For a place like Netherton, the journey and timings are planned in advance, so the job can fit around guests, residents or opening hours where possible.

What sealant work can’t fix
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Construction that doesn’t provide fire resistance on its own
- Sign-off of the building, which sits with building control or your assessor
- Problems with the door itself rather than the gap around the frame

What else we do in Netherton
Netherton questions
Do Scottish building rules affect fire-rated sealant work in Netherton?
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’s how we fit it. We don’t certify buildings or carry out fire risk assessments, so your fire risk assessor or building control will advise on what’s needed.
Can you do fire rated sealant in Netherton?
Yes, Netherton is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.
Can I do it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Can you tell me which gaps need fire stopping?
No. Your fire risk assessor, designer or building control decides that. We apply fire-rated sealant to the requirements they set.
Can tenants book the work?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you tell me how many minutes the seal will last?
We don’t give ratings or certificates for our work. The requirement comes from your assessor, designer or building control, and we fit a product whose tested details meet it, recording the locations and products.
What do you put in the joint?
The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
Do you seal gaps around fire door frames?
Yes, where the gap suits a sealant detail. Our work is the gap around the frame, and we will mention anything we notice about the door.
Should I try it myself first?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.

Workplaces and buildings in Netherton
Scotland has its own building regulations, the Building (Scotland) Regulations, with technical handbooks. Fire-rated sealant is installed to the manufacturer’s tested details, though we don’t certify buildings or do fire risk assessments.
Around Netherton, as everywhere, fire rated sealant is only as good as the preparation behind it. For buildings such as Netherton Church, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.

Why act early in Netherton
Squirting in whichever sealant is nearest doesn’t make a fire seal. A fire-rated product only performs as tested when it’s installed to its tested detail, so both the product and the method matter. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.

Aftercare tips
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Never patch a fire seal with standard sealant
- Don’t paint over fire sealant until it has cured
- Look in service cupboards and ceiling voids from time to time
- Report cracked or damaged seals as soon as you notice them
Tell other trades that the gaps have been sealed, and make sure anything they disturb is resealed with a suitable product. A lot of damaged fire stopping comes from later work.
Any job that breaks through a wall or ceiling should include resealing. Doing it at the time avoids leaving gaps behind.
What we do, step by step
Once we’re on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. Outdoor work around Netherton depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Work indoors is not affected.
- Before starting, we go through the specification or action list with you.
- Each gap is measured and its substrate and service noted.
- Any non-fire-rated filler is removed.
- The specified fire-rated sealant goes in over any backing its detail requires.
- Every location is recorded with the product used for your records.
