Common Mistakes During Sealing Windows and Doors
- Using the Wrong Sealant: Using non-weatherproof or incorrect sealants leads to poor insulation and water leakage.
- Incomplete Surface Preparation: Failing to clean or dry the surface before sealing prevents proper adhesion.
- Over- or Under-Applying Sealant: Too much or too little sealant can cause gaps or messy finishes, reducing effectiveness.
- Ignoring Gaps and Cracks: Missing small gaps around frames can allow drafts and moisture to seep in.
- Sealing in the Wrong Conditions: Sealing in wet or extremely cold weather can prevent the sealant from curing properly.
- Inconsistent Application: Uneven sealing can create weak spots where air or water can enter.
- Not Testing for Air Leaks: Failing to check for drafts after sealing may leave areas improperly insulated.
- Ignoring Frame Condition: Old, damaged frames may need repairs before sealing for best results.
- Using Temporary Solutions: Relying on caulking or tape as a long-term solution can cause more issues later.
- Skipping Maintenance: Seals need regular inspection and reapplication over time to stay effective.
