    3 Steps to Take If You Think Your Cincinnati Window is Leaking

    No one likes to discover that one of their windows is leaking, but if one is found immediate action needs to be taken before the damage gets worse. Leaking windows can cause damage to the carpet, floorboards, sheetrock, insulation, and more.

    So once you think you may have a leaking Cincinnati window, take action!

    #1: Mitigate a Leaking Cincinnati Window

    Mitigate is just a fancy insurance term that means that you need to attend to the current damage that you have found, and prevent any more damage from happening. So, if there is water coming in your Cincinnati home and you have narrowed it down to coming in from your window, you need to stop the water from getting to your window until you can get it fixed.

    To do this, don’t spray the area when you are cleaning the outside of your home or when you are watering, make sure that the yard sprinklers are not spraying the area when they turn on each day to water the yard, and cover the affected area with a tarp to prevent rain water from getting to the leaking window.

    #2: Get Help Fast for Your Leaking Cincinnati Window

    Call in a professional to take a look at the window and the damage that has been caused as soon as you can. Once they have assessed the damage, then they can start working on getting the problem fixed and repair the damage caused by the window.

    There are a number of questions that a contractor or other professional will need to ask to be able to assess the damage and the extent of the leak. So it is in your best interest to pay attention to the area so that you can answer the questions over the phone. If they have to come out and find the answers by themselves, it is going to end up costing you more to get the area repaired.

    #3: Start Looking for Replacement Cincinnati Windows

    If the window itself is leaking and it is not from faulty construction around the window, it is time to start looking for a replacement window.

    Contact us today and we can assist you in finding the right replacement window, and also when is the right time during this process to replace that leaky Cincinnati window.
