Fire rated sealant for Udny Green homes and businesses

Fire rated sealant in Udny Green

We often work from an action list drawn up by a fire risk assessor. If you share the list, we can quote for the gaps that need fire-rated sealant. We work on linear gaps, flats & HMOs and plasterboard & masonry, and common reasons people get in touch are unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall and gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment.

In a smaller place like Udny Green, commercial jobs are more likely to be a hotel, guest house, school, surgery or community hall than an office block. All of them have washrooms, kitchens and fire-rated joints that need looking after.

Our work is backed for twelve months.

Do you need fire rated sealant in Udny Green?

Gaps around door frames are easily missed. The gap between the frame and the wall is hidden behind the architrave, so it’s easy to leave unsealed when doors are changed.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment
  • Fire seals that have cracked with movement
  • New service routes left unsealed after building work
  • Open holes round services passing through fire walls

In and around Udny Green, as anywhere, good fire rated sealant starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Before you book anyone

  • Is the old sealant removed completely?
  • What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
  • Who does the work, and how experienced they are
  • How the surfaces are prepared before sealing

Choosing a sealant specialist

Surface by surface

Plasterboard walls

In plasterboard walls, the condition of the board edge matters. Loose material is removed so the sealant has a firm edge.

Masonry and concrete

Brick, block and concrete walls and floors are sealed with products tested in masonry. The gap is cleaned of dust first so the seal has something sound to bond to.

Keeping the joints in good condition

Aftercare is simple:

  • Do not fill fire-stopping gaps with ordinary foam or silicone
  • Check whether a sealant can be painted before decorating over it
  • Make resealing part of every contractor’s brief
  • Store the list of sealed gaps with your building paperwork

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.

If a fire risk assessment has flagged a gap, do not leave it for the next one. Get it sealed and recorded.

Udny Green questions

Can you do fire rated sealant in Udny Green?

Yes, Udny Green is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.

How do Scotland’s building regulations apply to fire-rated sealant in Udny Green?

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 seal gaps around fire door frames?

Yes. The joint between frame and wall is sealed with a fire-rated sealant. The door leaf and its hardware need a door specialist.

Do you certify the fire stopping?

We do not certify fire stopping or quote ratings. We apply the specified product to the manufacturer’s details and giving you a record of where it went.

Where are you based?

We’re based in Crawley, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.

Can you work in occupied buildings?

Yes. We work in flats, HMOs, schools, offices and other commercial buildings, including occupied ones. We agree access and the order of work with you first.

Do you provide details of the products used?

Yes. You get a list of where we worked and what we used for your files.

How do I get a quote for fire rated sealant in Udny Green?

It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. To get one, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a short description of the job.

How the visit works

Our applicators work methodically: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building, and the area is left clean. In smaller Scottish places, parking is normally less of an issue than access and distance. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints.

  1. Before starting, we go through the specification or action list with you.
  2. Each gap is measured and its substrate and service noted.
  3. Any non-fire-rated filler is removed and the faces cleaned.
  4. The specified fire-rated sealant goes in over any backing its detail requires.
  5. Every location is recorded with the product used.

How to prepare

  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
  • Mention any tricky access
  • Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Advice

Why act early in Udny Green

An unsealed gap lets smoke and fire get round a wall that was built to hold them back. A proper seal lets the wall do its job again, and the work involved is often modest. 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.

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.

What you get with us

  • Tidy, careful work
  • We are fully insured
  • Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas
  • We never seal over old sealant

Fire rated sealant in Udny Green: local notes

Scotland has its own building regulations, the Building (Scotland) Regulations, with technical handbooks. Fire-rated sealant is installed to the manufacturer’s tested details, though we do not certify buildings or do fire risk assessments.

For buildings such as Christ's Kirk Of Udny, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.

What affects the cost of fire rated sealant

Jobs vary more than people expect. The main factors:

  • Any mould that needs treating
  • The number and length of the joints
  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • Whether the work is at height

Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk for an honest opinion and a quote.

What we need to know

To make quoting easier, please include:

  • Where the job is, and your postcode
  • Photos by email, if that’s easy
  • If someone has resealed it before
  • How many joints, rooms or windows are involved

Getting a quote is simple: let us know the job and the location, and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help us understand the job.

Can I do it myself?

Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, 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.
