Timber glazing upgrades in Gravesend
Most Draught Sealing enquiries we take in Gravesend start with an opening that is not a standard size. You are mostly dealing with weatherboarded Kentish cottages, oast conversions and coastal terraces around here, so openings vary more than people expect. Set against salt-laden easterly wind along the coast, most joinery here eventually shows coating breakdown on exposed elevations and corrosion of ironmongery. The detail we will not compromise on is sealing the perimeter without making anything stiff to open.
Nothing is ordered until someone has stood in front of the opening with a tape. We will price it properly in writing, and we will tell you if it is not worth doing.
A local consideration we always raise: coastal exposure makes finish specification more important than timber species.

“The survey showed most of the loss was around the frames, not through the glass at all.”
Verified client, Kent“Half the cost of replacement and the rooms hold heat noticeably better.”
Verified client, Kent“They fitted trickle vents we had not thought about, which stopped the condensation.”

Do you deliver nationwide?
Yes, we deliver across England, Wales and Scotland. Delivery is priced into the quotation so there is no separate charge added later.
Do you work in hardwood or softwood?
Both. Engineered hardwood is the default where movement or exposure is a concern, and slow-grown softwood is often the better value choice for painted work in sheltered positions. We will tell you which we would specify and why.
What guarantee do you provide?
Ten years on workmanship, covering manufacture and the factory-applied finish. Where we install, the installation is covered too. It is issued in writing with the handover paperwork.
Will the finish need maintaining?
A factory-applied microporous finish typically needs inspection every three to five years, sooner on exposed coastal elevations. Maintaining it is far cheaper than letting a coating fail and the timber take up water.
How long does a typical order take?
Most made-to-size orders run six to ten weeks from survey to delivery. Conservation and heavily detailed work can take longer, and we confirm the lead time in writing at quotation rather than leaving it open.
