Window Sealant: Prevent Leaks When It Rains

Breaking a 110-day dry streak, per meteorologists, it is raining in the valley. According to the National Weather Service, 0.35-inches of rainfall was measured at Sky Harbor earlier this morning, and scattered rain is in the afternoon’s forecast. Today’s rain emphasizes the importance of having window sealant installed around your home or office building’s windows, ensuring they are adequately sealed.

Why Properly Sealed Windows is Essential

weatherproofing sealantWhile rain is a welcome sight – especially as it is expected to bring cooler temperatures to the valley – there is the potential for unwanted problems when it leaks through gaps around the windows of your home or office.

That may include water damage to the windowsills, or in the case of heavy rain, surfaces near the windows. Unsightly water stains can also develop. One of the most common reasons for leaks is missing or aging caulking.

The best method for sealing leaks, both water and air, is to contact a professional about window sealant. Sealants have excellent adhesion, and once cured, work to prevent costly damage by repelling water and moisture.

The Benefits of Window Sealant

Besides preventing water damage, window sealant offers many additional advantages, including improving energy efficiency and reducing sound transmission by sealing air leaks. Sealing air leaks also works to regulate temperatures, promote a more comfortable living and working environment, and save you money on heating and cooling costs.
