Σχετικά με την υπηρεσία

Sealant around windows has a hard life in Cyprus. Months of ultraviolet light bake it until it shrinks, cracks and peels away from the wall, while the frame expands and contracts with every hot day and cool night. Rubber gaskets in the frame harden in the same way. Sooner or later, fine dust starts settling on the sill, rain finds its way in during the first winter storm and you can hear the wind through a window that is fully closed.

Resealing is one of the most cost-effective jobs you can do on a home. It keeps the weather out, stops air-conditioned air leaking away and protects plaster and paint from water damage. FixNow connects you with local professionals in places such as Limassol, Lakatamia and Ayia Napa who reseal windows, balcony doors and glazed screens for homes, apartments and holiday lets.

Sealing work included

  • External perimeter sealant: cutting out old, cracked sealant where the frame meets the wall and applying a UV-resistant, flexible product.
  • Internal perimeter sealant: renewing the bead between frame and plaster for a clean finish and an airtight joint.
  • Gasket replacement: swapping hardened rubber seals in sashes and frames for new ones of the correct profile.
  • Brush seals on sliders: replacing worn pile strips that keep dust and insects out of sliding windows.
  • Glazing beads: resealing the joint between glass and frame where water is getting into the frame.
  • Sill junctions: sealing the meeting point of sill, frame and wall, a classic leak point.

Good sealing is all in the preparation

The most common reason resealing fails quickly is new sealant laid over old. It does not bond properly and peels within a season. A professional should remove the old material completely, clean and dry the joint, fill deep gaps with a backer rod so the sealant is the right depth, and then tool a smooth bead that sheds water. Product choice matters too: the sealant must be compatible with aluminium, uPVC, stone and render, and stable in strong sun.

Timing helps as well. Sealants need dry conditions to cure, so late spring and early autumn are ideal times to reseal before the winter rains arrive.

Clues your windows need resealing

  • Visible cracks or gaps: sealant shrinking from the wall or frame.
  • Dust on sills: fine dust building up even with windows shut.
  • Damp patches: marks below or beside windows after rain.
  • Whistling: wind noise around closed windows on gusty days.
  • Black mould: on internal sealant in bathrooms and kitchens.

Συχνές ερωτήσεις

How often should window sealant be replaced?
There is no fixed interval, but in Cyprus, external sealant exposed to direct sun often needs attention sooner than in milder climates. Check your windows every year, ideally before winter. Once the sealant is cracked, hard, discoloured or pulling away from either surface, it is no longer doing its job and should be renewed.
Can new sealant be applied over the old one?
It is not recommended. New sealant does not bond well to old, weathered material and tends to peel off quickly, leaving the gap open again. A professional should cut out the old bead completely, clean off residue, make sure the joint is dry and then apply fresh sealant to clean surfaces.
How long does resealing take and when can windows get wet?
A typical window takes thirty minutes to an hour, depending on how much old sealant must be removed. Most sealants form a skin quickly but need longer to cure fully. Your professional will tell you how long to avoid washing the windows and will try to schedule outside work on dry days.
Is sealing enough to stop a leaking window?
It depends on the cause. If water enters around the frame, resealing usually solves it. If it comes through the window itself, the issue may be blocked drainage holes, worn gaskets or a damaged frame. A professional will check before sealing, and the FixNow chat lets you agree any additional repairs.
