Fire rated sealant for homes and businesses in Torlundy
We can work through a building room by room or floor by floor, with each location and product recorded. It gives you a list to keep with the building’s fire safety documents. If you’re dealing with old fire sealant that has split or come away and unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall, we can help.
Commercial work around smaller Scottish places tends to mean hotels, guest houses, schools and halls rather than offices. All of them have washrooms, kitchens and fire-rated joints that need looking after.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee.

The process
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, protect the area around them, do the work and tidy away. Most jobs take from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. Outdoor work around Torlundy depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- Access to each area is agreed so the work can run in order.
- We take out any damaged or unsuitable sealant.
- Gaps are cleaned of dust and loose material.
- The fire-rated or intumescent sealant is applied and tooled to the tested detail.
- Locations and products are written up and any gaps unsuitable for sealant are flagged.
How to prepare
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Keeping the joints in good condition
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks
- Photograph sealed gaps before they’re covered up
- Don’t fill fire-stopping gaps with ordinary foam or silicone
- Tell trades working in the building that fire seals must be put back
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.
It’s easiest to seal gaps while they’re few and easy to reach. Over time, more work adds more holes and the job gets bigger.
Honest limits
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Big openings where sealant alone is not the tested solution
- Fire risk assessments, which need a qualified assessor
- Walls or floors that weren’t built to resist fire
If you are not sure, just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Quotes for fire rated sealant in Torlundy
Jobs vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The number and length of the joints
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You’ll know the price before we begin.
What we need to know
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
To get a quote, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the location and a short description of the problem. You’ll have a clear quote before we start.

If you let a flat or house near Banavie station, new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant. Schools such as Lochaber High School are buildings too, and fire-stopping around service openings should be restored whenever new services go in.

What the job involves on each surface
Door frames
Behind most architraves is a gap between frame and wall. Where it’s open, we seal it to the product’s details for that gap size.
Plasterboard walls
In plasterboard walls, the condition of the board edge matters. Loose material is removed so the sealant has a firm edge.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

Are the rules for fire-rated sealant different in Scotland?
Building work in Scotland comes under the Building (Scotland) Regulations and their technical handbooks. Fire-rated sealant has to go in to the product’s tested details, and we follow them. We do not certify buildings or carry out fire risk assessments, so your fire risk assessor or building control will advise on what’s needed.
What’s the difference between intumescent and fire-rated sealant?
Fire-rated is the broad term for sealants tested for fire stopping. Intumescent types expand when heated, and they’re one option among several. The specification and the tested detail decide which is used.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
We are a Crawley-based firm. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit.
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.
Can I do it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.
What should I tell you?
Tell us what needs doing and where, plus pictures if you have them. We will ask anything else we need to know.
