WHY SASH WINDOWS LEAK
It’s the 3mm gap
Every traditional sash has a small air gap of around 3mm so it can slide. That same gap lets in draughts, dust and noise, and lets the sash rattle in the wind. Draught proofing seals it while keeping the window moving freely.
SIGNS YOUR WINDOWS NEED IT
✓ Cold rooms and draughts
✓ Rattling in the wind
✓ Street noise inside
✓ Dust on the sills
✓ Sticky, heavy sashes
✓ High heating bills
WHAT’S INCLUDED
A complete overhaul, not just seals.
Thirteen steps on every window, grouped here into six stages.
01
Protect and free
Dust sheets laid throughout. Stop beads removed and paint scraped back so the sashes move freely.
02
Remove and inspect
Both sashes and the parting beads come out. Putty, joints, glass and timber are checked and repaired.
03
Four new cords
Fresh sash cords fitted on every window, so nothing is left to snap later.
04
Rebalanced
Weights adjusted or added so each sash glides and stays exactly where you leave it.
05
Sealed
New draught seal parting beads and stop beads, plus an excluder at the meeting rail.
06
Cleaned and tested
Rubbish removed, the area vacuumed, and every window tested with you. Backed by a workmanship guarantee.
No obligation at any stage. Decide not to go ahead after your free quote and there's nothing to pay.

How much does sash window draught proofing cost in Sydney?
Every home is different, so Matt gives you a free, itemised quote on site. The price depends on the number, size and condition of your windows, and there are no hidden extras.
Will draught proofing change how my windows look?
No. The seals sit discreetly within the frame, so your windows keep their original appearance.
Does draught proofing include new sash cords?
Yes. Four new cords are fitted and the sashes rebalanced as part of every draught proofing job.
Does draught proofing reduce street noise?
Yes. Sealing the gaps around each sash cuts down outside noise noticeably. For busier roads, acoustic glass can reduce it further.
Can draught proofing lower my energy bills?
Sealing the gaps stops warm and cool air escaping, so your heating and cooling don't have to work as hard.
Will my windows still open easily afterwards?
Easier than before. Freeing, repairing and rebalancing the sashes improves how smoothly they glide.
