About our fire stopping in Rattray
On a fit-out or refurbishment, we follow the services contractors floor by floor. We work from your penetration schedule or marked-up drawings. Tell us what records you need and we’ll confirm with the quote. If you have fire-rated sealant that has cracked or shrunk back and snag lists that include open service penetrations, we can put it right. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Rattray from the first photographs to the final walk-round, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
Around smaller places such as Rattray, compartment walls and floors tend to be in schools, hotels, care homes and community buildings. Those penetrations are closed with the product the specification names, built up as tested.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

For managing agents and facilities managers
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.
For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor, on new build and refurbishment alike. We work to your programme, your specification and your site rules, with CSCS-carded applicators on site.
Rattray: questions and answers
Will you take on work at estates like Welton Industrial Estate, close to Rattray?
Yes, sites like Welton Industrial Estate are within our area, along with the rest of Rattray. To start, just ring 01277 525 020 or use the quote form with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Can you seal penetrations in a hotel in Rattray after a refit?
Yes, where the specification calls for fire-rated sealant. We match the product to the wall or floor and the services, and say if something other than sealant is needed.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Let us know which documents the site needs, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we will confirm them with the quote.
Are your applicators CSCS-carded?
Yes. If you need card details for site access, let us know and we’ll send them with the quote.
Can you work while the building is occupied?
In most cases, yes. We phase the work so most of the building stays in use.
What do you charge?
Every job gets its own fixed quote. For yours, call the office on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form with a description of the work.
What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?
Asbestos is possible in some older mastics, particularly in buildings from before 2000. Before we disturb old sealant in an older building, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey, and work stops until any suspect material has been tested. Removing asbestos is a job for asbestos specialists, not us.
General trades versus a specialist
Paperwork matters too. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and we will confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
Aftercare for building managers
For the best life from the joints:
- Treat an open penetration as a priority repair
- Leave fire sealant to cure fully before covering it
- Look above ceilings when tiles are lifted for other jobs
- Arrange inspection before areas are covered up
New services after handover are a common way fire stopping gets breached. Building it into each contractor’s sign-off keeps the walls intact.
Make reporting new openings part of every permit to work in service areas. It costs little and catches breaches early.
Leave it or put it right?
An open or wrongly sealed service penetration lets fire and smoke reach the next compartment much sooner than the building was designed for. While the openings can be reached, sealing them is normally straightforward. Left until ceilings are closed or a tenant moves in, the same work costs more access and more disruption. Buildings that aren’t in daily use, such as halls and seasonal premises, may let water in unnoticed, so a failed joint has time to cause damage. Resealing early avoids that.
Cost follows what’s involved: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a quote.

On site: what to expect
Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. We sign and contain the area we’re in, keep walkways clear and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. Tell us who will meet us and how to get in at your building near Rattray. That goes into the plan alongside the quote.
- We start with your penetration schedule, drawings or specification.
- Access, permits and the order of areas are agreed with the site team.
- Each opening is checked for wall or floor type, service, gap and depth.

- We tell you about openings that need a different product.

Where services cross fire walls in Rattray
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 products tested for that end use. Where fire-rated sealant is specified, that’s what we install, to the tested detail. Several hotels sit less than 2 miles from Rattray. A hotel refit often runs new services through compartment walls between bedrooms and corridors, and each opening needs the specified seal.
Halls and meeting rooms at places like Parish Church sometimes gain new services, and any compartment wall crossed needs the specified seal. At a healthcare site like Blairgowrie Community Hospital (0.7 miles south-west of Rattray), new services through compartment walls are a constant, and each needs the specified seal. In a school such as Blairgowrie High School, fire-rated sealant goes in around service penetrations where it is specified.
Rattray is about 1 mile north-east of Blairgowrie and Rattray, in Perth and Kinross. Across the PH10 postcode area, the process is the same: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, and the work is guaranteed. Our Perth and Kinross coverage takes in 114 places, from busy centres to rural villages. We also cover Dundee, around 16 miles from Rattray.
