Quoting for work in Trinafour
To price the job, we consider:
- Joint width, depth and condition
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- Travel to remote or island sites
- Any access equipment needed
No two sites price the same: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.
Details that help us quote
To price the job accurately, we need a clear picture of the site. Send us:
- Specification clauses that apply
- When you need the work done
- The site address and postcode
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints and a fixed quote comes back to you. Where a site visit makes more sense, we will arrange one.
Fire stopping in Trinafour, done properly
Our applicators are CSCS-carded, and we are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member. We don’t hold a third-party fire-stopping installer certificate and we’d rather say that up front. We install the specified fire-rated sealant to its tested detail, and our workmanship carries a 12-month guarantee. Most enquiries involve seals disturbed by maintenance and left open and unsealed joints where partitions meet the slab, across joints between fire-resisting walls and floors, linear gaps at wall heads and pipe penetrations. Most enquiries from Trinafour start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
Hotels and care homes around smaller places like Trinafour 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.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work. 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.

What we can’t put right
Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we are upfront when that’s the case. These need a different solution:
- Issuing fire ratings or certificates for seals
- Reviewing a building’s overall fire safety
- Gaps in walls that were never built as compartment walls
If in doubt, call the office on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Pipe penetrations
- Small duct penetrations where the tested detail allows
- Joints between fire-resisting walls and floors
- Linear gaps at wall heads
- Cable penetrations
- Service gaps in risers
What the job involves on each surface
Plastic pipes
Plastic pipes soften and collapse in a fire. Small sizes are sometimes covered by an intumescent sealant detail, but many need a collar or wrap. We confirm material and size first and tell you if sealant isn’t the right product.
Metal pipes
Sealant details often cover copper and steel pipework. The tested detail sets the pipe size range, gap, depth and whether insulation can stay on.
What happens if it’s left?
The longer openings stay, the more there tend to be: every new cable or pipe adds another. Keeping on top of it after each round of works keeps the job small. For buildings near Trinafour, dealing with all the failing joints at once saves return trips. Photos of each area help us quote the whole job.
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.

Our process
Our CSCS-carded applicators arrive with the sealants, primers and backing rod the job calls for. Joint faces are cleaned back to sound, dry surfaces, the manufacturer’s primer is applied where it’s called for, and each bead is tooled to a neat concave finish. Jobs near Trinafour are often grouped with others in the same area. Tell us how flexible your dates are.
- 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.
- Foam, ordinary sealant and debris come out first.
- Backing and fire-rated sealant are installed to the detail and tooled.
- We tell you about openings that need a different product.
Before we start on site
- Flag any permit to work we will need
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work

Common questions from Trinafour clients
Is a smaller place like Trinafour outside your area?
No. Places such as Trinafour are covered as much as the big towns. We cover the whole of Scotland. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
How do Scotland’s building standards affect fire-rated sealant in Trinafour?
Scotland’s non-domestic Technical Handbook covers it in clause 2.1.14: penetrations keep at least the element’s fire resistance duration, with products tested for their end use. The detail is set by the designer and goes through the warrant process; we install the specified product to its tested detail.
How long will the new sealant last?
There isn’t a single answer, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.
Can weather delay the job?
It can, when the joints are outside. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.
How do we ask for a quote?
You can use the quote form on this site; alternatively, phone 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos. Include photos or drawings if you have them.
Is colour matching possible?
In many cases, yes. Many products come in a range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or surrounding finishes is often possible. We confirm what’s available for the specified product when we quote.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, including public liability cover.
