Free Draught Proofing

In partnership with Home Energy Scotland and funded by Greenshoots Fund, we offer a free draught proofing service for older or disabled Edinburgh residents.

Draught proofing doors, windows, letter boxes and key holes can be one of the cheapest and most effective ways to save energy and money in any type of building.

To find out if you could benefit from our free draught proofing service, please complete the online form below.  You can also call us on 0131 337 1111 or email reception@cre.scot.

We will then arrange for Home Energy Scotland to contact you to discuss your property and assess your eligibility for any additional support. If they believe that draught proofing could be beneficial we will make an appointment for a member of the Care & Repair Edinburgh team to carry out the work.

Home Energy Scotland is a network of local advice centres covering all of Scotland, funded by the Scottish Government and managed by Energy Saving Trust.  Their expert advisors offer free, impartial advice on energy saving, renewable energy, sustainable transport, waste prevention and more.

What people say

Telephone call was dealt with promptly and advice given. It was reassuring to use a contractor that was recommended

It is so reassuring to know the trade people are vetted. Also, as always, the tradesman who came did a class job.

The hand rail at our back doorstep is just what we needed. The work was carried out promptly and efficiently by a pleasant worker. We are totally satisfied.

Calum is a very personable and competent young man. He listened carefully to the problem and fixed it. Can’t ask for more.

Very efficient service both on the telephone and by the joiner who came by to fit the keysafe. very impressed.

The key box was placed exactly where we wanted it to be put, with a maximum of efficiency and a minimum of fuss. You run a very good service which is greatly appreciated.

Alan is a gentleman. I’ve had him before and found him to be very helpful and willing to go the extra mile, by asking is there anything else I need done. This is an excellent service

Response from Care & Repair was prompt. Melvyn (volunteer) was caring and competent. A delightful man actually. I am so pleased that Care & Repair exists!
