Sash Window Draught Proofing
 
On Draught and Weather Proofing Period Windows and Doors
Since 1989 we have been developing and improving our exclusive weather proofing treatment for period fenestration. The object being to achieve maximum insulation and heat retention whilst maintaining architectural integrity. In other words beautiful period windows and doors that are energy efficient. The design features of our unique system have now remained unchanged for the last six years simply because it has become the choice of professional specifiers and discerning homeowners. We've got it right and so you might call it state of the art.
Draught proofing sash windows and doors is rated at 5% VAT by HMRC under the Energy-Savings Materials Scheme
If you watched the English heritage video on our 'About us' page you'll realise just how many options there are in achieving a well insulated door or window. First and foremost, however, perimeter draught proofing must be installed.
On choosing a durable draught proofing material
We install or supply our own weather proofing system.
The alternative is a brush- pile weather stripping. They will advise you that brush-pile can be replaced quite simply after it has perished in 2 years or so, or sooner if your decorator swipes it with paint. The truth is that replacing brush pile is tantamount to having the whole job repeated.
Below you can see how our system compares with what you will generally be offered ...
