double glazed window loose in frame

stumagoo

My window pane is loose within its frame, I think the sealant must be knackered. What is the best way of fixing this problem without buying a new window

What sort of window frame is it? uPVC, or wood? Do you mean the frame is loose to the brickwork or the glazed unit to the frame?

Its a wooden frame and the glazed unit is loose in the frame.

Use some window sealant forced into the gap, preferably from the outside, using a sealant gun. Clean off the surplus whilst it's still soft.
