Fire rated sealant in Stevenston

Fire rated sealant in Stevenston, done properly

Ordinary silicone or decorators’ caulk in a fire-stopping gap isn’t a fire-rated seal. Anything unsuitable comes out first and reseal with a fire-rated product tested for that kind of gap. We work on door frames, pipe & cable gaps and linear gaps, and the jobs we see most are sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list and old fire sealant that has split or come away.

In a smaller place like Stevenston, 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.

Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Signs you need fire rated sealant in Stevenston

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.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Gaps left after a refit or conversion
  • Seals cut through by electricians, plumbers or data installers
  • Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
  • Open gaps behind door architraves

For landlords with property near Stevenston station, new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant.

Before booking anyone

  • How the joint is cleaned and prepared
  • Whether all the old sealant comes out first
  • What insurance they hold
  • Who turns up on the day

Our hiring checklist

For landlords and businesses

From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.

Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. We can quote for more than one property at once.

Quotes for fire rated sealant in Stevenston

The price is agreed before any work begins. It’s based on:

  • Access and height
  • The amount of work
  • Whether there’s mould to deal with
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove

Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

What to tell us for a quote

To make quoting easier, please include:

  • Pictures of the joints, sent by email
  • Where the job is, and your postcode
  • Any previous sealing or DIY work
  • What’s wrong with the joints now

A good description makes for an accurate quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is.

Why deal with it now?

An open gap in a fire-resisting wall is a route for smoke and fire. A proper seal lets the wall do its job again, and the sealing itself is often a contained piece of work. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.

Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, along with when we can work on site. Ask us for a quote and we will explain what it covers.

What you get with us

  • 20+ years of sealant experience
  • Old sealant always removed completely
  • We’re fully insured
  • Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet

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
  • Issuing a fire rating or certificate for a building
  • Assessing a building’s fire safety

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

What we seal

  • Flats & HMOs
  • Plasterboard & masonry

Common questions in Stevenston

I let a flat near Stevenston station. Can you help?

Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders, and several properties can go on one quote. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.

Is Stevenston within the area you cover?

Yes, Stevenston is covered. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

Should I try DIY first?

That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, always. Each job is guaranteed for twelve months.

Do you seal gaps around fire door frames?

Yes. The joint between frame and wall is sealed with a fire-rated sealant. The door leaf and its hardware need a door specialist.

Can you tell me which gaps need fire stopping?

No. Your fire risk assessor, designer or building control decides that. Our job is applying the sealant to their specification.

Will there be a smell?

That depends on the sealant. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little, and any smell fades as they cure.

What information do you need?

Only a few details: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. After that, simply drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Fire rated sealant in Stevenston: local notes

If you run a hotel, guest house or holiday let in a coastal place like Stevenston, heavy use in the busy months is hard on washroom and kitchen sealant, and any building work there should leave fire-rated joints made good. In Scotland, building work comes under the Building (Scotland) Regulations and their technical handbooks. We install fire-rated sealant to the product’s tested details; we don’t certify buildings or carry out fire risk assessments.

If you look after a building such as Glencairn Primary School, fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.

For most jobs that takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access and we leave things clean and tidy.
