Questions from Marley
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Snowdown station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Marley?
Yes. Marley is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
How long should I leave it?
That depends on the sealant used, so please follow the time we give you when we finish.
Do you have sealant for grey or black windows?
Yes. We can use white, brown, anthracite grey, black or clear.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old sealant, and it traps any mould or water underneath. It all has to come out first.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes. Our 12-month guarantee covers every job, inside or out.
Are you insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured.
Do you work on first-floor windows?
Yes, in most cases. Access is planned before work begins, so mention the height and anything in the way.
Window mastic in Marley
Around Marley we seal all kinds of frames: from uPVC casements to timber and aluminium, plus patio doors, French doors and sills. The sealant is chosen to suit the frame material and the wall. If you are dealing with whistling draughts around closed windows and water coming in at the bottom corners of a door, we can help.
In a village or hamlet like Marley, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Older buildings like these do not always suit modern silicone, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee.

When to call us in Marley
Sills take more water than any other part of a window, and the ends of the sill, where it meets the wall, are where it gets in. When that sealant fails, water gets into the wall or under the frame.
The most common problems we see are:
- Cracked sealant at the sill ends
- Mastic that has split away from the wall
- Gaps between the frame and the inside reveal
- Black, perished sealant on frames
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Giles, the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

How to look after the new joints
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep paint and stain on wooden frames in good order
- Use gentle cleaners on frames and sealant
- Look round the frames every year or so
- Avoid harsh chemicals near the mastic
Check the drainage slots in the frames are not blocked, so rain drains out rather than building up at the sealant.
Wet, windy weather is when failed mastic shows itself, but resealing works best in dry conditions. Sorting cracked mastic early means the joint is sound before the bad weather.
When it isn’t the sealant
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Rotten timber, which needs a joiner first
- Penetrating damp from a failed cavity tray or render
- Condensation trapped between the panes
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will say what we think.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Marley
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
Can I do it myself?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Surface by surface
Patio & French doors
The joints around patio doors run a long way, top, sides and threshold. The threshold and the bottom corners take the most water, so we pay close attention there.
Aluminium frames
Aluminium needs a sealant that bonds to coated metal and we avoid acetoxy silicones, which can react with some metals. Neutral-cure sealant is the safe choice.
What we do, step by step
Once we’re on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take most of a day for a typical house, less for a few frames. For a village or hamlet like Marley, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- Each frame is looked over and we agree which ones need resealing.
- We remove the old mastic and clean the frame edge and wall.
- Deep gaps get closed-cell backing rod to set the depth.
- The new sealant goes on in white, brown, anthracite grey, black or clear to suit.
- Every joint is tooled smooth and checked before we leave.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

Window mastic in Marley: local notes
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. Historic houses like Goodnestone Park (about 4.7 miles north-east) are a reminder that the area around Marley has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older frames set in brick or stone need a sealant that suits them, and sometimes that is traditional sand mastic.
Schools such as Barham Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. Letting a property close to Snowdown station? Then sound mastic around windows and doors keeps out the draughts and damp that tenants notice first.
