Frequently asked questions
- What does coverage by postcode involve?
- Our coverage by postcode service is carried out on site by hand: sashes are eased from the frame, worn parts are renewed and the windows are rebalanced and sealed so they open smoothly and stay draught free.
- How much does sash window draught proofing cost?
- Draught proofing is priced per window, typically £150–£600 depending on size, condition and whether cords, beads or glazing also need renewing. Every quote is fixed after a free on-site survey.
- How long does draught proofing a sash window take?
- A typical Victorian or Edwardian sash window takes 2–4 hours to draught proof, service and rebalance. A whole house of 8–12 windows is usually completed in 2–3 days with minimal disruption.
- Will draught proofing damage my period sash windows?
- No. We use conservation-grade brush and compression seals routed into the existing joinery. The work is fully reversible, protects the original timber and is approved for use on Grade II listed buildings.
- How much energy will I save after draught proofing?
- Homeowners typically see heating bills fall by around 30% after sash windows are draught proofed, and up to 75% less external noise once combined with secondary glazing.
- Do you offer a guarantee?
- Yes — every draught proofing and restoration job is covered by our 10-year workmanship guarantee, and we are fully insured for work on listed and period properties.
