Services
Draught-proofing is one of the most efficient ways of reducing noise and cold air coming in through gaps in worn or ill-fitting windows as well as eliminating all rattles.
Once we have removed the top and bottom sash windows they are checked over and any rotten wood is either repaired, using our unique 2 part epoxy resin, or replaced with new if needed.
This includes the sash windows, box frames and window sills.
Whilst we strive to restore your existing windows, if they are beyond repair we can supply and install new sash windows.

Our draught proof brushes are then embedded in the parting beads, staff beads and the gap between top and bottom sash forming the full weather seal draught excluding system when shut.
This also allows your top and bottom sash windows to run freely and smoothly, as well as hugely reducing outside noise and eliminating any rattles.

Upgrading sash windows with a unique draught proofing system that will not detract from the appearance of the windows will save money long term and add value to your home.
More heat is lost from leakage through the gaps around sash windows than can be saved by trying to double-glaze your existing sashes, which in many cases won't be possible anyway.
A 1mm gap around a window measuring 1.8 metres by 1.2 metres equates to a gap of over 11 square inches!
This compares to the size of a letter box.
In our experience, the average gap is more than 1mm.

Allwood Sash Windows have many years of experience in restoring, repairing and renovating sash windows covering everything from large graded period properties down to smaller terraced houses.
Each sash window is individual in terms of restoration and draught-proofing.
However, we would expect to complete 3 or 4 medium sized windows in a day and replacing a sill, depending on how rotten it is, takes roughly the same time as draught-proofing a sash window.
The quote for installing the draught-proofing system will depend on the size and condition of the sash window, which will be established at survey.

Whilst we strive to restore your existing windows, if they are beyond repair we can supply and install new sash windows.
This would be discussed on our initial inspection, though this is rare as most sash windows can be repaired and renovated to their original beauty.
Where the outer sill had become rotten over years of weathering, we supplied and fitted a new hardwood outer sill and draught proof serviced the sash windows.
This is a typical job where we have supplied and fitted new hardwood sills around the bay window whilst draught proof servicing the sash windows.
