Draught-proofing in Glasgow

Glasgow properties get the same survey-first approach to draught-proofing: check, explain, price, then book. 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 across Glasgow

We cover Glasgow and its surrounding districts.

In Glasgow homes this is often done on the same visit as a cavity fill, which saves a second trip. We check ventilation as carefully as insulation in Glasgow homes, because both matter for keeping a house dry.

Building standards in Scotland

In Scotland, work associated with thermal insulating material within a wall is listed in schedule 3 of the Building (Scotland) Regulations as work that does not need a building warrant. It must still meet the building standards, so the survey still checks that the wall and the chosen material are suitable, including exposure to wind-driven rain.

Funding in Scotland

  • Home Energy Scotland is the starting point for the Home Energy Scotland Grant and Loan and for Warmer Homes Scotland, which can include cavity wall insulation.
  • Many councils also run area-based schemes for insulation in particular streets or estates.
  • ECO4 runs until 31 December 2026 across Great Britain, including Scotland.

Sources: Scottish Government: building work not requiring a warrant (schedule 3); Home Energy Scotland; mygov.scot: grants and loans for energy saving improvements; GOV.UK: extending the ECO4 end date, government response.

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.

What is included

  • Door and window seals
  • Letterbox and keyhole covers
  • Loft hatch seals
  • Skirting and floor gap sealing
