Sealing A Leak In Wooden Shed

My new wooden shed (18 months old) has a small leak under the window. Water runs down inside the wall and soaks the floor. Would anyone recommend a sealant to stop this? Would one of the spray sealants be effective? I have arthritis in my hands and find the plunger type difficult to use. Many thanks

If you were local to me I would sort it for you Chan, it needs to be addressed where the leak is first, you say under the window! this could be the case when the wind is blowing in the direction of the window, when looking out from inside the shed can you see daylight from the lower base of the window? Clear sealant is the answer of the Plunger type.

TWR's right, a normal silicone gun and tube, squirted all around the outside of the window frame,but in your case, try this ........
