Fire rated sealant in Troon, done properly
A gap around a door frame, a linear joint at the head of a wall and a hole round a pipe are each sealed differently. Measuring the gap and checking what it’s made of comes first, then apply it to the depth its tested detail calls for. If you’re dealing with gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment and cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Commercial jobs in a town like Troon range from shops and offices to schools, hotels and care homes, each with washrooms, kitchens and service openings that need the right sealant.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

How the visit works
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are and we leave things clean and tidy. For a job in Troon, tell us where the work is, how to get in and where to park. Outdoor jobs need a dry day, so they can move if the weather turns.
- We begin by agreeing the list of gaps from your assessor’s or designer’s requirements.
- We measure every gap and note what it’s in and what passes through.
- Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out and the faces cleaned.
- The specified fire-rated sealant goes in over any backing its detail requires.
- Every location is recorded with the product used.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

FAQs for Troon
Do you work in hotels near Troon?
Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. Rooms can be done a few at a time, so the building stays open.
Do Scottish building rules affect fire-rated sealant work in Troon?
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 do fire risk assessments; your assessor or building control can tell you what’s required.
Do you work in Troon?
Yes, we do. Troon is part of the area we cover.
Does someone need to be in?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you don’t need to watch us work.
What’s the difference between intumescent and fire-rated sealant?
An intumescent material expands when it’s heated. Intumescent sealants are a type of fire-rated sealant and which one is used depends on the job.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Only a few details: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. Then send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before applying anything new.
Can ordinary silicone be used in a fire-stopping gap?
No. Where a fire-rated seal is needed, it has to be a product tested for that use.
Should I try it myself first?
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Keeping the joints in good condition
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- File the fire-stopping record where your assessor can find it
- Don’t fill fire-stopping gaps with ordinary foam or silicone
- Take photos of fire stopping before ceilings or boxing go back
- Look in service cupboards and ceiling voids from time to time
File the record of locations and products with your fire safety paperwork. It helps whoever checks the building next.
Any job that breaks through a wall or ceiling should include resealing. Catching it then saves a separate visit later.
Honest limits
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we will tell you before work begins. Sealant won’t put right:
- Construction that doesn’t provide fire resistance on its own
- Deciding what fire stopping a building needs
- Doors that are not fire doors in the first place
If you are not sure, just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you a straight answer.
