Fire rated sealant in Roybridge

A fire seal relies on being installed the way it was tested: the right depth, the right backing and the right product for the substrate. That detail is what we take care over. We’re often asked to deal with old fire sealant that has split or come away and joints picked up in a fire-stopping survey, across door frames, flats & HMOs and service penetrations.

Commercial work around smaller Scottish places tends to mean hotels, guest houses, schools and halls rather than offices. Each needs sound sealant in its washrooms and kitchens, and fire-rated joints kept in good order.

There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

Why it’s worth doing now in Roybridge

Waiting for the next refit can leave a gap open for years. Sealing the gap now is a contained job on its own. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.

There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a quick quote, please drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll talk you through it.

When it isn’t the sealant

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Large holes that need a different fire-stopping system
  • Fire doors that need new seals, closers or hardware
  • A wall that is not a fire-resisting element to begin with

Not sure which it is? You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we seal

  • Linear gaps
  • Door frames
  • Flats & HMOs
  • Plasterboard & masonry
  • Service penetrations
  • Pipe & cable gaps

Common problems we fix in Roybridge

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.

The most common problems we see are:

  • Linear gaps at the head of walls
  • Unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall
  • Old fire sealant that has split or come away
  • Holes left by a change of layout

Community buildings like St Margaret's Church are part of the picture too: service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether you can choose the colour
  • What product goes in the joint
  • Whether they seal over old material or remove it
  • What the quote includes, VAT included or not

Choosing a sealant specialist

How to look after the new joints

Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Keep pictures of seals that will be hidden
  • Include hidden areas like risers in routine checks
  • Do not fill fire-stopping gaps with ordinary foam or silicone
  • Ask every contractor to reseal any fire stopping they disturb

Avoid covering a sealed gap with anything that isn’t part of the tested detail. If it needs repair, use the same type of product. We can tell you which product we used.

It’s easiest to seal gaps while they’re few and easy to reach. Over time, more work adds more holes and the job gets bigger.

What affects the cost of fire rated sealant

For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:

  • The amount of work
  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
  • Access and height
  • Working hours on commercial sites

A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

Asking for a quote

To make quoting easier, please include:

  • The rough size of the job
  • The address or postcode of the job
  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
  • If someone has resealed it before

Every job is quoted individually, so the first step is telling us about yours. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details.

How it works

You do not need to clear the whole room or building before we come, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the job takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building in most cases. Around Roybridge, distance and access matter more than parking. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work, and the visit is planned around that.

  1. We go through the gaps on your list or survey and check each one’s size and substrate.
  2. We remove any old or unsuitable filler and clean the gap.
  3. We put in whatever backing or fill the product detail specifies.
  4. The sealant goes in to the depth its detail sets, then it’s tooled off.
  5. We record the locations and products used for your records.

Preparing for the visit

  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Tell us if parking is tricky
  • Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

FAQs for Roybridge

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

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 do not certify buildings or carry out fire risk assessments, so your fire risk assessor or building control will advise on what’s needed.

Do you cover smaller places like Roybridge?

Yes, Roybridge is covered. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

Can I choose the sealant colour?

We will suggest a colour to suit the surroundings, from white and clear to greys and other shades. The choice depends on the product the joint needs.

Do the sealants smell?

It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are glad to have it sorted.

Should I try DIY first?

That depends on the joint. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.

What sealant do you use?

The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.

Do you do fire sealant around door frames?

Yes. We seal the gap between the frame and the wall with a suitable fire-rated product following the tested details. The door, its seals and closer are for a door specialist.
