How we handle fire rated sealant in Trumpethill

If you share the list, we can quote for the gaps that need fire-rated sealant. Common call-outs are for gaps around pipes and cables through fire-resisting walls and gaps filled with a product that isn’t fire-rated, on linear gaps, pipe & cable gaps and flats & HMOs.

The process
When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building. Around Trumpethill, distance and access matter more than parking. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work.
- First we work through your list or survey, measuring each gap and checking what it’s formed in.
- Old or unsuitable sealant is cut out and the gap 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.
- Finally, we list where we worked and what we used, for your records.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Mention any parking rules near the property

Advice
Different surfaces, different methods
Door frames
We deal with the gap around the frame, not the door. Doors, seals and closers are for a door specialist.
Masonry and concrete
Core-drilled and broken-out holes in concrete are often irregular. We check the gap size around the service to make sure it suits the product.
What we’re called out for in Trumpethill
Buildings are refitted and reconfigured over the years. Conversions to flats and HMOs, and office refits, create new walls and new routes for services, with gaps to match.
Look out for these signs:
- Unsealed gaps around fire door frames
- Linear gaps at the head of walls
- Fire seals that have cracked with movement
- Unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall
For landlords with property near Gourock station, fire-rated sealant around pipes and cables through walls and floors needs making good whenever new services go through.

Questions from Trumpethill
Will you come out to Trumpethill?
Yes, we do. We work across all of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do Scottish building rules affect fire-rated sealant work in Trumpethill?
Scotland has its own building regulations, the Building (Scotland) Regulations, with their own 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.
Will there be a smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, which fades as it sets. Opening a window helps.
Can I do it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, we can. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. We cover Trumpethill and the rest of Inverclyde.
Do you provide details of the products used?
Yes. When the job is done, we give you the locations and products. Tell us if your assessor needs it in a particular format.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we are part of it.

Fire rated sealant around Trumpethill
If you run a hotel, guest house or holiday let in a coastal place like Trumpethill, busy months put washrooms and kitchens under pressure, so it’s worth checking the sealant before the busiest weeks. 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, though we do not certify buildings or do fire risk assessments.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Gourock High School, service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.

- The old material and how stubborn it is
- The number of rooms or windows
- The type of sealant required
- How easy the joints are to reach
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

Why deal with it now?
Fire-rated sealants need more care than everyday sealant. Depth, backing and surface preparation all affect how a seal performs, so we follow the maker’s details on every gap. In an older home around Trumpethill, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster.
We do not show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote.

Aftercare tips
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Ask every contractor to reseal any fire stopping they disturb
- Take pictures of fire stopping before ceilings or boxing go back
- Report cracked or damaged seals as soon as you notice them
- Do not paint over fire sealant until it has cured
Don’t add foam, filler or ordinary sealant over a fire seal. If it needs repair, use the same type of product. Ask us if you are not sure which product was used.
If a fire risk assessment has flagged a gap, do not leave it for the next one. Get it sealed and recorded so you can show it was dealt with.
