What happens on the day
A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, do the work and tidy away. Most jobs take a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. Outdoor work around Riccarton 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.
- Access to each area is agreed so the work can run in order.
- Old, damaged or unsuitable sealant is removed.
- Dust and loose debris are cleaned from each gap.
- We apply and tool the sealant to the product’s tested detail.
- We record what was done and flag anything that needs a different system.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

Different surfaces, different methods
Linear gaps
A linear joint may need to allow for movement as well as fire. We choose a product and depth that suit the gap and the movement, following the tested detail.
Plasterboard walls
We check that the board around the gap is sound. Loose material is removed so the sealant has a firm edge.
Why deal with it now?
Waiting for the next refit can leave a gap open for years. On its own, sealing it now is a small job and needn’t wait for anything else. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
What you get with us
- Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet
- Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme

Do you need fire rated sealant in Riccarton?
Buildings are refitted and reconfigured over the years. Conversions to flats and HMOs, and office refits, create new walls and new routes for services, with gaps to match.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall
- Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
- Open gaps behind door architraves
- Joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey
If you look after a building such as Kilmarnock Academy, service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.

FAQs for Riccarton
How do Scotland’s building regulations apply to fire-rated sealant in Riccarton?
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 carry out fire risk assessments, so your fire risk assessor or building control will advise on what’s needed.
I let a flat near Kilmarnock station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We’re an ARBOMaster approved applicator, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.
What fire rating will the seal have?
Ratings and certification sit with the product’s test evidence and whoever specified the work. We apply the specified product to the manufacturer’s details and list the locations and products for you.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes, for a year. If anything is not right with the work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.
Can ordinary silicone be used in a fire-stopping gap?
No. It looks sealed but will not perform as fire stopping. A tested fire-rated product is needed, or ask us to do it.
Do you seal gaps around fire door frames?
Yes. Gaps behind architraves are a common job for us. Doors, seals and closers need a door specialist.
How do I get a quote for fire rated sealant in Riccarton?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Ask us for a quote.
