How the job changes by surface
Flats and HMOs
In flats and HMOs, the walls and floors between homes and common areas need sealing where services pass through. We work through the gaps on your assessment.
Masonry and concrete
Masonry is dusty and porous, so preparation matters. We brush and vacuum the gap and use backing where the detail needs it before the sealant goes in.
Fire rated sealant in Tulloch
Later work by other trades often breaks through fire stopping, especially in flats, HMOs, offices and schools. One new cable or pipe can leave a gap that nobody goes back to seal. Those are the gaps we close, using a tested fire-rated product. If you have fire seals that have cracked with movement and fire stopping disturbed by later work, we can put it right, on door frames, plasterboard & masonry and service penetrations alike.
For a place like Tulloch, the journey and timings are planned in advance, so the job can fit around guests, residents or opening hours where possible.
Our work is backed for twelve months, in Tulloch and everywhere else we cover.

FAQs for Tulloch
How do Scotland’s building regulations apply to fire-rated sealant in Tulloch?
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.
Will you come out to Tulloch?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across all of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Does someone need to be in?
It depends on the job. Inside work needs someone to give us access, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.
Will it make a mess?
No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
What does fire rated sealant cost?
Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. To get one, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with a short description of the job.
Is it worth trying it myself?
Sometimes. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. If it does not work out, we can redo it.
What’s the difference between intumescent and fire-rated sealant?
Intumescent means it swells when heated. It’s one type of fire-rated sealant; which product suits depends on the gap, the substrate and the service.
Can you tell me which gaps need fire stopping?
No, assessment isn’t something we do. When your assessor or designer has set out what’s needed, we’ll quote for the sealant work on it.
What happens on the day
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, protect the area around them, do the work and clear up. It normally takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. For a place like Tulloch, longer drives are planned in advance. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- 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.
- Where the tested detail needs backing or fill, we fit it.
- The sealant goes in to the depth its detail sets, then it’s tooled off.
- Finally, we list where we worked and what we used, for your records.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
How to get a quote
Asking for a quote is easy: tell us what needs doing and where, and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help us understand the job.

Keeping the joints in good condition
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Check risers, ceiling voids and cupboards during building checks
- Include fire stopping when you schedule refits
- Check whether a sealant can be painted before decorating over it
- Flag any open gap you spot round a pipe or cable
Leave the sealant to cure fully before painting near it. Not every fire-rated sealant takes paint.
Any job that breaks through a wall or ceiling should include resealing. Doing it at the time avoids leaving gaps behind.
What sealant work can’t fix
In fairness, some problems need a different trade:
- Construction that does not provide fire resistance on its own
- Big openings where sealant alone isn’t the tested solution
- Doors that aren’t fire doors in the first place
If you are not sure, just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you a straight answer.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Flats & HMOs
- Pipe & cable gaps
- Linear gaps
- Door frames
- Plasterboard & masonry
- Service penetrations
Quotes for fire rated sealant in Tulloch
You’ll get a clear quote before work begins. It takes into account:
- The product the joint needs
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The number of rooms or windows
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask a few questions first.
What to tell us for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. Just tell us:
- The rough size of the job
- The address or postcode of the job
- Whether it has been sealed before
- Whether it’s a home or a business
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is.
What happens if it’s left?
If an assessor has flagged gaps, it makes sense to close them before the next review. Getting them done and written up gives you evidence that the item was dealt with. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you’re unsure, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk for an honest opinion and a quote.
