How we handle fire rated sealant in Whiteface
In flats, HMOs, offices and schools, fire stopping is often disturbed by later work. 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. Typical jobs include open gaps behind door architraves and ordinary sealant used where a fire-rated product was needed, on linear gaps, plasterboard & masonry and door frames.
Commercial work around smaller Scottish places tends to mean hotels, guest houses, schools and halls rather than offices. All of them have washrooms, kitchens and fire-rated joints that need looking after.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, whatever its size.

How the visit works
There’s no need to move everything out, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the job takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building for a typical job. Around Whiteface, distance and access matter more than parking. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work.
- Access to each area is agreed so the work can run in order.
- We take out any damaged or unsuitable sealant.
- Dust and loose debris are cleaned from each gap.
- We apply and tool the sealant to the product’s tested detail.
- We record what was done and flag anything that needs a different system.
How to prepare
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Should I try it myself first?
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.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
What sealant work can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Sign-off of the building, which sits with building control or your assessor
- Large holes that need a different fire-stopping system
- A wall that is not a fire-resisting element to begin with
If in doubt, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will say what we think before you book.

Common questions in Whiteface
Is Whiteface within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Is Whiteface in your area for fire rated sealant?
Yes, Whiteface is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.
Can you work in occupied buildings?
Yes. Occupied flats, HMOs, offices and schools are all fine, with access planned around residents or staff. Out-of-hours work can be arranged.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, and we never do. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
Do you do fire sealant around door frames?
Yes, if the gap is within the product’s tested range. Our work is the gap around the frame and we’ll tell you if we spot problems with the door.
What’s the difference between intumescent and fire-rated sealant?
Intumescent means it swells when heated to help seal the gap. Intumescent sealants are one kind of fire-rated sealant; the right one depends on the gap and what passes through it.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We’re an ARBOMaster approved applicator, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.
Do you carry out fire risk assessments?
No. Your fire risk assessor, designer or building control decides that. We apply fire-rated sealant to the requirements they set.
Aftercare tips
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Photograph sealed gaps before they’re covered up
- Don’t paint over fire sealant until it has cured
- Plan fire stopping into any work that goes through walls or floors
- Report cracked or damaged seals as soon as you notice them
Do not add foam, filler or ordinary sealant over a fire seal. If it needs repair, use the same type of product. We can tell you which product we used.
Leave a fire-stopping gap open and smoke can move through the building much more easily. Sealing it early is a simple step to take.
Surface by surface
Linear gaps
A linear joint may need to allow for movement as well as fire. The product and depth are chosen to suit both.
Service penetrations
Service penetrations are where new gaps often appear. Old or unsuitable filler comes out before the right sealant goes in.
What affects the cost of fire rated sealant
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- The product the joint needs
- How easy the joints are to reach
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
We don’t show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote.
