in Lennoxtown

Where services or frames pass through a fire-resisting wall or floor, the gap around them needs a fire-rated seal. Each gap is sealed to the product maker’s tested detail for its size and substrate, with a record of the products and locations if you need one. We work on flats & HMOs, pipe & cable gaps and plasterboard & masonry, and common reasons people get in touch are gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs and sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list.

In a smaller place like Lennoxtown, commercial jobs are more likely to be a hotel, guest house, school, surgery or community hall than an office block. All of them have washrooms, kitchens and fire-rated joints that need looking after.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same 12-month guarantee in Lennoxtown and across East Dunbartonshire.

What happens on the day

Once we are on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. Somewhere like Lennoxtown may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.

  1. First we work through your list or survey, measuring each gap and checking what it’s formed in.
  2. Old or unsuitable sealant is cut out and the gap cleaned.
  3. We put in whatever backing or fill the product detail specifies.
  4. The sealant goes in to the depth its detail sets, then it’s tooled off.
  5. We record the locations and products used for your records.

Before we arrive

  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • Mention any parking rules near the property

How we quote for fire rated sealant

Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • How easy the joints are to reach
  • Mould in or behind the old joints
  • The number and length of the joints
  • Which sealant suits the joint

A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

What we need to know

There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:

  • How we’d reach the joints
  • How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
  • What’s wrong with the joints now
  • The address or postcode of the job

It all starts with a short chat. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job. When it suits you, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Fire rated sealant in Lennoxtown: local notes

Surface by surface

Service penetrations

Pipes, cables and ducts passing through fire-resisting walls and floors each leave a gap. The sealant is chosen for what passes through and how wide the gap is.

Masonry and concrete

Preparation counts on brick, block and concrete. The gap is cleaned and backed where required.

When to call us in Lennoxtown

Lots of unsealed gaps appear long after the building was completed. Electricians, plumbers and data installers drill through walls and ceilings and the hole round the new service isn’t always sealed again.

Any of these means the joints need attention:

  • Damaged fire sealant left by other trades
  • Open joints along the top of partitions
  • Joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey
  • Gaps left after a refit or conversion

Rented homes near Lenzie station change hands often, and any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.

Choosing a sealant specialist

For landlords and businesses

Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. Several properties can be quoted together.

Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too. Several sites can be quoted together, and we are fully insured for the work.

Aftercare tips

Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:

  • Look in service cupboards and ceiling voids from time to time
  • Do not paint over fire sealant until it has cured
  • Include fire stopping when you schedule refits
  • Ask every contractor to reseal any fire stopping they disturb

File the record of locations and products with your fire safety paperwork. It saves time at the next inspection or assessment.

A flagged gap shouldn’t wait for the next assessment. Have it sealed, then keep the record so the item can be closed.

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 don’t certify buildings or do fire risk assessments; your assessor or building control can tell you what’s required.

A typical job takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.

Should I try DIY first?

Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.

Do you do fire sealant around door frames?

Yes, where the gap suits a sealant detail. Our work is the gap around the frame.

What information do you need?

Will you assess my building’s fire safety?

No. That’s for a fire risk assessor, designer or building control. We apply fire-rated sealant to the requirements they set.
