Hi,

Our house has a corner window in L shape without chajja.Whenever it rains water comes inside .I am planning to
use silicon to seal the gaps.However someone told that it will not lost long.Please let me know if there are any
water proofing adhesives available to seal wooden windows.

Many thanks,
Sudeendra

hi ,sudeendra
The hard fact is that there is no other option than silicon :) longterm solution is to get a Chajja in place with out disturbing the elevation concept.You an look for a glass sleek Chajja so your water seepage point will be one point rather than all around the window .
In silicon u get good once that stay for long time ,generally used in structural glazing works .
