About Sellaseal
Sellaseal sells the seals, epoxy, cord and hardware the Sealasash window crews use on the job, so you can do the same repairs on your own windows and doors.
How it started · 2011
It began with a conversation between two friends: John, from Tasmania, and Colm, who had recently moved from Ireland, where he had spent years making and supplying seals for windows and doors.
That conversation became Sealasash, which now repairs and draught-seals old timber windows and doors, with crews in Hobart, Launceston and Melbourne. Sellaseal is the supply side: the same products the crews carry, sold to homeowners and trades Australia-wide.
Why are Australians happy to live with rattly, old, draughty windows? No one in Ireland would put up with the wind howling through their home.

Australians want better performing old wooden windows. At least they would, if someone could help them.

Co-founder · Sealasash
John is from Tasmania and came to windows from a background in environmental sustainability. That thinking still runs the business: keep the window a house already has, repair it and seal it, rather than throw it out and replace it.

Colm brought the seals. Before moving to Australia he spent years manufacturing and supplying seals to the window and door industry in Ireland and the UK. The draught-sealing systems Sealasash fits, and Sellaseal sells, grew out of that know-how. Pictured in 2011 with an old sash window at the tip shop.
Business Manager, Sellaseal · Procurement, Sealasash
Harrison runs Sellaseal day to day, and he has a real drive for customer service and problem solving. He grew up around tradespeople and has a passion for anything hands-on: if it can be tinkered with, taken apart or made to work better, he is into it. His background is in customer service and in developing 3D products and solutions. He is also the procurement manager for Sealasash, so he keeps a close eye on the relationships at both ends, with the suppliers who make our products and the customers who use them. When you ring about an odd-shaped gap or a seal that will not sit right, Harrison is the one who works out what fits.
