Hello everyone!
Our house is a detached house from 1999, fully faced with brick. After 18 years, the silicone joint around the plastic windows is becoming porous and certainly also leaking - so I want to replace it.
At first, I thought directly of a company that does this. In the meantime, however, I have also replaced various joints inside myself, which worked very well with "Fugis". I must say that I am by no means a craftsman.
Unfortunately, such sealing companies charge high prices when all windows + terrace elements are replaced. And now I am wondering if I could do it myself. However, the Fugis probably only work well if there is a smooth surface (e.g. inside between the windowsill and the window frame). Outside, with a rough brick, I imagine that is more difficult...
What do you recommend for this or how do professional companies do it?
Thank you very much in advance!
