Draught Sealing across Dorset
The hard part of Draught Sealing in Dorset is not the making, it is the measuring. With Purbeck stone cottages, Victorian resort villas and thatched inland villages making up much of the area, off-the-shelf sizes rarely line up. The other factor is exposed Channel coast with intense salt and UV load, which is why rapid finish failure and fixings corrosion within a few seasons on seafront stock is the most common reason people call us. What we concentrate on is sealing the perimeter without making anything stiff to open.
Nothing goes into manufacture until a surveyor has checked each opening on site. Send us sizes and a photograph and we will come back with a fixed written price.
Something particular to this area: Jurassic Coast properties need stainless fixings as standard, not an upgrade.

Frequently asked questions
Do you cover Dorset?
Yes. We cover the whole of Dorset including Bournemouth, Poole, Weymouth, Dorchester and the surrounding villages. Jurassic Coast properties need stainless fixings as standard, not an upgrade. Because exposed Channel coast with intense salt and UV load, we allow for it at survey stage rather than discovering it on the day.
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.
What if the opening is out of square?
Most older openings are. The survey records the actual dimensions at several points and the unit is manufactured to suit, which is the main reason we survey rather than work from the sizes given over the phone.
Do you take a deposit?
Not before the measured survey. A deposit is only requested once the survey is complete and you have approved the final schedule and price.
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.
