Window mastic in Babbs Green, done properly
Colour matters on a frame. We can seal in white, brown, anthracite grey, black or clear, so the line suits the frame instead of standing out. If you’re dealing with black, perished sealant on frames and water coming in at the bottom corners of a door, we can help, on aluminium frames, window sills and composite doors alike.
In a village or hamlet like Babbs Green, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Older buildings like these do not always suit modern silicone, so the sealant has to be chosen to suit the building.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee in Babbs Green and across Hertfordshire.

What we do, step by step
All our tools and materials come with us in the van. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take a few hours for a handful of frames, longer for a whole house. In a small place like Babbs Green, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First, we confirm safe access to each frame.
- All the failed sealant is cut away, along with any loose debris.
- Frame and wall are cleaned and must be dry before sealing, and primed where the sealant calls for it.
- Deep voids are backed, then the sealant is gunned in.
- We tool the joint so water runs off, then clear up.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Move anything stored near the joints

Babbs Green homes and the weather
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind. With historic houses such as Much Hadham Palace (about 3.2 miles north-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Babbs Green as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older timber frames in brick or stone need a different approach from a modern uPVC window.
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of the Holy Trinity, frames set in older brick or stone need a sealant that suits the wall as well as the frame. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Wareside Church of England Primary School, the mastic around its windows and doors needs looking after like any other building’s. If you let a flat or house near Ware station, cracked frame mastic tends to show up as a draught or damp complaint, so it’s worth checking between lets.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.

Different surfaces, different methods
Window sills
Stone and concrete sills have their own joints, including the one between the sill and the frame above. We seal those with a sealant suited to masonry.
Timber windows & doors
Where timber has rotted at the joint, it needs repairing first. We’ll point out any rot we find, as that’s a job for a joiner.
Landlord and commercial work in Babbs Green
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we will give you a quote.
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
What happens if it’s left?
Failed mastic isn’t a reason to replace sound windows. Where the frames are sound, new mastic normally deals with draughts and leaks at the edges. If we find failed glass units or worn seals, we’ll tell you. In a small place like Babbs Green, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.
Why Babbs Green customers choose us
- One-year guarantee on every job
- More than 20 years in sealant work
