We have a 1960s house with timber joinery and we have quite a draft coming through on windy days. Any suggestions on a fix?. Saw 3m window seals but is this what would normally be used?.

which is why we replaced all our joinery with Aluminium, our home is pretty warm and draft proof since, especially since we replaced French doors with a double glazed slider, that has made an enormous difference.

Welcome to mould and condensation.

That's just wrong otherwise all modern houses the world over would be damp and mouldy.

Maybe your home has mould and condensation but not ours lol this is the driest most comfortable home we have ever had the pleasure of owning, and we have built a couple before this. Edit to add not even our bathrooms have ever had mould anywhere.

Aaaaaah. (also OP). I suddenly I see why people might replace nice old wooden windows with modern aluminium. I always look and think 'aw, why?', especially in character houses, but weighed against warmth in winter I think I'd make the same choice. Our place is a semi-modern box that already has aluminium.
