You can, but the foam will expand, so I would recommend a piece of trim. It would be easier to cover the gap . Hope this helps Danny

The best way is to buy a window trims you can get these from eurocell shops cut it to length and then silicone it down this will help cover your gap and also as you use silicone it will seal it to stop any air coming through if you have air coming through if not I still recommend silicone it down as a secondary seal.

Hi, I can't access the image via your link, But if you are speaking about the gap Between the bottom of the frame, and the uPVC cill, this gap is crucial, to allow water to drain away, water that naturally builds up withing the frames. all the Best Andy.
