How to Check the Caulking Around Your Doors & Windows

Hi, this is Jon on behalf of Expert Village in this video clip we'll be checking the caulking on our doors and windows. What you want to do is take a look at the joints where your window meets your house. At that seam there should be caulking and you want to take a close look at it and see if there is any cracked or broken away. Here you can see a small area where the caulking has started to crack so we are going to go ahead and recaulk that. I'm going to take and put just a small amount of caulking along my seam and I'm going to come back and take my finger and smooth that out. I'm just going to continue this on all of my windows.
