What to know about Weatherstripping
Weatherstripping is known here as draught sealing or weather seals, and it is the cheapest comfort work you can have done to an Australian house. Door bottom seals, perimeter seals on external doors, seals on double-hung and awning windows, sealing around an unused fireplace, closing the gaps where pipes and cables enter a wall, and dealing with the exhaust fans and vents that dump conditioned air into a roof space — that is the whole list, and none of it requires opening up a wall.

How to choose handymen in Broadmeadows
- Describe all the small jobs up front so the handyman can bring the right tools and give you a realistic estimate.
- Ask whether they charge by the hour, by the job or with a minimum visit fee.
- For anything involving wiring, gas or new plumbing, use a licensed trade instead of a general handyman.
- Check that they carry liability insurance, especially for work on ladders or on the exterior.
- Ask whether they supply materials or whether you should buy them ahead of time.
Questions to ask handymen before you hire
- Do you charge by the hour or by the job, and is there a minimum?
- Can you do all of the jobs on my list, or will some need a licensed trade?
- Will you bring the materials, or should I buy them?
- Are you insured if something is damaged while you're working?
- How do you handle it if a job takes longer than expected?

Common weatherstripping questions
Is LokalMatch free for homeowners?
Yes. You never pay LokalMatch to request quotes or talk to pros. Professionals pay a fee to connect with homeowners whose projects fit their business.
How many pros will contact me?
We introduce you to a small number of relevant pros — usually no more than three — so you’re not flooded with calls. If fewer pros are available in your area, we’ll tell you instead of promising quotes we can’t deliver.
Do I have to hire someone?
No. Requesting quotes doesn’t commit you to anything. Compare your options and hire only if someone is the right fit.
