Fire Rated Sealant in Madderty
Problem with your fire-stopping gaps in Madderty? We cut out the old, prepare the joints and apply the right sealant.
- Fire stopping disturbed by later work
- Gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment
- Open holes round services passing through fire walls
What happens if it’s left?
Leaving a gap until a refurbishment comes round can mean years with it open. Sealing the gap now is a contained job on its own. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you are unsure, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk for an honest opinion and a quote.

How we handle fire rated sealant in Madderty
A gap around a door frame, a linear joint at the head of a wall and a hole round a pipe are each sealed differently. Measuring the gap and checking what it’s made of comes first, then the sealant goes in to the depth the product’s details set. Common call-outs are for standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap and open gaps behind door architraves, on flats & HMOs, pipe & cable gaps and service penetrations.
Work in a place like Madderty is planned ahead, journey included, so it can be fitted around bookings or opening times where possible.
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Perth and Kinross.

What we do, step by step
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we are treating, so you can get on with your day. Expect the work to take a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. Outdoor work around Madderty depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- 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.
- 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.
- We record the locations and products used for your records.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on

Should I try it myself first?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again.

When to call us in Madderty
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.
Look out for any of the following:
- Linear gaps at the head of walls
- Old fire sealant that has split or come away
- New service routes left unsealed after building work
- Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
In and around Madderty, as anywhere, good fire rated sealant starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

What fire rated sealant looks like in Madderty
