Dorchester, Dorset

Draught Proofing & Restoration in Dorchester

Routed-in brush pile, new cords and rebalanced weights turn a rattling original sash into something that seals and glides.

£380 – £950Guide range for Dorchester, supplied and fitted, including VAT.

Dorchester has a housing stock that punishes off-the-shelf joinery — openings settle, reveals go out of square, and cills rarely sit level. Bespoke draught proofing & restoration solve that properly.

What is included

Standard on every Dorchester order
  • Warm-edge spacer bars as standard, which cut the cold bridge at the glass edge and reduce condensation.
  • Compression seals rather than brush pile where the design allows, for a measurably tighter close.
  • FSC-certified hardwood with documented chain of custody, available on request for planning submissions.
  • Warm-edge spacer bars as standard, which cut the cold bridge at the glass edge and reduce condensation.

Questions

Are hardwood windows secure?

Yes. Multi-point locking, laminated glass options and key-locking handles are all available, and a solid hardwood frame is considerably harder to attack than a hollow plastic one. We can specify to PAS 24 where a planning condition or insurer requires it.

Do you take away the old windows?

Yes. Removal and responsible disposal are included, along with making good internally. We work one opening at a time so the property is never left open, and we clear the site each day.

How much disruption should I expect?

Less than most people fear. A straightforward replacement is one opening at a time, typically two to four windows a day. Scaffolding is only needed on higher elevations. We protect floors and furniture and leave the site clean each evening.

How long do hardwood windows actually last?

Properly specified and maintained hardwood joinery has a realistic service life of 60 years or more. The timber is rarely what fails — it is the finish and the seals, and both are renewable. That is the fundamental advantage over uPVC, where a failed unit or a distorted frame means the whole window goes.
