What we’re called out for in Tullynessle
Many open fire-stopping gaps are made after the building is finished. New cables, pipes and data runs go through walls and ceilings and the hole round the new service isn’t always sealed again.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Gaps filled with a product that isn’t fire-rated
- Gaps where walls meet ceilings or slabs
- Unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall
- Cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Tullynessle and Forbes Parish Church, older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking.

Leave it or put it right?
For some gaps, sealant is not the right answer and another system is needed. Big openings, bundles of cables and plastic pipes may need batts, collars or wraps instead. If a gap is not suitable for sealant, we will tell you. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

What the job involves on each surface
Door frames
We deal with the gap around the frame, not the door. Doors, seals and closers are for a door specialist.
Service penetrations
Pipes, cables and ducts passing through fire-resisting walls and floors each leave a gap. The sealant is chosen for what passes through and how wide the gap is.
Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- Fire doors that need new seals, closers or hardware
- Openings too large for sealant, which need batts, boards or another system
- Issuing a fire rating or certificate for a building
Not sure which it is? You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll tell you honestly.

Tullynessle: your questions answered
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.
Will you come out to Tullynessle?
Yes, Tullynessle is covered. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can you tell me which gaps need fire stopping?
No. We follow the requirements from your assessor, designer or building control, and apply each product to its tested details.
Can I use normal mastic around a pipe through a fire wall?
No. Where a fire-rated seal is needed, it has to be a product tested for that use, installed to its details.
Do you provide details of the products used?
Yes. We record the locations we’ve sealed and the products used.
Is it messy?
We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints, and the area is left clean when we finish.
What should I tell you?
Let us know what needs doing and where, with pictures by email if possible. We’ll ask anything else we need to know.
How long does the job take?
A typical job takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
How the visit works
Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we do not rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it normally takes from a few hours to a few days, depending on the number of gaps and the access. Outdoor work around Tullynessle 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.
- We plan the order of work and access, floor by floor or flat by flat.
- Old, damaged or unsuitable sealant is removed.
- Dust and loose debris are cleaned from each gap.
- We apply and tool the sealant to the product’s tested detail.
- Locations and products are written up and any gaps unsuitable for sealant are flagged.
How to prepare
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Can I do it myself?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
