Draught-proofing in Chelmsford

Chelmsford homeowners, landlords and managing agents can book draught-proofing with a free survey first. Draught-proofing seals the gaps that let warm air out and cold air in, around doors, windows, letterboxes, loft hatches and skirting boards, while leaving planned ventilation alone.

Draught-proofing for Chelmsford properties

Our Essex coverage takes in Chelmsford (CM1) and nearby Billericay, Witham and Maldon. Chelmsford is one of the main towns we cover in Essex.

In Chelmsford homes this is often done on the same visit as a cavity fill, which saves a second trip. Small measures like this are often among the cheapest per pound saved, and they suit Chelmsford homes of every age.

In terms of approvals, if cavity wall insulation follows in Chelmsford, filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification.

Funding in England

In England, ECO4 runs to 31 December 2026 and Warm Homes: Local Grant supports low-income households through councils.

Ventilation still matters

Trickle vents, air bricks and extractor fans are there for a reason. We seal accidental gaps, not the ventilation your home needs to keep condensation down.
