About our fire rated sealant in Spean Bridge
In flats, HMOs, offices and schools, fire stopping is often disturbed by later work. A new cable run or a replaced pipe can leave an open hole behind. We seal them with a product tested for that kind of gap. If you have gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs and gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls, we can help.
For holiday lets, guest houses and community buildings in or near Spean Bridge, the washrooms and kitchens need the same care as any city building, and fire-rated joints should be kept in good order.
Our work is backed for twelve months.

What we do, step by step
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so you don’t need to buy or prepare anything. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. Somewhere like Spean Bridge may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- First we work through your list or survey, measuring each gap and checking what it’s formed in.
- Anything that isn’t fit for the job comes out, and the gap is cleaned.
- Backing or fill is fitted where the product’s tested detail calls for it.
- We apply the fire-rated or intumescent sealant to the specified depth and tool it.
- We record the locations and products used for your records.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Clear the area around the work

Honest limits
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:
- Walls or floors that weren’t built to resist fire
- Deciding what fire stopping a building needs
- Big openings where sealant alone is not the tested solution
If you are not sure, just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
What we seal
- Flats & HMOs

DIY versus a professional finish
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Different surfaces, different methods
Flats and HMOs
In flats and HMOs, the walls and floors between homes and common areas need sealing where services pass through. We work through the gaps on your assessment.
Door frames
We deal with the gap around the frame, not the door. The door leaf, its seals and closer need a door specialist, and we will say if we spot a problem with them.
Keeping the joints in good condition
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Keep general-purpose foam and caulk away from fire-stopping gaps
- Flag any open gap you spot round a pipe or cable
- Keep pictures of seals that will be hidden
- Tell trades working in the building that fire seals must be put back
Tell other trades that the gaps have been sealed, and make sure anything they disturb is resealed with a suitable product. A lot of damaged fire stopping comes from later work.
Small gaps around services are simple to deal with while there are only a few. Leave them and each new job adds another hole.

Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before resealing.

Why deal with it now?
Sealant is not the fix for every opening. Big openings, bundles of cables and plastic pipes may need batts, collars or wraps instead. If a gap is not suitable for sealant, we’ll tell you. 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.
Doing several joints on one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.
