Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in St. Ninians
A fire seal relies on being installed the way it was tested: correct depth, correct backing and a product suited to the surfaces. That’s the part we focus on, one gap at a time. If you have open holes round services passing through fire walls and linear gaps at the head of walls, we can help, on flats & HMOs, door frames and service penetrations alike.
In a smaller place like St. Ninians, 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.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list
- Fire stopping disturbed by later work
- Fire seals that have cracked with movement
- Gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs
For landlords with property near Stirling station, new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant.

- What preparation is included
- Whether they’re fully insured
- When the joint can take water or movement
Keeping the joints in good condition
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Don’t paint over fire sealant until it has cured
- Don’t fill fire-stopping gaps with ordinary foam or silicone
- Photograph sealed gaps before they’re covered up
- Allow for resealing whenever new services are run
Don’t add foam, filler or ordinary sealant over a fire seal. If it needs repair, use the same type of product. We can tell you which product we used.
Any job that breaks through a wall or ceiling should include resealing. Doing it at the time avoids leaving gaps behind.

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often happy for the work to be arranged.
Do I have to be there?
We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.

Can I use normal mastic around a pipe through a fire wall?

DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

Leave it or put it right?
Squirting in whichever sealant is nearest doesn’t make a fire seal. Fire-rated products are tested in set gap sizes, depths and substrates, which is why we match the product and the method to each gap. Around St. Ninians, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first and send you a clear quote before we start.
