The Problem:
Leaking double glazed window Wimborne, Dorset
Today I was called to Wimborne to look at a problem with a double glazed window, which was leaking. After a torrential downpour rainwater had started flooding in through the window.
The problem became obvious: the window gasket had deteriorated over time and needed replacing. A gasket provides a mechanical seal filling the space between two objects, mostly to prevent leakage between the two objects.
The photo below shows the old gasket and the replacement one.

Help is at hand!
