Window Repair Services

Rainy Days and Leaky Windows

There’s nothing like spending a rainy day inside your home. That’s why you need Window Repair Services.

Imagine this: a hot cocoa or coffee in one hand, a book in another, perched up in the cozy little nook by your window, hearing the sounds of the pitter-patter of the rain against the glass. Only you notice that your window’s leaking. Before you know it, rainwater streams through the cracked window, drenching you and flooding your living room. Meanwhile, you scramble to find towels, trying to block the rushing water. Unfortunately, it keeps pouring in, leaving you with a mess to clean up!

If your windows have leaks or cracks, you need to fix them ASAP. Here are some preventative methods to help you avoid this scenario.

Weather Stripping

Weather stripping creates airtight barriers on moving window sections. You can choose from a variety of options, including plastic, vinyl, felt, tape, metal, and more. If you can’t decide which one to get, narrow down your options regarding price, visibility, durability, and ease of installation.

Caulk Your Windows

Caulking your windows is a temporary solution that helps you adjust your window seal. You can use a caulking gun that you may have lying around the house or borrow one from your friends or neighbors.

Go through your window carefully and check where the leak is coming from. Use a putty knife or a screwdriver to remove any old caulking or paint. Doing this will prepare the surface and allow you to begin the process effectively.

Ensure the area you’re caulking stays dry. Otherwise, you might accidentally seal in moisture, which can cause your windows to become loose over time. The caulking cartridge should be cut at a 45-degree angle and inserted into the dispenser. Start pushing the trigger to caulk each joint in the frame and between the window and the wall.
