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.

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.
