I have a 1960 bungalow which had all windows and doors replaced with double glazed aluminium external doors and windows. I have several places where damps is penetrating, at least I assume so as mould is appearing and in one case the skirting board is rotting. In all cases the ingress is in near the corner of either window or door. I have had a go in one case by replacing the mastic externally in the area of the damp on one window, but it is still occurring. Any ideas of how I can ascertain the cause, and more importantly prevent it?
