How we work
Our weatherstripping & draught-proofing process
- 1
Find the leaks
Smoke pencil or hand-feel — we identify the actual draught paths.
- 2
Seal and strip
Fitted, not just stuck — proper compression seals last years.
- 3
Test
Re-check the same draught paths after install.
Local context
Pre-war Bondi homes leak heat through original windows and doors. Sealing them properly transforms how the house feels in winter.
Weatherstripping & Draught-Proofing questions, answered
Is draught-proofing worth it in Bondi's mild climate?
Yes — winter southerlies make older Bondi homes uncomfortably cold and noisy. Sealing also reduces street noise.Will it cause damp issues?
Not if the home has reasonable ventilation. We don't seal so tightly that natural air change stops.

Door Repair & Installation
A door that won't close properly is the most common Bondi callout we get — usually because timber moves with the salt air and old terraces shift on their footings. We rehang, plane, replace hardware, or fit new doors entirely.
Window Repair
Bondi windows take more abuse than almost anywhere in Sydney — salt mist, summer sun, and southerly buster gusts. We repair sash windows, sliding aluminium tracks, awning hinges, and timber that's swollen or rotted at the sill.
Screen Door & Flyscreen Repair
Torn flyscreen mesh, dragging sliding flyscreens, screen doors that won't latch, hinges that have rusted off — all repairable. We re-mesh, replace hardware, and rebuild damaged frames in one visit.
Silicone Resealing
Cracked, mouldy, or pulling-away silicone around your bath, shower, or kitchen lets water in where it shouldn't be. We strip the old, treat any mould behind it, and run fresh anti-mould silicone in clean lines.
