About our fire rated sealant in Wellhouse

Filling a fire-stopping gap with standard silicone or caulk does not make it fire-rated. Anything unsuitable comes out first and reseal with a fire-rated product tested for that kind of gap. Typical jobs include unsealed gaps where pipes and cables go through a wall and linear gaps at the head of walls, on linear gaps, door frames and flats & HMOs.

In a smaller place like Wellhouse, commercial jobs are more likely to be a hotel, guest house, school, surgery or community hall than an office block. Each needs sound sealant in its washrooms and kitchens, and fire-rated joints kept in good order.

You get a 12-month guarantee, the same in Wellhouse as everywhere else we work.

Your questions about fire rated sealant in Wellhouse

Are the rules for fire-rated sealant different in Scotland?

Building work in Scotland comes under the Building (Scotland) Regulations and their technical handbooks. Whatever the rules, fire-rated sealant has to be installed to the manufacturer’s tested details, and that is how we fit it. 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.

Is Wellhouse within the area you cover?

Yes, we do. We work across all of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

What does fire rated sealant cost?

It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. To get one, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing and where.

Is there any odour?

Sometimes, a little. It fades as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, always. Each job is guaranteed for twelve months.

Do I have to be there?

That depends on where the joints are. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, and for outside work we’ll agree access with you when we book.

Do you carry out fire risk assessments?

No. We follow the requirements from your assessor, designer or building control and install to the manufacturer’s details.

Can you do several jobs on one visit?

Yes. Just list everything you need.

Why act early in Wellhouse

Fire-rated sealants are less forgiving than ordinary ones. Depth, backing and surface preparation all affect how a seal performs, so we follow the maker’s details on every gap. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.

We don’t show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will talk you through it.

How the job changes by surface

Service penetrations

Wherever a service goes through a fire-resisting wall or floor, there’s a gap around it. The sealant is chosen for what passes through and how wide the gap is.

Flats and HMOs

Converted houses often have gaps around old and new services. We seal the ones on your specification with a tested product and record where they are.

How it works

On the day, we look over the joints with you first. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. The work normally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on how many gaps there are. Outdoor work around Wellhouse depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.

  1. We begin by agreeing the list of gaps from your assessor’s or designer’s requirements.
  2. We measure every gap and note what it’s in and what passes through.
  3. Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out and the gap cleaned.
  4. The specified fire-rated sealant goes in over any backing its detail requires.
  5. We hand over a list of locations and products for your files.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move anything stored near the joints
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

Related advice

DIY versus a professional finish

If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.

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

Landlord and commercial work in Wellhouse

Letting agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements.

Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.

What we are called out for in Wellhouse

Sealant applied too thin, without the backing its detail needs, or onto dust will not perform as it was tested. Rushed fire stopping is common.

People generally contact us when they notice something like this:

  • Unsealed gaps around fire door frames
  • Fire seals that have cracked with movement
  • Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
  • Gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment

For buildings such as Saint Benedict's Church, older buildings that have had new heating or wiring often have service gaps worth checking.

Questions to ask before booking

  • When the joint can take water or movement
  • What happens if the job turns out different
  • What guarantee comes with the work
  • Whether all the old sealant comes out first
