Fire rated sealant in New Aberdeen

Fire rated sealant in New Aberdeen

Where services or frames pass through a fire-resisting wall or floor, the gap around them needs a fire-rated seal. Each gap is sealed to the product maker’s tested detail for its size and substrate, and we can record what went where. If you’re dealing with door frames with gaps between frame and wall and holes left by a change of layout, we can put it right, on linear gaps, plasterboard & masonry and service penetrations alike.

In a Scottish city, commercial sealant work covers offices, hotels, student accommodation, care homes and factored tenement blocks. In New Aberdeen, that can mean resealing washrooms room by room or fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables in common areas.

DIY versus a professional finish

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

The process

All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so there’s nothing for you to buy. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. Inside a flat in New Aberdeen, the job is planned with you; outside, shared parts may need the factor or other owners involved. It helps to know which it is when you get in touch.

  1. Before starting, we go through the specification or action list with you.
  2. We measure every gap and note what it’s in and what passes through.
  3. Any non-fire-rated filler is removed and the gap cleaned.
  4. We fit backing where needed and apply the fire-rated sealant to depth.
  5. We hand over a list of locations and products for your files.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

What the job involves on each surface

Service penetrations

New gaps tend to show up where services have been added. We clean out what’s there and reseal to the right depth.

Linear gaps

A linear joint may need to allow for movement as well as fire. The product and depth are chosen to suit both, following the tested detail.

Landlord and commercial work in New Aberdeen

Landlords and letting agents in New Aberdeen can book us as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order.

Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too. We can quote a run of properties together.

When to call us in New Aberdeen

Movement in the structure can open gaps too: cracked or debonded sealant leaves an open route through the wall. Knocks, maintenance and building work damage it further.

Look out for these signs:

  • Fire seals that have cracked with movement
  • Holes left by a change of layout
  • Gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls
  • Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap

For landlords with property near Aberdeen station, any gap left by new services in shared walls should be closed with a fire-rated product.

Quotes for fire rated sealant in New Aberdeen

Why act early in New Aberdeen

For some gaps, sealant is not the right answer and another system is needed. Big openings, bundles of cables and plastic pipes may need batts, collars or wraps instead. We will say so if a gap needs something other than sealant. For landlords in New Aberdeen, damp and leaks can be a Repairing Standard issue, so it’s worth fixing failed sealant before a tenant reports it.

Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

What you get with us

  • More than 20 years in sealant work
  • Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme
  • We never seal over old sealant
  • We’re fully insured

Questions from New Aberdeen

Do Scottish building rules affect fire-rated sealant work in New Aberdeen?

Scotland has its own building regulations, the Building (Scotland) Regulations, with their own technical handbooks. Fire-rated sealant has to go in to the product’s tested details, and we follow them. We don’t certify buildings or do fire risk assessments; your assessor or building control can tell you what’s required.

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Aberdeen station?

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.

Can ordinary silicone be used in a fire-stopping gap?

No. It might close the gap, but it isn’t a fire-rated seal. Use a product tested for that gap and service, or ask us to do it.

Will the old sealant be removed?

Yes, every time. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.

Can you quote for more than one area?

Yes. Just list everything you need and we will quote it together.

Do I have to be there?

For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What should I tell you?

Only a few details: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. Then drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Will you assess my building’s fire safety?

No. That’s for a fire risk assessor, designer or building control. We apply fire-rated sealant to the requirements they set.
