Draught-proofing
Keep the character. Lose the draughts.
Traditional sash windows should feel at home in your house—not make it uncomfortable. Carefully fitted draught-proofing helps reduce unwanted air movement while respecting the appearance of the original joinery.
A closer fit for a more comfortable home
Gaps around moving sashes can let cold air in and contribute to rattling. We inspect the fit and condition of the window, then recommend suitable draught-exclusion measures alongside any necessary repairs.
Discreet draught-exclusion beads
Our service includes wooden draught-exclusion beads where appropriate. The aim is a practical, discreet solution that works with the window rather than obscuring its traditional detailing.
Operation matters as much as sealing
Draught-proofing needs to be considered alongside sash movement, cords, balance and the condition of the frame. We assess these together so the window remains usable after the work.
What improvement can I expect?
Reducing uncontrolled draughts can improve comfort and may help reduce heat loss. Results depend on the window and the wider building; we do not promise fixed savings or that all outside noise will disappear.
Does every gap need sealing?
No. Ventilation and the way your home manages moisture need to be considered. We discuss the condition and use of each window before recommending the scope.
