15th March 2012

If your sash windows are draughty, cold and rattle in the wind, then it might be about time you do something about it. If money is tight, then instead of replacing them, a cheaper alternative is to have the windows draught proofed. This will provide insulation and fill in any gaps that your current windows may have.

The specially trained experts will check the weights, fit new nylon cords and put in new parting and staff beads with draught excluders. The draught excluder will also befitted across the centre of your bottom sash, so you will be able to open both of your sash windows with ease and without any rattles.

One of the main benefits of draught proofing your windows is it will save you money on your electricity bills. The brush pile draught excluding system which is fitted will result in a great amount of draughts being eradicated and ensuring that the windows are no longer prone to that annoying rattling.

Another reason why draught proofing your widows is a good idea is to alleviate any noise pollution. Many houses are on busy streets in cities and towns, and car alarms, trains and passers-by could be disturbing you more than you realise. Draught proofing is one of the best ways to reduce noise pollution, as sash windows can often have gaps in between the box and the windows themselves. Draught proofing blocks those gaps, which will cut out a considerable amount of noise.
