Misted double glazing usually comes as a surprise to most house holders as their first thought is to wipe away the condensation, the problem is that you cant get at it. The condensation is neither on the outside of the window or the inside, it is between the glass in the middle of the double glazed unit meaning that the seal has broken down and is allowing moister to seep inside the cavity.
Draughty windows create cold spots and no go areas in your home, you possibly can feel the draught or it may be that you can hear more outside noise than you used to. What is the best way to fix it? I have listed 3 ways to get rid of cold areas around you doors and windows.
Draughty uPVC windows need effective seals, there are two rubber seals on each opening window, it might be that both have perished or it could be just one of them, feel if the rubber is still flexible by pressing it with your finger, if it is hard to the touch there is a high probability it has perished and will be unable to compress when the window is closed allowing cold air to penetrate.

Very rarely do you find an honest tradesman who will agree a date and turn up on time. Dennis came in and looked at the 2 jobs I needed repairing and just cracked on. He was here less than an hour and the costs were much less than I was expecting. A problem door now feels like it was recently installed. Thank you Dennis I will certainly be keeping your card handy.
