Save money, keep your house warm

How much would it cost to draught-proof my house?

Upfront and honest pricing

Handy tip to feel warmer and save money

Always allow airborne moister to escape. When drying clothes, or after a bath or shower, open a window to allow moister to escape. Airbourne moister can cause damp and mould problems. It also absorbs a lot of heat which can mean that it takes longer to heat a room, costing more in energy bills.

Local Expertise: We’re based right here in York, and understand the specific challenges of maintaining both the city’s historic properties and modern builds.
Clear, Honest Pricing: No hidden fees. We provide straightforward fixed price quotes so you know exactly what to expect.

Draught proofing older properties and period houses

York has some fantastic older properties, and beautiful Victorian and Edwardian town houses across the city in areas such as Bootham and Bishopthorpe road. Unfortunately these older properties are not always great at retaining heat and can get very draughty. We have solutions to fit any budget, and can install door and window seals which don’t compromise on your interior style.

Draught proofing doors

External doors are the primary culprits for heat loss. We install high-quality, durable weather stripping, brush strips, and threshold seals that block draughts.

Draught proofing windows

Windows are also the main culprits for loss of heat in your house. We can install seals, fill any gaps around the window inside or outside.

Loft insulation

Having adequate loft insulation is key to preventing heat loss. Heat rises and can literally send your heating bills through the roof!

Loft hatch

Heat rises, meaning a poorly sealed loft hatch acts like an open chimney. We insulate and add tight rubber seals to loft hatches.

Sealing wall gaps

Small gaps in walls, around cables, pipes, and windows can cause heat to escape. We can see where heat is escaping and fill any external gaps.

Efficient heating check-up

We can look at the heating flow around a room, or entire house and look at improving air flow and optimise your heating system.
