Has Anyone Tried Replacing Door and Window Seals?

With something like this: https://www.screwfix.com/p/stormguard-upvc-door-window-seal-black-20m/89084

It seems pretty expensive as 20m won't go that far if you want to replace the seals on a couple of doors but wondering igf it helped with drafts?
Some of ours are pretty old and a little flakey although many do create a pretty good seal, but I can still feel a tiny bit of cold between the frame and the window.

Cheers for pointers.
Don't assume - just answer the question as best you can with the information you have.

  • I didn't directly replace the seals but I did use this stuff which eliminated all noise and draughts from degraded seals....

    How easy it is will depend how common the old seals were/are... not sure what happened to our front door but 75% of the seal is missing and whats left is badly degraded. Unfortunately not found any other seals with a profile thats anything like the original and whilst I've found places that will make a replacement the minimum order is a probably enough to do the whole block rather just out front door.
