I'm about to repair a sash window with some rot along the bottom of the top sash. This will entail removing the staff and parting beadings, and whilst out I'd like to apply draughtproofing. I see various companies supply kits which consist of new beading with built in brushes to stop the draught.
There are various methods of advancing complexity and cost. The most economical would I think be to rout a groove myself into the beading and apply the carrier and brush. If my beading is OK I could do the whole house this way for about =A375 whereas buying kits would be =A3900.
Has anybody tried this?
If so which of the beading is the brush applied to, and what's the best way to seal the bottom edge of the lower sash?
