Exeter FAQs
Do you cover the Cranbrook and Tithebarn Lane new-builds?
Yes — we do a lot of work on the eastern edge of Exeter, including spraying ten-year-old new-builds whose original white uPVC has gone chalky.
Can you work around Cathedral Quarter conservation rules?
We can. For listed and conservation-area properties we typically recommend on-site spraying or slim-sightline timber-effect units, and we can talk you through what's likely to be acceptable before you apply.
Is Exeter a long trip for a single window?
Not at all — Exeter is roughly 6 miles down the M5 (J29/J30), and we batch nearby jobs in Exminster and Topsham, so small jobs are still worth our while.

Yes, EX1 is core territory for us. We're between Exminster and Cranbrook, so Exeter is an easy run.
