The wind whistles through spaces between my double glazing & the wall where they have been badly fitted. The windows and frames are fine, I just need the gaps filling. Can anyone advise me how to rectify this & what to use or maybe recommend someone reliable or a reputable company who can carry out whats needed please?

b) What the walls are made of (& if brick, is there a cavity?);
c) How big the gap is.
