What affects the quote in Padanaram
The price is agreed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- How many areas need sealing
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- When we can work, for business premises
- Any mould that needs treating
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
Asking for a quote
You don’t need to know the technical terms. Just tell us:
- The address or postcode of the job
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- How we’d reach the joints
- Whether it has been sealed before
Call for a quick quote, or send an email if you’d rather. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we’ll explain what’s involved and send you a clear quote.
Common problems we fix in Padanaram
Movement in the structure can open gaps too: cracked or debonded sealant leaves an open route through the wall. Damage from cleaning, knocks and maintenance adds to it.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Old fire sealant that has split or come away
- Open joints along the top of partitions
- Fire stopping disturbed by later work
- New service routes left unsealed after building work
For jobs in and around Padanaram, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.
Questions to ask before booking
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- What product goes in the joint
- What happens if the job turns out different
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are

Questions from Padanaram
Will you come out to Padanaram?
Yes, we do. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
How do Scotland’s building regulations apply to fire-rated sealant in Padanaram?
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 is how we fit it. We do not certify buildings or do fire risk assessments; your assessor or building control can tell you what’s required.
What does fire rated sealant cost?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. You’ll get a clear quote before we start.
Do you carry out fire risk assessments?
No. That’s for a fire risk assessor, designer or building control. Our job is applying the sealant to their specification.
Do the sealants smell?
Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
What fire rating will the seal have?
We do not issue ratings or certificates ourselves. The performance comes from the product’s tested details and the specification from your assessor or designer; we install to those details and record what we did.
Can I do it myself?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We’re approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Padanaram
We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order.
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:
- Issuing a fire rating or certificate for a building
- Walls or floors that weren’t built to resist fire
- Fire doors that need new seals, closers or hardware
If you’re not sure, just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
What we seal
- Plasterboard & masonry
- Door frames
- Pipe & cable gaps
- Service penetrations
- Flats & HMOs
- Linear gaps
Leave it or put it right?
A quick fill with any sealant to hand isn’t fire stopping. A fire-rated product only performs as tested when it’s installed to its tested detail, so both the product and the method matter. 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.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we will go through it with you.

Surface by surface
Plasterboard walls
Plasterboard partitions are common in flats, offices and conversions. The sealant has to be one tested in plasterboard for each gap size.
Flats and HMOs
Working in occupied flats needs some planning. Access to flats and common areas is agreed in advance so residents know what to expect.
What happens on the day
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. Most jobs take from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. Outdoor work around Padanaram 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.
- We go through the gaps on your list or survey and check each one’s size and substrate.
- Old or unsuitable sealant is cut out and the gap cleaned.
- Backing or fill is fitted where the product’s tested detail calls for it.
- Fire-rated or intumescent sealant is applied to the right depth and tooled.
- Locations and products are noted so you have them on file.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Clear the area around the work
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
