HI. I am thinking of buying a property. It is a 2 bed terrace, the second bedroom has been converted into an attic room. In the bedroom there are three small double glazed windows. However, the window sill has a very obvious bump in the middle (the windo sill goes up in the middle - like an upside down smile shape!). Any ideas what has caused this? How i would mend it so the window sill is straight - and the cost and effort required???!!! I am a first time buyer with little diy knowledge!

the cill is probably warped due to moisture from the window,to starighten it up you could cut some wedges and knock them in under the cill,with a straight edge on the cill kepp knocking the wedge in untill the cill just touches the straight edge,when it does stick some packers under the cill and then fix,if possible drill and plug the fixings,repeat on the other side,job done ;) paul
