Weather stripping installation seals the gaps around exterior doors and operable windows that allow air, dust, insects, and moisture to enter your home. We install V-strip (tension seal), adhesive foam tape, tubular rubber, door sweeps, and door shoe weatherstripping. In Sacramento's hot climate, even small gaps around doors and windows force the AC to work harder. Replacing worn weatherstripping is one of the most cost-effective energy improvements you can make — it typically pays for itself within one cooling season. We inspect all exterior doors and windows and replace seals as needed.

Corning is located in Tehama County (Far North). Olive City with small-town affordable housing. The local utility provider is PG&E.

How do I know if my weatherstripping needs replacement?+

You can feel drafts around doors, see daylight around the edges, hear increased street noise, notice dust accumulation near doors, or feel the door rattle in the wind. A paper test also works: close the door on a piece of paper — if it slides out easily, the seal is worn.

Sealing air leaks around doors and windows can reduce heating and cooling costs by 5-15%, depending on how leaky your home is. In Sacramento's climate with high AC use, this translates to $50-$200+ per year in savings.
