Water leak from internal beading, I'm assuming either there is no (concealed?) drainage holes or they're blocked or maybe even the packers are blocking them? If I 'press' the bead, top or bottom, a bit of water comes out. It''s been going on for quite a while, I spent all summer making sure there's nothing 'above' allowing water in and am pretty sure thats not the cause of the problem.
I have attached an external view of the window and am unsure if the bottom rectangle should not be sealed where it meets the brickwork (above it is clear but obviously can't see in the gap with it being so small and anyway with it being concealed I wouldn't (or shouldn't) be able to see anything? If I take the internal bead out do you think it would be worth drilling a few holes, would I maybe even be able to see the problem? These were fit by Safestyle by the previous owner so I'm not confident on the fit.
Thanks
EDIT: Looking at it, is that bottom rectangle just some sort of square trim filler do you think?
