velux window leaking - glazed unit seals degraded?
The velux windows GGL-3 028FIC82 (in my garden office appear to be leaking. The frames are fine but the external ( black rubber/plastic) seals around the glaxed unit are degrading. New glazed units can be obtained from Velux (code IPL4100059C ) How easy are these to fit? or is there a way of replacing the seals? ie a type of putty?
The loft shop recommended getting new windows but I can't afford this at present and it seems a bit excessive. Do I need a glazier or a roofer!!? Twickenham area. If anyone out there can advise I will be very grateful.
The seals on my velux windows must be broken as there is condensation in between the double glazing. Can I repair this myself?
