coastal homeowners in Seaton tend to compare us against fitters based further afield in Honiton (8 mi north-west). We're closer, we survey in person, and our timber windows spec is calibrated for coastal town conditions — not a generic Devon template.
Seaton enquiries usually cluster around replacing tired frames on a rendered victorian seafront terraces with a-rated units matched to the street. That's a familiar brief for us — we fit across EX12 constantly — and the A3052 keeps site visits inside a normal working morning from Cranbrook.
Drive time from Cranbrook to Seaton runs at about 15 miles via the A3052, taking in Axminster (6 mi north-east) and Lyme Regis (6 mi east) on the way. We use the same run for Sidmouth (7 mi west) jobs, which is why we can price small timber windows openings sensibly.
Coverage from this quote radius reaches Axminster (6 mi north-east), Lyme Regis (6 mi east), Sidmouth (7 mi west), Honiton (8 mi north-west), Ottery St Mary (10 mi west), giving us efficient runs whenever we're already on-site in Seaton.
A typical run to Seaton threads Axminster → Lyme Regis → Sidmouth → Honiton, so if you're on one of those routes we can often combine visits and price accordingly.
