Cranbrook Sash Window Replacements
Sash Windows specified for new-build estates from the 2010s onwards in Cranbrook — surveyed in person, priced in writing.
How we approach sash windows in EX5
Every Cranbrook sash windows enquiry gets the same first question from us: what are the frames actually doing? For estate homeowners here the answer usually lands on original-fit estate upvc chalking on south-facing aspects or homeowners wanting a colour change before they've owned the house ten years — and the spec follows from that, not the other way round.
From the EX5 centre out to the south-west edge facing Topsham, Cranbrook rewards a slower survey. We spend the time up front so a sash replacement lands right first time for estate homeowners.
Word travels in a village fringe. Most of our Cranbrook sash windows work now comes from previous customers in Rockbeare, Broadclyst and the EX5 streets around them, which keeps us honest about what we promise.
A sash windows project in Cranbrook normally starts with a site visit inside a week. Our EX5 rounds already take in Topsham (5 mi south-west), Exeter (6 mi west), Ottery St Mary (6 mi east), so measuring, photographing and quoting costs you no waiting.
Coverage from this quote radius reaches Topsham (5 mi south-west), Exeter (6 mi west), Ottery St Mary (6 mi east), Exminster (6 mi south-west), Cullompton (8 mi north), giving us efficient runs whenever we're already on-site in Cranbrook.
A typical run to Cranbrook threads Topsham → Exeter → Ottery St Mary → Exminster, so if you're on one of those routes we can often combine visits and price accordingly.
Every Cranbrook install carries a 10-year workmanship warranty and manufacturer sealed-unit cover to 20 years. We register the paperwork for you, and at 0 miles via the A30 a warranty call-out is a short trip rather than an argument.
Adjustments settle in the first few months as frames bed. We diary a check for Cranbrook jobs, combining it with whatever else we have on between Topsham and Ottery St Mary so it costs you nothing.

Will spraying void any developer warranty?
We can supply a coating spec to share with developer warranty providers; a properly applied 2-pack coating doesn't compromise the underlying frame.

Not at all — Cranbrook is roughly 0 miles down the A30, and we batch nearby jobs in Topsham and Exeter, so small jobs are still worth our while.
