DIY versus a professional finish
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.

Fire rated sealant around Whitsbury
In England, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires a fire risk assessment for workplaces and for the common parts of blocks of flats, and gaps around services are often picked up there. We work to the specification you’re given, installing the product to its tested details.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Western Downland Church of England Aided Primary School, gaps opened by contractors for new cabling are a common finding in schools and offices.

What happens on the day
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you. The visit itself generally takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building, depending on the size of the job. For a village or hamlet like Whitsbury, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We start with the survey or action list, checking the size and surfaces of every gap.
- Old or unsuitable sealant is cut out and the gap cleaned.
- Backing or fill is fitted where the product’s tested detail calls for it.
- We apply the fire-rated or intumescent sealant to the specified depth and tool it.
- Finally, we list where we worked and what we used, for your records.
Before we arrive
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Advice
Do you need fire rated sealant in Whitsbury?
Gaps around door frames are easily missed. The architrave hides the gap between frame and wall, so it can be left open when a door is replaced.
The problems people usually mention when they call are:
- Unsealed gaps around fire door frames
- Gaps flagged on a fire risk assessment
- Standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap
- Cracked or shrunken fire-rated sealant
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of St Leonard, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.
Questions to ask before you book
- How long the guarantee is
- When the joint can take water or movement
- Is VAT in the price?
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
How to look after the new joints
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Take photos of fire stopping before ceilings or boxing go back
- Include hidden areas like risers in routine checks
- Tell trades working in the building that fire seals must be put back
- Allow for resealing whenever new services are run
Follow the cure time we give you before decorating over the sealant. Not every fire-rated sealant takes paint.
An open gap isn’t only a fire issue: noise, draughts and even pests can come through too. Dealing with them early helps with all of these.
Questions from Whitsbury
What guarantee comes with fire rated sealant in Whitsbury?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Do you cover Whitsbury for fire rated sealant?
Yes, Whitsbury is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job.
Is intumescent sealant the same as fire-rated sealant?
An intumescent material expands when it’s heated. Many fire-rated sealants work this way, but not all and which one is used depends on the job.
Are you insured?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, with over 20 years’ experience in sealant work.
What fire rating will the seal have?
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.
Is standard sealant good enough for a fire gap?
No. It might close the gap, but it isn’t a fire-rated seal. A tested fire-rated product is needed.
What information do you need?
A short description and the location, with photos by email if possible. We’ll ask anything else we need to know.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and we’ll quote it together.
Leave it or put it right?
Paying for fire stopping that has to be redone is a false economy. Work that doesn’t follow the tested detail may have to come out again once someone inspects it. Around Whitsbury, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. 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.
