Draught Proofing

This process will significantly reduce heat loss, saving you money on your energy costs. It will also eliminate any gaps or rattling in your sash windows. In addition, you will notice a considerable improvement in the level of sound insulation once we have carried out this work. We can also apply this process to doors and other types of timber windows

Please see the following PDF for a description of the work and a list of what we include in our draught proofing service. Click to enlarge the photos below for step-by-step pictures of how we do it.
