The second direction in which we develop our company is providing a full range of services, including high quality finishing works, repairs and renovations required by clients. The main types of activities in which we have specialized include:

Construction
We have built a strong reputation in the residential construction market. For over 70 years, we’ve leveraged the power of science to deliver industry-leading insulation, air sealing and weatherization products. Today, we continue to innovate new solutions for building comfortable, energy-efficient homes.

Owners and occupants want more out of their schools, businesses, homes and offices than ever before. Modern buildings are expected to be energy efficient, comfortable, durable and sustainable throughout the life of the structure. Architects and contractors are choosing our high-performing building envelope solutions to construct buildings that meet and exceed expectations.

• Completion works

Finishing work is the concluding stage of construction; in many cases, the overall quality of a building or structure being put into service depends on the quality of its execution. The main types of finishing work include facing, plastering, flooring (and parquetry), painting, wallpapering, and glazing.

In modern construction practice for residential, public, and industrial buildings, the technology of finishing work has changed substantially. Increasingly widespread use is being made of large prefabricated units, structures, and parts that are delivered to the construction site in final finished form (for example, wall panels and roof slabs, sanitary facilities, and window and door units). This substantially reduces the postassembly finishing work. Industry has mastered production of a number of effective finishing materials that make it possible to eliminate the most laborious and time-consuming processes (the “wet” processes) and to improve the quality of the finish (sheets of thistle board, facing slabs, plastic shingles, and water-resistant wallpaper).

Finishing work is carried out at construction sites by means of various types of mechanized equipment (movable plastering and painting equipment, units for installing floors made of polymeric materials, puttying apparatus, polishing machines, smoothing machines, paint sprayers, and vibration pumps) that substantially facilitate and accelerate the processes of finishing buildings and reduce the number of operations. However, finishing work is still very labor-intensive, and for residential construction it accounts for up to 35 percent of all labor expenditures in construction and assembly operations.

• Interiors

Management of a major corporate interiors program requires seasoned professionals who understand your objectives, cost, quality and time constraints. As an experienced general contractor with an exceptional corporate interiors track record we can ensure that:

• The facilities represent the highest quality achievable within the established budget.
• Your program is characterized by the most cost-effective combination of materials and methods, considering both initial investment and life-cycle costs.
• The facilities are ready for occupancy on schedule.
• Operations are maintained without disruption throughout the duration of the program.
• Preservation & Modernization

Construction preservation and restoration present unique challenges and are often more complex than new construction. Accurate as-built documents seldom exist in historic structures, older materials may currently be banned from use and new codes may require changes. In order to mitigate unwelcome surprises and keep a project moving smoothly, Morley has developed a thorough methodology for the modernization of older buildings.

The experience gained in more than six decades of providing construction services is invaluable when making early assessments on complex projects. Morley has developed techniques for minimum tenant impact when upgrading occupied buildings. We offer our broad knowledge of historic buildings of all types and our expertise of innovative construction solutions.
