    Hi there,
    I'm looking to seal an old stone wall, gable end of house that leaks rain water through it. The wall is adequately pointed but needs to keep the water out completely as its leaking through the window frames into the house.  The pointing is a mixture of lime mortar and cement mortar in different sections. 
     
    Would something like "Waterproofer Plus Masonry Protector" or "Wykamol Dryseal Masonry Protection" do the job? 

    Thanks in advance

    So is it the window junction or the stone wall that is the problem ?

    Water coming in window junction, but windows look to be well formed, so thinking the issue is stone wall above letting water soak through.

    Have a look at Paraguard AG by Parex.
