What affects the cost of fire rated sealant
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- Working hours on commercial sites
- How many areas need sealing
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- The type of sealant required
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we will explain the quote if you ask.
What we need to know
What to tell us when you ask for a quote:
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Roughly how big the job is
For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or email us if that is easier. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we’ll explain what’s involved and give you a clear price.
Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Seamill
Where services or frames pass through a fire-resisting wall or floor, the gap around them needs a fire-rated seal. We apply intumescent and fire-rated sealants to the manufacturer’s tested details for each gap, with a record of the products and locations if you need one. We work on door frames, flats & HMOs and pipe & cable gaps, and people most often call us about gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs and open holes round services passing through fire walls.
In a smaller place like Seamill, commercial jobs are more likely to be a hotel, guest house, school, surgery or community hall than an office block. All of them have washrooms, kitchens and fire-rated joints that need looking after.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Landlord and commercial work in Seamill
Landlords and agents in Seamill can book us as well as householders. Resealing between tenancies keeps a property looking cared for.
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. We can quote for more than one property at once.
DIY versus a professional finish
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
The process
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so there’s nothing for you to buy. Once we have agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. Most jobs take from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. Somewhere like Seamill may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.
- 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 and the gap cleaned.
- The specified fire-rated sealant goes in over any backing its detail requires.
- Every location is recorded with the product used for your records.
How to prepare
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

Related advice
Why deal with it now?
Leaving a gap until a refurbishment comes round can mean years with it open. Sealing the gap now is a contained job on its own and needn’t wait for anything else. In an older home around Seamill, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.
What it costs depends on the amount of work, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

Questions from Seamill
Do you work for landlords with property near West Kilbride station?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders, and several properties can be quoted together. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Is Seamill within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can you tell me which gaps need fire stopping?
No, assessment isn’t something we do. When your assessor or designer has set out what’s needed, we will quote for the sealant work on it.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
In most cases you can choose. We’ll tell you which colours the right product comes in and agree one before any work starts.
Is it worth trying it myself?
Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
Do I need to be at home?
That depends on where the joints are. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in.
How do I get a quote for fire rated sealant in Seamill?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. To get one, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing and where.
Do you do fire sealant around door frames?
Yes. Gaps behind architraves are a common job for us. The door and its fittings are a separate job for a door specialist.

When to call us in Seamill
Lots of unsealed gaps appear long after the building was completed. New cables, pipes and data runs go through walls and ceilings and the hole they leave does not always get resealed.

- Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
- Door frames with gaps between frame and wall
- Gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment
- Gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls
For buildings such as Barony Parish Church, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there.

Aftercare tips
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Include hidden areas like risers in routine checks
- Keep pictures of seals that will be hidden
- Get damaged fire seals looked at promptly
- Include fire stopping when you schedule refits
Don’t drill through or remove a fire seal without putting it back properly. If you need new services through a sealed wall, plan the fire stopping as part of the job.
A flagged gap shouldn’t wait for the next assessment. Get it sealed and recorded so the item can be closed.
