Our Process
The draught proofing process
- Remove the lower sash and route a groove into the meeting rail; fit brush pile and carrier
- Replace parting beads with new parting beads containing brush pile
- Add compressible seals to the top of the top sash and bottom of the lower sash
- Reassemble the window and make good any decorative disturbance
The draught proofing process:
- The lower sash is removed from the frame. A groove is routed into the meeting rail (where the two sashes meet in the closed position) a brush pile and carrier is fitted into the groove.
- The existing parting beads are removed and replaced with new parting beads that contain a draught proofing brush pile.
- A hard wearing compressible seal is added to the top of the top sash and to the bottom of the lower sash.
- The window is then reassembled. Any disturbance we have made to the decoration is made good.
- The end result is a sash window draught proofed around it's perimeters, rattles are eliminated and noise resistance is improved.
- If sash cords are a bit frayed, replacing them while draught proofing is a good idea. Add £25+vat per cord.
- All our Work is Guaranteed & Insured. We offer a 12 month guarantee on all labour and parts we supply.
