About our construction mastic in Marley

Refurbishment work needs a slightly different approach from new build. Old beads come out completely, as fresh silicone can’t grip old, and on older buildings we ask for the asbestos survey before disturbing anything. New and existing joints then get the same preparation. If you are dealing with existing joints on a refurb that need cutting out and resealing and bath and shower joints scraped during the final clean, we can help, on window and door perimeters, cladding and panel joints and floor and skirting junctions alike. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Marley? We’ve been sealing commercial buildings since 2005, CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.

In the countryside around places like Marley, conversion schemes put new frames into old stone, flint, brick or timber. Those joints need a sealant that suits an uneven, sometimes porous surface, and often a colour chosen for the building.

Guaranteed is the last step of every job. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months, and the quote explains what it covers.

Construction mastic in Marley: the local picture

With the shore within about 3 miles, Marley counts as a coastal location. Facades and window perimeters on coastal schemes take more wind-driven rain, and salt air nearer the shore, so we check the specified product suits the exposure before the first bead. At about 65 miles from central London, Marley is within reach of the capital. Building activity in the commuter belt runs from new flats near stations to business park refurbishments, so mastic packages have to keep pace with busy programmes.

Hospital estates such as Victoria Hospital, 2.3 miles to the south-east of Marley, tend to grow and change in phases, often next to occupied wards, so facade and perimeter sealing has to fit the estates team’s plan. With historic properties like Walmer Castle (3.5 miles south-east of Marley) in the area, refurbishment work often meets old masonry that needs compatible sealants. New units and refits on sites such as Birnham Farm Business Centre, 2.8 miles north-west of Marley, need their panel and perimeter joints sealed to the specification.

Marley is about 3 miles north-west of Deal, in Kent. Across the CT14 postcode area, the process is the same: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, and the work is guaranteed. Our Kent coverage takes in 931 places, from busy centres to rural villages. We also cover London, some 65 miles away.

We take on mastic packages across the CT14 postcode area, whatever the building. Among the streets we cover are Broad Lane and Marley Lane. We also cover Finglesham (1 mile north-east), Hacklinge (1 mile north-east), Northbourne (1 mile south), Ham (1 mile north-west) and Sholden Meadows (1 mile south-east). Further afield, our area takes in Canterbury (12 miles west), Margate (10 miles north), Dover (7 miles south), Folkestone (13 miles south-west), Ramsgate (8 miles north-east) and Broadstairs (10 miles north-east).

Local landmarks in Marley

Locally, jobs take us to sites close to Ham Fen, Sandwich Technology School and The Crown Inn and the streets around them. Marley’s nearest station is Sandwich station, about 2.5 miles north of the centre. Other landmarks nearby include Sandown Castle (2.7 miles east) and Kent Museum of the Moving Image (2.6 miles east). Not far away are Monk's Wall nature reserve.

Cost factors for mastic packages

Each job is priced on its own details. The main factors are:

  • Location, for remote and island sites
  • The product specified
  • How much there is to seal
  • Phasing around occupants

The specified product makes a difference, as does the preparation each joint needs, from cutting out to priming and backing rod. Access, phasing and site rules also count.

What we need to price the job

However big the job, these details speed things up:

  • Any dates the work must fit around
  • The asbestos register, for older buildings
  • Specification clauses that apply
  • What the building is and how it’s used

If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we will price the work to it. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photographs and a few notes.

When it isn’t the sealant

A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we say so rather than covering them up:

  • Damage to finishes by other trades after we’ve sealed
  • Frames fitted out of tolerance
  • Approving fire stopping as compliant

If you are not sure, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Where we work in Marley

  • Internal decorators’ caulk
  • Window and door perimeters
  • Cladding and panel joints
  • Brick and block movement joints
  • Sanitary and kitchen joints
  • Floor and skirting junctions

Why act early in Marley

On a refurbishment, there’s a choice between resealing existing frames and replacing them. If the frame is in good order, cutting out and resealing the perimeter can be all it needs, which is a much smaller cost. We will say so if a frame itself is the problem. Halls, stores and units around places like Marley may not be checked every day, so a failed joint can leak for a while before anyone sees it. Renewing joints in good time avoids the problem.

We don’t publish prices, since every building and every scope is different. Call for a quote and we will price your job on its own details.

Different surfaces, different methods

Internal decorators’ caulk

Where the specification calls for it, acrylic decorators’ caulk goes on non-moving internal gaps before painting. It’s for gaps that stay still and get painted, and we use a flexible sealant where there’s movement.

Fire-rated sealant where specified

Not every penetration suits a sealant. Collars, wraps, batts and boards are specified for other services so we’ll flag where the detail needs something different. Tell us what records you need and we’ll confirm with the quote.

Your questions answered

Is a smaller place like Marley outside your area?

Not at all. Marley is within our area. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.

Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Victoria Hospital?

Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.

Will you come and look before quoting?

That depends on the size and complexity of the job. Straightforward work can often be priced from photos and measurements, and bigger or more complex jobs normally get a visit.

Can staff carry on working while you are here?

Yes, as long as we plan it. We agree a sequence with your contact so just one area at a time is disrupted.

What will the job cost?

It depends on the job: quantities, access, the product and any phasing. Call for a fixed quote.

Will you quote for a small job?

Small jobs are welcome alongside larger packages. Send details for a fixed quote.

Will you stick to the specified products?

Specification first, then the maker’s instructions. Primers, backing and joint depth follow what the manufacturer sets out.

Our process

We bring the products specified for the job, along with primers and backing rod. Joint faces are cleaned back to sound, dry surfaces, the manufacturer’s primer is applied where it’s called for, and the sealant is tooled off neatly. For work around Marley, we aim to finish in one visit, so we ask for photos and rough sizes first. That way the right products come on the day.

  1. Drawings, specification and programme come to us.
  2. We take off quantities and return a fixed quote.
  3. The sequence is agreed with the site manager.
  4. Plots or floors are sealed as they’re handed over.
  5. Every joint is cleaned, set to depth and sealed with the specified product.
  6. Snags are cleared and the package signed off with our 12-month guarantee.

What we need from you

  • Flag any permit to work we will need
  • Send any specification or drawings in advance
