Draught-proofing in Leicestershire

For homes, landlords and businesses in Leicestershire, draught-proofing starts with a free survey and a plain-English result. 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 Leicestershire

We cover 7 towns in Leicestershire, including Leicester, Loughborough, Hinckley, Coalville, Wigston Magna and more.

In Leicestershire 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 Leicestershire homes, because both matter for keeping a house dry.

Building Regulations in England

Filling an existing cavity wall is notifiable building work in England. Either a building notice goes to building control before the work, or the installer self-certifies it through a government-approved competent person scheme such as CIGA's CWISC scheme. The insulation used must also be suitable for the wall it goes into, which is why the survey checks construction, condition and exposure first.

Funding in England

  • ECO4, the energy-supplier scheme, has been extended to 31 December 2026 and government has said there will be no successor supplier obligation.
  • The Great British Insulation Scheme closed as planned on 31 March 2026.
  • Warm Homes: Local Grant supports low-income households in England through councils, and the January 2026 Warm Homes Plan sets out fully funded upgrades for low-income homes, with more detail still being published.

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
