    It sounds like the lock isn't working on your window, replacement handles with locks can be bought from most DIY shops for around €12, or from ebay for €4 including postage.

    Which seals do you believe are gone? Is there a draft? normally its cause the window won't close properly and its an issue with the hinges. The hinges can be replaced quite easily.

    A handyman should be able to do both of these, or there are services being offered on adverts.

    this one particular window you can feel a breeze even with window closed, would you have a link for the services been offered in adverts etc thanks
