Common questions from Wadebridge owners
Should I respray or replace tired uPVC on my Wadebridge home?
Structurally sound frames are usually better sprayed on-site — same colour result for materially less cost. Failed seals or draughts point toward replacement. We survey both routes. A recent Wadebridge example: high-spec aluminium on a padstow second home.
Are triple-glazed upgrades worth it on Wadebridge estate homes?
On exposed plots facing prevailing weather, yes — the marginal spend pays back on heating. On sheltered mid-terrace Wadebridge homes, our A-rated double-glazed spec usually delivers the better cost-benefit. On the refresh side around Rock, wadebridge terrace respray to a heritage cream.
