awning windows leaking
#6
Carey nailed it! that's what the problem is. the contractor was supposed to be here at 1pm to try again to rememdy the problem. he hasn't shown up yet.

danielp: 3 years. the problem has been ongoing from the get go. the contractor has come up with excuse after excuse. aluminum (victor brand windows). no, the water shows up even if the windows are completely shut down and no rain. these are awning windows that were not properly sealed. the windows are not taking on pounding rain and were not directly shot down with a water hose. i used a spray bottle from the outside and shot a stream at the corners. no sooner did the water seep inside. somehow, the water/moisture is sitting on the window box/frame. because it wasn't sealed at all, the water is making its way in.
