Hello everyone,

I need your opinion on a window issue.

We had exterior window sills made of aluminum installed in our brick house. However, at some windows, there is a large vertical gap (see photo, about 2cm (0.8 inches)).

A question for the sealer: The gap is too wide for a silicone joint.
A question for the mason: The gap is too wide for a mortar joint.

Since we will soon have a meeting with the builder, what would you consider the best solution here?

Thanks for any helpful suggestions
Ben
