Cracks round window frame: which sealant?
Stripping the wallpaper in the kitchen has revealed cracks between the
window frame and brickwork/plaster. Is it best to seal these cracks or just wallpaper over them? What type of sealant to use -- a look on screwfix.com shows silicone sealant, frame sealant etc. Bruce |

If it really is in the corner and will be the finished surface Silicon will look ok - either transparent or white and you want 'Low Modulus' (LMA) which should reamin flexible even when it gets cold - as it will!
