External door draught proofing in London
Cold draughts usually come from small gaps around the sides, top or bottom of an external door. On this service, we fit suitable seals to reduce air coming through those gaps and improve day-to-day comfort.
We draught proof:
- standard front doors
- standard back doors
- French doors
How the service works
For most standard external doors, we fit a flexible profiled seal or brush seal around the perimeter of the frame. Where needed, we also fit a brush pile seal to the bottom edge of the door.
For French doors, the work is similar, but we also seal the meeting point where the two doors close together.
Because every door is slightly different, your handyman will first inspect the door, look at the condition of the frame and gaps, and talk through the most suitable draught proofing method with you before starting work.
How long it usually takes
- Standard front or back door: around 60 to 90 minutes
- French doors: around 1 to 2 hours
