      Same, were you able to find a replacement?

      @@allendeutsch3188 I've not had time to look as it stands now I will likely have to buy a router and a bit. I think I know what I need not sure, it's an odd groove maybe 1/2 inch from the top of the board, making a round edge. I'm sure it's still being made. This house was made in the late 80's so it should be impossible to match some styles.

      Glad it helped! I believe they can be used interchangeably

    Hey, I'm going to be doing this to a window in my house soon, did you find what was causing the original water leak?

    • @DIYCollective
      @DIYCollective  Před 2 lety +1

      Hi Robert! It was just damage from condensation build up from normal wear and tear over the years. The windows were 25 years old

    The apron? (the thingie on the bottom) can it be removed the same way as the sill?

    • @DIYCollective
      @DIYCollective  Před 3 lety

      Sorry for the delay in response! Yes, the apron can be removed the same way if needed

    I am buying a new home. What are the benefits of having windows sill? Right now I am skipping this considering cost-cutting. If I know the real benefits of it and if this is something that can't be done later then I'll re-think it. Please help me.

      Hi Kumar, we are not actual builders/contractors but from what we have researched, window sills are a very important and necessary part of windows.

    what is the first tool you mention ? the handy seeks or something ?

  • @arlancastro7727

    Did you have a water leak around the window?

    My window sill is fitted to go under the dry wall on the sides, and is nailed 😔

    • @DIYCollective
      @DIYCollective  Před 5 měsíci

      You can still do it you will just have to pry it out and fix the drywall potentially after as I did. Hope you managed to get it replaced!

      Ahhh yes noob mistake but the no major damage done

  • @jameslund221
    @jameslund221 Před 2 lety +6

    Sorry but what you are working on is called a stool not the sill.

    • @DIYCollective
      @DIYCollective  Před 11 měsíci +3

      Thanks! That's right, I believe the terms are used interchangeably . The product is called silltech so i referred to it as a sill

  • @jameslund221
    @jameslund221 Před 2 lety +3

    I believe what you removed was the stool, not the sill. Sorry 😞

    • @DIYCollective
      @DIYCollective  Před rokem +1

      Thanks James. That may be technically correct. I believe they are use interchangeably. The company manufacturing them is called sill rite. And is selling these branded as window sills.

      Hi Ryan, thanks for watching . The sill and wall were already destroyed from water damage and needed repair.
