What affects the price in Marley
Each job is priced on its own details. The main factors are:
- The product specified
- How much there is to seal
- Phasing around occupants
- How much existing material needs removing
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits, along with the time of year for external work.
Details that help us quote
There’s no need for a formal survey. A few details are enough to get going:
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- Any specification or named product
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- The postcode of the building
We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To start the process, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form.
Construction mastic in Marley, done properly
On refurbishments, the mastic package normally includes cutting out old sealant as well as sealing new work. 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. We work on cladding and panel joints, brick and block movement joints and window and door perimeters, and the failures we are asked to look at most are perimeter gaps outside the sealant’s range and early adhesion failures on new external joints. Whoever orders the work in Marley, the brief is usually the same: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
Sites around smaller places like Marley can be a fair drive from suppliers, so we come with everything the package needs. Send drawings or photos and the programme and we’ll quote to suit.
Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

Advice
When to bring in a specialist
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but larger jobs are different: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class, which is what makes a joint last.
Different surfaces, different methods
External facade and movement joints
Movement joints in the facade are sealed with a product suited to the expected movement. Depth is controlled with backing rod so the bead bonds to two sides only.
Fire-rated sealant where specified
Where the specification calls for fire-rated or intumescent sealant around service penetrations or linear gaps, we install it to the manufacturer’s tested detail. Fire stopping design belongs to the designer and building control; we work to the specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance.
Contractors’ notes for Marley
Marley is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. Even so, frost and condensation on steel and glass are common on winter mornings, so the external programme keeps a little slack. At about 57 miles from central London, Marley is within reach of the capital. Construction around the commuter belt mixes station-side flats with refurbished offices and units, and main contractors there need mastic that keeps to the programme.
New units and refits on sites such as Barham Business Park (to the south of Marley) need their panel and perimeter joints sealed to the specification. Historic houses such as Goodnestone Park (to the north-east of Marley) are a reminder of the older buildings in the wider area, where sealing against old stone, brick or timber needs compatible products. Building work at universities like University for the Creative Arts (to the north of Marley) is often timed for the summer, mastic included.
Marley is about 5 miles south-east of Canterbury, in Kent. Our applicators travel to Marley for work on mastic packages, handled exactly as we handle every other area. Our Kent coverage takes in 931 places. For work in that direction, see our London page.

Marley: questions and answers
Is Barham Business Park, near Marley, within your area?
Yes, sites like Barham Business Park are within our area, along with the rest of Marley. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Kent and Canterbury Hospital?
Yes, hospitals are one of the sectors we cover. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote.
Which sealant will you use?
The specification comes first, if there is one. Without one, the joint decides: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to, and we raise anything unclear before work begins.
Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?
Our applicators are CSCS-carded, and we hold CHAS accreditation and Constructionline membership. Tell us what site paperwork you need and we’ll confirm with the quote.
How long will the new sealant 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.
What we can’t put right
Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. It won’t fix:
- Deciding which fire-stopping product a penetration needs
- Faulty frames rather than failed sealant
- Specifying the product where the designer hasn’t
If you are not sure, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we’ll give you a straight answer.
