About our fire stopping in Luncarty
The test standards are BS EN 1366-3 for penetration seals and BS EN 1366-4 for linear joints, with results classified under BS EN 13501-2. That classification, such as EI 60 or EI 120, belongs to the product in its tested arrangement. So our job is to reproduce that arrangement faithfully. We work on pipe penetrations, cable penetrations and joints between fire-resisting walls and floors, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are open linear gaps along the top of fire-resisting walls and fire-stopping items raised at inspection or handover. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Luncarty it comes down to the same thing: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
Hotels and care homes around smaller places like Luncarty often have services added during refurbishment. A round of checks after M&E work is good practice, and any gaps found are sealed where fire-rated sealant is specified.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

General trades versus a specialist
There’s also the paperwork. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and we’ll confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are easy to get wrong without experience.
Different surfaces, different methods
Small ducts
Some fire-rated sealant details cover small ducts. Bigger ducts and fire-resisting ductwork are normally handled with other products.
Plastic pipes
Waste and drainage pipes through floors are a frequent case. The detail decides whether sealant alone is enough, and we’ll never swap a specified collar for sealant.
Fire stopping around Luncarty: points for this area
Under the Scottish non-domestic Technical Handbook, clause 2.1.14, penetrations should be fire stopped to at least the wall or floor’s fire resistance duration, with proprietary products, intumescent ones included, tested for their end use. Our part is installing the specified fire-rated sealant to its tested detail.
Hospital estates such as Murray Royal Hospital (to the south-east of Luncarty) are divided into fire compartments, and any service penetration through them should be sealed to the specified, tested detail. On estates like North Muirton Industrial Estate, 2.2 miles to the south of Luncarty, the wall between office and warehouse is often fire-resisting, and cables through it need the specified seal. Halls and meeting rooms at places like Redgorton Church sometimes gain new services, and any compartment wall crossed needs the specified seal.

Questions we are asked in Luncarty
Can you work at a site such as North Muirton Industrial Estate, by Luncarty?
Yes, sites like North Muirton Industrial Estate are within our area, along with the rest of Luncarty. To start, just call 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
What do Scotland’s building standards say about service penetrations in Luncarty?
The non-domestic Technical Handbook, clause 2.1.14, expects a penetration to keep at least the wall or floor’s fire resistance period, with proprietary products tested for the use they’re put to. We install what has been specified, to the manufacturer’s tested detail, while design and approval sit with the designer and the verifier.
Do you offer coloured sealant?
Often, 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.
When can the area be used after sealing?
We will confirm how long the chosen product needs to cure, and flag anything to keep off until it has cured.
Do you take on small jobs?
We quote for single jobs as well as large packages and programmes. Photos and a description are enough to start.
Which sealant will you use?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. Without one, the joint decides: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.
What’s the quickest route to a quote?
It works in four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. Step one needs little more than photos and a postcode.
Our process
Site rules come first: sign-in, induction and whatever permit system the building uses. With the paperwork done, the joints are worked through in the order agreed with your site contact, and each area is checked before we leave it. Jobs near Luncarty are often grouped with others in the same area, to make the most of each trip. Tell us how flexible your dates are.
- We read the specification, drawings or penetration schedule you send and raise any questions before we price.
- On site, each opening is checked against the tested detail it is meant to follow.
- Anything that doesn’t belong in the opening, such as expanding foam or general-purpose filler, is removed.
- We fit the backing the detail asks for, to the stated depth.
- Fire-rated or intumescent sealant is gunned in to the specified depth, then tooled.
- If an opening needs something other than sealant, we tell you instead of improvising.
What we need from you
- Flag any permit to work we will need
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
- Warn occupants and staff about the work

Advice
When it isn’t the sealant
Some faults sit outside our scope, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:
- Signing off or certifying a building’s fire stopping
- Gaps in walls that were never built as compartment walls
- Fire doors, dampers or other fire safety equipment
If you’re not sure, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will give you a straight answer.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Pipe penetrations
- Service gaps in risers
- Small duct penetrations where the tested detail allows
- Linear gaps at wall heads
- Joints between fire-resisting walls and floors
- Cable penetrations

Why deal with it now?
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 the right detail can be checked at the time. In Scotland, wind-driven rain finds a failed joint quickly, so it’s worth renewing joints around Luncarty before they leak.
There’s no price list, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. Call for a quote and we’ll price your job on its own details.
