Locate the unwanted airflow

Signs That Draught Seals Need Assessment

Note where and when you feel air movement with the opening in its normal closed position. A cold surface or rattling fitting alone does not establish that a replacement seal is the right solution.

01

Draught Around the Front Door

Show the top and side edges and describe where airflow is noticeable. Existing seal contact and door position need checking before choosing replacement weatherstripping.

02

Gap at the Door Threshold

Photograph the bottom edge and threshold. The gap, floor clearance and door movement determine whether a suitable threshold or brush strip can be fitted without obstructing operation.

03

Cold Air Around a Window

Identify whether the airflow seems to come from the opening perimeter or elsewhere near the frame. Seal condition, closure and accessible gaps help distinguish a minor sealing task from a wider defect.

04

Worn Door Weatherstripping

Send close views of flattened, split, detached or missing seal sections. Door weatherstrip replacement needs a compatible profile and suitable fitting surface, rather than simply adding a thicker strip.

05

Uneven Seal Contact

A seal may touch in one area and leave a gap in another. Alignment and the closing mechanism need review so extra seal material is not used to compensate for an unrelated hardware problem.

06

Airflow Near Ventilation Openings

Tell us about nearby vents or other designed openings. Required ventilation and drainage paths must remain functional; draught proofing is scoped around unwanted gaps, not indiscriminate sealing.

Assess the opening first

How Draught Proofing Is Arranged

The visit starts by reviewing the reported airflow and existing opening. Suitable seal work is agreed after the condition and operation have been considered.

Send Photos and Symptoms

Provide your postcode, number of affected doors or windows and photographs of the edges and existing seals. Describe the airflow location, when it occurs and any closing difficulties.

Review Gaps and Seal Contact

Check accessible perimeter gaps, the fitting surface and normal closing action. Identify worn seals, alignment concerns or other issues that may need a separate service.

Agree Suitable Materials

Confirm the seal type or strip, affected sections and quotation. Consider compatibility, available clearance and ventilation or drainage requirements before fitting proceeds.

Fit and Check Operation

Carry out the agreed seal work and review contact, opening, closing and relevant latch engagement. Explain any remaining gaps or condition concerns beyond the minor sealing scope.

Match the seal to the opening

Brush Strip or Compression Seal?

The suitable option depends on the opening design, gap and movement. Seal choice should follow compatibility checks rather than an assumption that more material will produce a better result.

Brush or Threshold Strip

A suitable brush or threshold arrangement may address an appropriate door-edge gap while allowing the intended movement. Its position and contact must suit the door and floor clearance without causing dragging or interference.

Compression Seal

A compatible compression seal works through contact as the opening closes. Its profile and compression must suit the existing arrangement; unsuitable thickness can make closing difficult and may leave uneven contact elsewhere.

New seals or door adjustment? A worn seal and a dropped door can both leave gaps. Where the opening position is the cause, see Door Alignment and Adjustment. Replacing seals does not automatically correct hinge movement or poor alignment.

Draught Proofing Costs and Visit Details

The quotation and duration depend on the number of openings, accessible gaps, existing seal condition and compatible materials. The service addresses agreed local sealing work; specific energy savings or complete draught elimination are not assumed.

Opening and Seal Information

  • An overview of each affected door or window, plus close photographs of existing seals and visible gaps.
  • Opening type and material if known, number of affected sections and any product or seal details available.
  • Where and when airflow is noticed, previous sealing attempts and whether the opening closes and latches normally.

Access and Scope Factors

  • London postcode, floor level, accessible working space and any furniture or fittings restricting access.
  • Condition of fitting surfaces, removal of old seal material and availability of a compatible replacement profile.
  • Any fire-door or specialist opening status; structural repairs, glazing replacement and full renovation require a separate scope.

 A window handle or lock is faulty

Window Lock Repair & Replacement

For window locking mechanisms or handles that prevent normal engagement.

 The door scrapes the floor

Door Trimming for Sticking & Rubbing Doors

For assessment of controlled material removal where a suitable door lacks clearance.
The agreed work can include fitting or replacing suitable seals or strips at accessible door and window perimeter gaps. The opening and closing action are checked first. Alignment repairs, locking mechanisms, glazing and structural work are not automatically included.
