Our process
Where the site stays busy, the work is phased so only one area is out of use at a time. Each section is protected, cleaned back and sealed, then handed back before we move to the next. What matters most for a job in Marden is a clear list of what needs doing. You’ll then get a fixed price for the work.
- A building-by-building inspection lists the failed joints.
- You get a fixed quote, per block or for the whole programme.
- Dates and areas are agreed so occupiers can be told.
- Old mastic is removed and the joint faces prepared.
- New sealant goes in with backing rod and primer where needed.
- We check the finished work and confirm the guarantee.
Getting the site ready
- Arrange parking or a loading space
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
Quotes
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we will price against exactly what is specified. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photographs and a few notes.

Blocks and managed buildings in Marden
Marden lies roughly 34 miles out from central London. Around the capital’s commuter belt, managing agents look after many blocks close to stations and town centres. Marden is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. Outside work still depends on dry joints, and south- and west-facing elevations, which take the most sun and rain, often age first.
If you look after a block within reach of Marden station, less than half a mile to the north of Marden, frame and balcony mastic can be renewed on one programme. Site managers at schools like Marden Primary School can fit frame mastic into the summer works.
Marden is about 7 miles south of Maidstone, in Kent. Anywhere in TN12, the process is the same: details in, fixed quote out, then sealing and a 12-month guarantee. 931 places across Kent fall within our area, Marden among them. There’s a separate page for London, about 34 miles away.

Honest limits
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Leaks through the frame itself rather than the perimeter
- Cracked or crumbling render, brick or stone at the joint edges (we will tell you if so)
- Old mastic suspected of containing asbestos, which must be tested and dealt with by a specialist first
If in doubt, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email us and we will say what we think before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Balcony and threshold joints
- Shopfronts below residential blocks
- External wall and movement joints
- Communal entrances and stairwells
- Window and door perimeters on blocks
- Communal kitchens and washrooms
Common problems we fix in Marden
In communal areas, joints take knocks from bins, bikes, buggies and deliveries, with joints near the floor and around doors suffering most. Regular cleaning wears them further.
These are often picked up first by site or facilities staff:
- Movement joints with sealant missing
- Draughts at frames across a block
- Water getting in round frames after rain
- Communal area joints that look neglected
Trustees of buildings like St Michael and All Angels Church can bring frame and external mastic into a planned maintenance list.

Your questions answered
Do you take on block-wide or estate-wide mastic work in Marden?
Yes. Planned programmes across a building, block or estate are a core part of this service. Send the addresses and photographs and we’ll give a fixed quote.
Do you work for managing agents with blocks near Marden station?
Yes, we work for agents, landlords and housing associations with blocks of every size. Send the address, photos of the elevations and your access arrangements, and we’ll give a fixed quote.
Do you work in Marden?
Yes. We take on work across Marden.
Do you check for asbestos in old sealant?
Some mastics in pre-2000 buildings contain asbestos. We check the asbestos register or survey before disturbing it, and if it’s suspected, work stops until it’s tested.
When can the area be used after sealing?
We’ll confirm how long the chosen product needs to cure, and sign any area that should be left alone.
How long do sealant joints last?
It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Sealant joints are maintenance items, so inspect them regularly.
Can you seal joints high up on a block?
We talk through access for each building when we quote. Tell us the building height and any access already in place, and we’ll tell you how we’d approach it.
After the work
To get the most from the new sealant:
- Share your contractor requirements early
- Prioritise elevations facing the weather
- Share the asbestos register when you send details
- Track which buildings were done and when
Our workmanship is covered for 12 months, so report any failure in that time. Beyond that, routine checks spot the next round of repairs.
One failed perimeter normally means others on the same building are close, so it pays to look at the whole elevation. A planned reseal saves repeated visits.
Different surfaces, different methods
Commercial and mixed-use buildings
Tenants in commercial buildings need to keep trading, so we plan around them.
Planned maintenance
How long mastic lasts depends on exposure, movement and the product used. Inspecting joints regularly keeps programmes on track.
