Keeping the joints in good condition
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Report cracked or damaged seals as soon as you notice them
- Don’t fill fire-stopping gaps with ordinary foam or silicone
- Keep photos of seals that will be hidden
- Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
Do not add foam, filler or ordinary sealant over a fire seal. If it needs repair, use the same type of product. We can tell you which product we used.
Open gaps do not only matter in a fire: noise, draughts and even pests can come through too. Dealing with them early helps with all of these.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements.
From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.
Workplaces and buildings in Muchalls
If you run a hotel, guest house or holiday let in a coastal place like Muchalls, heavy use in the busy months is hard on washroom and kitchen sealant, and any building work there should leave fire-rated joints made good. Scotland has its own building regulations, the Building (Scotland) Regulations, with technical handbooks. We install fire-rated sealant to the product’s tested details, though we do not certify buildings or do fire risk assessments.
Rented homes near Portlethen station change hands often, and new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant. For buildings such as Saint Ternan's Church, older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking.

Surface by surface
Service penetrations
A copper pipe, a cable and a plastic pipe can all need different fire-stopping details. Each one is sealed to the product’s tested detail.
Door frames
A door can only do its job if the gap behind its frame is sealed too. We seal that gap with a fire-rated sealant suited to the frame and wall.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
If you’re 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 doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
Why it’s worth doing now in Muchalls
A quick fill with any sealant to hand is not fire stopping. Fire-rated products are tested in set gap sizes, depths and substrates, so both the product and the method matter. Around Muchalls, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.
The cost depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.

Muchalls: your questions answered
How do Scotland’s building regulations apply to fire-rated sealant in Muchalls?
Building work in Scotland comes under the Building (Scotland) Regulations and their technical handbooks. Whatever the rules, fire-rated sealant has to be installed to the manufacturer’s tested details, and that’s how we fit it.

Do you guarantee your work?

What sealant do you use?

No. Standard sealants are not made or tested to stop fire. We cut it out and reseal with a fire-rated product.
