Fire stopping in Logierait, done properly
Where pipes, cables and other services cross a compartment wall or floor, the opening around them has to be closed so fire and smoke can’t move between compartments. Our part is installing fire-rated and intumescent sealant at those openings and along linear gaps, where the specification calls for it. We work to the product’s tested detail for every seal, not a rule of thumb. If you’re dealing with head-of-wall gaps with no fire seal and fire sealant pulled out of the opening, we can put it right, whatever the surface. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: on jobs in Logierait, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
In smaller Scottish places like Logierait, buildings with fire-resisting walls typically include schools, care homes, hotels and health centres. Where services pass through, specified fire-rated sealant is installed following the manufacturer’s guidance for that wall or floor.
Work we carry out comes with a 12-month guarantee. Should something we installed fail, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we’ll come back to it.

Building owners, agents and FMs in Logierait
If you look after buildings for someone else, you need clear quotes and clear reporting. You get a fixed quote, an agreed scope and a walk round at the end.
Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. We phase the work so people keep access, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
Questions we’re asked in Logierait
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Pitlochry Community Hospital?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Is Logierait off your patch?
No. Places such as Logierait are covered as much as the big towns. We cover the whole of Scotland. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Is sealant suitable for all service openings?
No. Each fire-rated sealant is tested for particular services, gap sizes and substrates. If an opening falls outside, it needs another solution.
Can the sealant be colour-matched?
In many cases, yes. Sealants are made in a wide range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or nearby finishes is commonly requested. We confirm what’s available for the specified product when we quote.
How long do sealant joints last?
There’s no fixed lifespan: movement, exposure, cleaning, traffic and the product all play a part. Treat them as maintenance items and inspect them regularly.
Do you need to see the site first?
It depends on the job. Simple work can often be priced from photographs, while larger or less clear jobs get a site visit first.
Do you design or specify fire stopping?
No, we don’t design fire stopping. Once you have a specification, we can price and install the sealant elements of it and point out anything needing another product.

Compartments and services around Logierait
Scottish guidance (non-domestic Technical Handbook, clause 2.1.14) asks that penetrations match at least the fire resistance period of the element they pass through, with proprietary products, intumescent ones included, tested for their end use. Where fire-rated sealant is specified, that’s what we install, to the tested detail.
In a building such as Logierait Parish Church, any service penetration through a fire-resisting wall should be sealed to the specified detail. On a hospital site such as Pitlochry Community Hospital, 4.3 miles to the north-west of Logierait, fire-rated sealant goes in where the specification calls for it, with the work planned around the estates team’s permits.
Logierait is about 14 miles west of Blairgowrie and Rattray, in Perth and Kinross.

We also cover Dundee, around 29 miles from Logierait.

- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
We don’t publish prices, since every building and every scope is different. Call for a quote and we’ll price your job on its own details.
Details that help us quote
It doesn’t need to be a full survey. A few details are enough to get going:
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- Access details, including height
- Your programme or deadline
- The postcode of the building

Signs you need fire stopping in Logierait
Mixing products or improvising a detail breaks the link with the test evidence. Gaps beyond the tested size, shallow sealant, no backing where it was needed, or products from different systems mixed together are what we find most often.
Common reasons buildings call us in:
- Openings left by services added after handover
- Non-fire-rated filler around services
- Old intumescent sealant that has split away
- Openings found when ceilings come down for a refit
Hotels like Ballinluig Hotel, 0.6 miles to the north-east of Logierait, are refurbished in phases, and each phase can open up compartment walls.
Questions to ask before you book
- Who will actually carry out the work
- Will RAMS and insurance details be available?
- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
What happens if it’s left?
It is cheaper to seal service penetrations as each services package finishes than to come back for them later. Openings are visible, access is open and nothing has to be taken down and each detail can be checked as we go. For buildings near Logierait, dealing with all the failing joints at once saves return trips. Photos of each area help us quote the whole job.
The work involved drives the cost: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a quote and we’ll explain how it’s made up.

Our process
When we get to site, we sign in, go through any site induction and check how permits are handled. Everything around the joints gets protected before anything is cut or cleaned, and the work normally takes a single visit for a short list of penetrations, or a phased programme for a whole building. For work around Logierait, we aim for one trip, which is why we ask for photos and a full list first. Outside work also needs a suitable weather window.
- We ask for the product and detail your designer has specified.
- We sort the openings by the detail each one needs.
- Old or wrong materials are cut out.
- Mineral wool or other backing is fitted where required.
- We gun the sealant in to the specified depth around each service and tool it.
- We walk the completed areas with you and confirm the records agreed at quote stage.
Preparing the site
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
- Warn occupants and staff about the work

What the job involves on each surface
Cables and cable bundles
Data cabling added after handover is a regular cause of open service penetrations. Openings around new cables are resealed to the detail.
Small ducts
Small ductwork can sometimes be sealed with sealant where the tested detail includes it. Larger or fire-rated ductwork typically needs a different solution set by the designer.
