How we handle fire rated sealant in Moor of Granary
Later work by other trades often breaks through fire stopping, especially in flats, HMOs, offices and schools. A new cable run or a replaced pipe can leave an open hole behind. We seal them with a product tested for that kind of gap. If you’re dealing with open joints along the top of partitions and fire stopping disturbed by later work, we can put it right, on door frames, linear gaps and service penetrations alike.
If you look after holiday lets, a guest house or a community building in or near Moor of Granary, the washrooms and kitchens need the same care as any city building, and fire-rated joints should be kept in good order.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Moor of Granary and across Moray.

Keeping the joints in good condition
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Keep the record of products and locations with your fire safety documents
- Keep general-purpose foam and caulk away from fire-stopping gaps
- Flag any open gap you spot round a pipe or cable
- Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
Tell other trades that the gaps have been sealed, and ask them to reseal anything they cut through. A lot of damaged fire stopping comes from later work.
A gap left open in a fire-resisting wall or floor lets smoke spread in ways the building wasn’t designed for. Sealing it early is a simple step to take.
What we do, step by step
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we’ll take it from there. The job generally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. Around Moor of Granary, distance and access matter more than parking. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work.
- 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.
- The sealant goes in to the depth its detail sets, then it’s tooled off.
- Locations and products are noted so you have them on file.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

How do Scotland’s building regulations apply to fire-rated sealant in Moor of Granary?
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 don’t certify buildings or do fire risk assessments; your assessor or building control can tell you what’s required.
Can you match the sealant colour?
Yes. Sealants come in white, clear, grey and other colours for many products, and we agree the colour with you before we start.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured.
Do you do fire sealant around door frames?
Yes, if the gap is within the product’s tested range. We seal the frame-to-wall gap, not the door itself, and we will mention anything we notice about the door.
Does someone need to be in?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old sealant, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. It all has to come out first.
Do you cover Moor of Granary?
Yes, we do. Our applicators work in Moor of Granary.

Do you need fire rated sealant in Moor of Granary?
Over time, buildings change layout and use. A house turned into flats or an HMO, or an office split into smaller units, brings new walls, new service routes and new gaps.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Fire seals that have cracked with movement
- Joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey
- Gaps filled with a product that is not fire-rated
- Unsealed gaps around fire door frames
If you let a flat or house near Forres station, fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through.

What happens if it’s left?
Fire-rated sealants need more care than everyday sealant. Depth, backing and surface preparation all affect how a seal performs, so we follow the maker’s details on every gap. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part.
