Draught Proof Service
Enjoy a warmer, quieter, and more energy-efficient home — without compromising the charm of your traditional sash windows.
Our Draught Proofing Service is designed to restore your windows to full functionality while dramatically reducing cold draughts, rattles, dust, and external noise. Using beading with high-quality brush seals installed, we seal the air gaps that cause discomfort and energy loss — all without altering the original appearance of your windows.
Why Draught Proof Your Sash Windows?
Sash windows are built with a 3mm air gap to allow smooth operation. While essential for movement, this gap is also the source of cold draughts, rattling, noise pollution, and dust ingress — all of which impact your comfort and energy efficiency.
Our professional draught proofing service offers a discreet yet highly effective solution:
-
Significantly reduces external noise
-
Virtually eliminates draughts and dust
-

All of this is achieved without compromising the architectural integrity or period features of your property.
