Fire rated sealant in Longmorn
In flats, HMOs, offices and schools, fire stopping is often disturbed by later work. A new cable run or a replaced pipe can leave an open hole behind. Those are the gaps we close, using a tested fire-rated product. We work on linear gaps, service penetrations and pipe & cable gaps, and common reasons people get in touch are gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs and open gaps behind door architraves.
Commercial work around smaller Scottish places tends to mean hotels, guest houses, schools and halls rather than offices. Each needs sound sealant in its washrooms and kitchens, and fire-rated joints kept in good order.
Big or small, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee in Longmorn and across Moray.

When to call us in Longmorn
A lot of fire stopping is out of sight: above ceilings, inside risers and behind panels. Out of view, damage sits unnoticed until someone inspects.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Open joints along the top of partitions
- Open gaps behind door architraves
- Sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list
- Gaps left after a refit or conversion
If you look after a building such as Elgin High School, service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.
Before you book anyone
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- Whether they’re fully insured
- What happens if the job turns out different
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.

Aftercare tips
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Include fire stopping when you schedule refits
- Include hidden areas like risers in routine checks
- Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
- Keep pictures of seals that will be hidden
Any fire seal that’s cut or drilled needs resealing to its tested detail. If you need new services through a sealed wall, plan the fire stopping as part of the job.
When you plan work that goes through walls or ceilings, plan the fire stopping too. Doing it at the time avoids leaving gaps behind.
What affects the cost of fire rated sealant
You’ll get a clear quote before any work starts. It takes into account:
- Working hours on commercial sites
- How many areas need sealing
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
Doing several joints on one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We will give you a clear quote for the lot.
Asking for a quote
To make quoting easier, please include:
- Roughly how big the job is
- Where the property is
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
It all starts with a short chat. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job. Whenever you are ready, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Can I do it myself?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
Leave it or put it right?
A quick fill with any sealant to hand is not fire stopping. A fire-rated product only performs as tested when it’s installed to its tested detail, so both the product and the method matter. 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.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first and give you a clear price before work begins.

Your questions about fire rated sealant in Longmorn
How do Scotland’s building regulations apply to fire-rated sealant in Longmorn?
Building work in Scotland comes under the Building (Scotland) Regulations and their technical handbooks. Fire-rated sealant has to go in to the product’s tested details, and we follow them. We do not certify buildings or do fire risk assessments; your assessor or building control can tell you what’s required.
Is Longmorn within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you seal gaps around fire door frames?
Yes. We often seal open gaps hidden behind the architrave. Doors, seals and closers need a door specialist.
Do you take on fire stopping in schools and offices?
Yes, in flats, HMOs, schools, offices and other buildings, occupied or empty. Tell us how the building is used and we’ll plan around it.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No, and we never do. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new bead soon lifts. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We are an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
What sealant do you use?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, picked for each joint. We explain the product when we quote.
Do I have to be there?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.

What happens on the day
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and explain the cure time. The visit itself generally takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access, depending on the size of the job. In smaller Scottish places, parking is normally less of an issue than access and distance. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work, and the visit is planned around that.
- Access to each area is agreed so the work can run in order.
- Old, damaged or unsuitable sealant is removed.
- Dust and loose debris are cleaned from each gap.
- The fire-rated or intumescent sealant is applied and tooled to the tested detail.
- We record what was done and flag anything that needs a different system.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
