We have a few draughty PVC windows around the house. Is it worth having them resealed ?

Are the draughts coming from between the frames and the walls, or the glass and the frames?
Where's it coming in Math? Around the frame, or where they close?
...or, more likely, around the opening parts?
Try spraying the seals with Autoglym vinyl and rubber care, softens them up. Done mine made a difference. If that does not work then it's get a guy in to renew seals of opening windows.

Thanks for your response ABrs - It's comin through where the window closes....
Definitely worth doing - cheap job.
Before you get into seals, Math, see if there's any adjustment on the hinges. uPVC doors have all kinds of fine-tuning features. Your windows may well have as well. See if you can find a uPVC-savvy carpenter locally.
