Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you work for landlords with property near Caldercruix station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before work begins.

Do I have to be there?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we have agreed the job, you don’t need to watch us work.
How much does fire rated sealant cost in Limerigg?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. We agree the price before any work begins.
Do you certify the fire stopping?
We don’t certify fire stopping or quote ratings. We apply the specified product to the manufacturer’s details and giving you a record of where it went.
Can ordinary silicone be used in a fire-stopping gap?
No. Where a fire-rated seal is needed, it has to be a product tested for that use, installed to its details.
Fire rated sealant in Limerigg, done properly
Fire-rated sealant closes the gaps around pipes, cables and frames where they pass through a fire-resisting wall or floor. We apply intumescent and fire-rated sealants to the manufacturer’s tested details for each gap, with a record of the products and locations if you need one. Common call-outs are for door frames with gaps between frame and wall and linear gaps at the head of walls, across plasterboard & masonry, pipe & cable gaps and linear gaps.
Commercial work around smaller Scottish places tends to mean hotels, guest houses, schools and halls rather than offices. All of them have washrooms, kitchens and fire-rated joints that need looking after.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right with it, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Quotes for fire rated sealant in Limerigg
There’s no set price list. The quote depends on:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part.
What we need to know
What to tell us when you ask for a quote:
- The type of property
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- Where the job is, and your postcode
For fire rated sealant in Limerigg, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk. Tell us what the problem is and where, and we’ll agree the price before any work begins.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too. We can quote a run of properties together, and we’re fully insured.
What happens if it’s left?
Squirting in whichever sealant is nearest does not make a fire seal. A fire-rated product only performs as tested when it’s installed to its tested detail, which is why we match the product and the method to each gap. In an older home around Limerigg, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.
Combining jobs into one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.

Do you need fire rated sealant in Limerigg?
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 is not always sealed again.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey
- Linear gaps at the head of walls
- Fire seals that have cracked with movement
- Gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls
For landlords with property near Caldercruix station, new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether VAT is included
- What guarantee comes with the work
- Whether they’re fully insured
- When the joint can take water or movement
What we do, step by step
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The work itself takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building from start to finish. Outdoor work around Limerigg depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Work indoors is not affected.
- First we work through your list or survey, measuring each gap and checking what it’s formed in.
- We remove any old or unsuitable filler and clean the gap.
- We put in whatever backing or fill the product detail specifies.
- We apply the fire-rated or intumescent sealant to the specified depth and tool it.
- Locations and products are noted so you have them on file.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

How to look after the new joints
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Keep general-purpose foam and caulk away from fire-stopping gaps
- Keep photos of seals that will be hidden
- Look in service cupboards and ceiling voids from time to time
- Ask which product was used before you paint
Look at the sealed gaps as part of your routine walk-rounds. Watch for cracking, gaps or seals that have been disturbed and get them seen to.
It’s easiest to seal gaps while they’re few and easy to reach. Leave them and each new job adds another hole and the job gets bigger.
