Small plastic strip over the top and a good line of silicone should do that in most cases.wentokradio wrote:Top of outside frame for double glazed window needing sealed from rain, water damage inside, beneath window, needing repaired (crumbling plaster) -easy fix?

You could repoint the top of the frame with mortar, silicon is easier but really depends what was used before and how large the gap.
