What Causes Windows to Leak?

Several things can cause windows to leak, and poor installation is one of the most common. No matter how beautiful or energy efficient the windows are, if they are not installed properly, they can cause problems for your home. Other common problems include:

Improper sealing: Even the most expensive windows are no good without proper window sealing. Windows are most commonly sealed today with expanding foam, but the material has to be measured and applied accurately. If the installer uses too little foam, there will be air channels between the window and the wall where water can come through.
Missing/broken caulking: Caulk is used to seal air leaks, cracks, and gaps between window frames and is one of the most overlooked causes of window leaks. If your caulking is missing or broken at the window flange and seams, water can build up on the windows.
Poor glass seal: If you see condensation between panes of glass in a window, it means there is a bad seal. In this condition, the windows may look foggy, wet or dirty and will be far less energy efficient than when they were new.
Defective products: Although less common, window leaks can be caused by a manufacturing defect or damage caused to the product during shipping or installation. In most cases, the manufacturer is responsible for replacing the defective windows.

Keep in mind that water that seems to be the result of a leaking window may actually be coming from another source. It’s important to ensure that the source of the leak is not your home’s roof, exterior walls, or upstairs bathroom.

Kudos to all that waterproofed our home during the exterior renovation. Despite being on the beach, with Hurricane Irma’s 130 MPH winds, and many windows and doors which we did not have a chance to cover, no water came in the house! Also, it appears that we suffered no structural damage of any kind. Thanks again for your attention to detail and quality work!

Dave & Brenda Pelizzon

Just a quick note to thanks you guys for building a great house for Debbie and me. We came through Hurricane Irma in great shape. We were reflecting how fortunate we were to have such a professional construction team. Thanks for your time and patience in building a truly beautiful well constructed home.

Ray & Debbie Guerin

Your team resolved quite a few problems in my previously renovated 1950s built home. They resolved everything from air conditioning issues to insulation problems to gas and water leaks. They fixed problems other people could not even find.

As new homeowners in Naples we had scheduled projects – generator install, gutters, as well as unscheduled events – the main AC unit breaking down with a difficult fix. Dave Raffa handled it all in a very calm, professional and extremely competent manner. Dave is truly outstanding – thorough, responsive, knowledgeable, positive, professional, great attention to detail – all in all he is a real pleasure to work with. Bryce Alexis was our initial contact and he was terrific. We are impressed with the entire Innovative Team!
