Chhattisgarh’s monsoon tests every window in the house. The good news is that most leaks have simple causes, and a few checks before the rains go a long way.

Keep the drainage clear

Sliding windows have small drainage slots in the bottom track. When dust and leaves block them, water collects and finds its way inside. Clean the track and slots with a soft brush before the monsoon starts.

Check gaskets and brush seals

Rubber gaskets and brush seals stop wind-driven rain. If they are cracked, flattened or missing, ask your installer to replace them. It is a quick job.

Look at the wall joint

Water often enters between the frame and the wall rather than through the window itself. Damaged sealant around the frame should be cut out and redone.

A five-minute monsoon routine

  • Vacuum or brush the bottom tracks

  • Open and close each sash to check it locks fully

  • Wipe the gaskets with a damp cloth and look for gaps

  • Check the sealant around the outside of the frame

If you still see water coming in, our service team can inspect and fix it. Call us or message us on WhatsApp.
