In Ashburton, Victoria, Sealasash recently completed a draught sealing Ashburton project for a home with original double-hung timber windows. Over time, the frames had warped, allowing cold draughts to enter the house and leaving some sashes difficult to operate.
Our team carried out careful repairs to restore the timber frames and improve functionality. Once the structure was sound, we applied our core service of draught and acoustic sealing across the windows. This eliminated air leakage, stopped rattles, and ensured the windows worked smoothly while maintaining their original heritage look.
Why Draught Sealing Matters in Ashburton
Many homes in Ashburton feature beautiful timber windows that are part of the property’s charm, but often perform poorly in modern conditions. Draught sealing is a proven way to improve thermal comfort, reduce energy bills, and extend the life of timber joinery. As highlighted in our Simple Solutions Work article, sealing is one of the most effective first steps homeowners can take to improve comfort.
Results of the Ashburton Project
With repairs and draught sealing complete, the Ashburton home now benefits from:
- Smoothly operating sash windows restored to original function
- Draught-free interiors for greater comfort year-round
- Reduced noise and improved energy efficiency
- Heritage character preserved with discreet modern upgrades
This project shows how draught sealing Ashburton homes can solve common issues with older windows, delivering comfort and efficiency while retaining original style.
