GLEN COVE, N.Y. - s4story -- GLEN COVE, N.Y. – As Atlantic hurricane season continues, homeowners across Nassau County are reminded that storm-related window damage does not always involve shattered glass. In many cases, the first warning sign is water appearing around a window frame during heavy rain.

WindowFixGuru™, a licensed and insured window and door repair company serving Long Island, is highlighting the importance of identifying window leaks before moisture causes additional damage to surrounding walls, wooden frames, and interior finishes.

Why Windows Leak During Heavy Storms

Wind-driven rain can reach areas that remain dry during ordinary weather conditions. Aging weatherstripping, deteriorated glazing seals, failed exterior caulking, and gaps around window installations may allow water to enter.

However, not every leak originates inside the window itself. Damaged exterior flashing, siding connections, and surrounding construction can also contribute to water infiltration.

"Homeowners sometimes believe that a leaking window automatically needs replacement," said a WindowFixGuru™specialist. "But the first step is identifying exactly where the water is entering. In many situations, targeted repairs can address the problem without removing the entire window."

Warning Signs Homeowners Should Watch For

Water infiltration may not always be immediately visible.

Common warning signs include:

• Water stains around window frames or interior trim
• Peeling paint and softening wooden window sills
• Drafts or moisture around closed windows
• Deteriorated weatherstripping and glazing seals
• Condensation or fogging between double-pane glass
• Difficulty opening or closing windows after prolonged moisture exposure

These symptoms can indicate different problems, and an inspection helps determine whether the window, surrounding installation, or adjacent building materials require attention.

When glass is cracked, broken, or foggy because of a failed insulated glass seal, glass replacement may be possible without replacing the entire window.

For homes with significant structural deterioration or extensive storm damage, complete window replacement may be necessary.

The company recommends evaluating the condition of existing windows before deciding on replacement.
