About our fire rated sealant in Luthermuir
Later work by other trades often breaks through fire stopping, especially in flats, HMOs, offices and schools. One new cable or pipe can leave a gap that nobody goes back to seal. We seal them with a product tested for that kind of gap. If you’re dealing with standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap and door frames with gaps between frame and wall, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
For a place like Luthermuir, the journey and timings are planned in advance, so the job can fit around guests, residents or opening hours where possible.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

Your questions about fire rated sealant in Luthermuir
Will you come out to Luthermuir?
Yes, Luthermuir is covered. We work across all of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
How do Scotland’s building regulations apply to fire-rated sealant in Luthermuir?
Scotland has its own building regulations, the Building (Scotland) Regulations, with their own 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 do fire risk assessments; your assessor or building control can tell you what’s required.
Should I try DIY first?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Can you work in occupied buildings?
Yes. Occupied flats, HMOs, offices and schools are all fine, with access planned around residents or staff. Early starts or out-of-hours work can be arranged if that suits the building.
Where are you based?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. We cover Luthermuir and the rest of Aberdeenshire.
What do you put in the joint?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with our work in that time, tell us and we will put it right.
How the job changes by surface
Service penetrations
A copper pipe, a cable and a plastic pipe can all need different fire-stopping details. We follow the manufacturer’s tested detail for each, and tell you if sealant alone isn’t the right fix.
Plasterboard walls
Plasterboard partitions are common in flats, offices and conversions. The sealant has to be one tested in plasterboard for the gap we’re sealing.
Quotes for fire rated sealant in Luthermuir
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- Which sealant suits the joint
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- When we can work, for business premises
- The size of the job
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first and give you a clear price before work begins.
Helping us quote
There’s no need for technical detail. Just tell us:
- The address or postcode of the job
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
It all starts with a short chat. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is. When it suits you, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.
What we do, step by step
We bring everything the job needs with us, so you do not need to buy or prepare anything. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. For a place like Luthermuir, longer drives are planned in advance. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- 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.
- We apply and tool the sealant to the product’s tested detail.
- We record what was done and flag anything that needs a different system.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Advice
How to look after the new joints
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
- Ask which product was used before you paint
- Include fire stopping when you schedule refits
- Do not fill fire-stopping gaps with ordinary foam or silicone
File the record of locations and products with your fire safety paperwork. It helps whoever checks the building next.
Open gaps don’t only matter in a fire: they also let noise, draughts and sometimes pests through. Dealing with them early helps with all of these.

Do you need fire rated sealant in Luthermuir?
Lots of unsealed gaps appear long after the building was completed. Electricians, plumbers and data installers drill through walls and ceilings and the hole they leave does not always get resealed.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls
- Ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed
- Gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment
- Fire seals that have cracked with movement
If you let a flat or house near Laurencekirk station, new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
