I have a standard upvc casement window. One side has a hinged casement. The other has what appears to be a push fit casement (non opening). A gap has opened up at the bottom so it's no longer sealed but doesn't seem to push back home. Any idea how these are fixed in? Any easy fixes?

The fixed side(dummy sash) needs to be deglazed, the gap closed and then screwed into place, unsure why it would move though, my guess is its only screwed in the middles and not near the corners. Oh and your window system is made by 'Duraflex', one of the worst glazing bead designs on the planet, screwing the sash back in place is the easy bit, getting the beads back in afterwards is a PITA especially if you've never glazed a pvc window
