Water leaking around your window or door frame

Why is water coming in around my window when it rains?

Water usually leaks around a window because external sealant has failed or the window gasket has perished.

What causes window and door frame leaks?

Sealant breaks down over time due to movement and weather exposure. Gaskets shrink or split.

Why this problem gets worse if it’s ignored

Water spreads behind plaster and insulation, turning a small gap into wider damp damage.

What damage this can cause

  • Damp patches

  • Mould

  • Timber decay

  • Cold draughts

How we fix leaking windows and doors

We remove failed sealant and carry out proper external sealant replacement or window and door seal replacement where required.

​​​

We fix the cause, not just the visible leak.

Frequently asked questions

Can resealing stop the leak permanently?
If sealant is the cause, proper removal and replacement will stop ingress.
