The process
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, protect the area around them, carry out the job and clear up. Most jobs take from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. For a job in Shottermill, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.
- We begin by agreeing the list of gaps from your assessor’s or designer’s requirements.
- Each gap is measured and its substrate and service noted.
- Any non-fire-rated filler is removed and the gap cleaned.
- We fit backing where needed and apply the fire-rated sealant to depth.
- We hand over a list of locations and products.
How to prepare
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Shottermill
A fire seal relies on being installed the way it was tested: correct depth, correct backing and a product suited to the surfaces. That detail is what we take care over, gap by gap. If you have open joints along the top of partitions and gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls, we can help, on pipe & cable gaps, door frames and flats & HMOs alike.
Community buildings, schools and small businesses around places like Shottermill have washrooms and kitchens that see a lot of use. Sealant and fire-rated joints there matter as much as in any larger building.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

When it is not the sealant
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Walls or floors that weren’t built to resist fire
- Problems with the door itself rather than the gap around the frame
- Openings too large for sealant, which need batts, boards or another system
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Flats & HMOs
- Linear gaps
- Pipe & cable gaps
- Door frames
- Plasterboard & masonry
- Service penetrations
What the job involves on each surface
Door frames
The gap between a door frame and the wall around it needs sealing as well as the door itself. We fill it with a fire-rated product suited to the materials either side.
Plasterboard walls
Plasterboard partitions are common in flats, offices and conversions. The sealant has to be one tested in plasterboard for each gap size.
Common questions in Shottermill
Do you work for landlords with property near Haslemere station?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear quote.
Will you come out to Shottermill?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you certify the fire stopping?
Ratings and certification sit with the product’s test evidence and whoever specified the work. Our part is installing the specified product to its tested details and list the locations and products for you.
How long will you be here?
As a guide, most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. Bigger jobs take longer, and we’ll tell you how long to expect.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before applying anything new.
What information do you need?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
We’re a Crawley-based firm, with over 20 years’ experience. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Is it worth trying it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
Common problems we fix in Shottermill
Movement in the structure can open gaps too: a seal that cracks or pulls away leaves a path for smoke. Damage from cleaning, knocks and maintenance adds to it.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls
- Open gaps behind door architraves
- Cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant
- Sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list
Managing a site like Camelsdale Primary School? Then service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.
Before you book anyone

- Is VAT in the price?
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first

Fire rated sealant in Shottermill: local notes
Shottermill has hotels and guest accommodation in and around it. Hotel work can be planned room by room, with out-of-hours working where needed. In England, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires a fire risk assessment for workplaces and for the common parts of blocks of flats, which is often where open fire-stopping gaps are first noticed. We apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details.
For buildings such as St. Stephen's Church, gaps around pipes and cables are worth checking after any building work there. Letting a property close to Haslemere station? Then fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through.

Leave it or put it right?
Doing it once, properly, beats doing it twice. If the details weren’t followed, the seal may need redoing once someone inspects it. In a smaller place like Shottermill, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
