Questions about communal fire doors in Ely

Will I get certificates for the doors fitted in Ely?

Every doorset is listed in your handover pack with the manufacturer's certificate reference, plus an installation record and photos.

Do you work for landlords and managing agents in Ely?

Yes. We can schedule doors flat by flat, send quotes per property and invoice the managing agent or freeholder.

How quickly can you survey in Ely?

We arrange surveys around your access needs and, where possible, combine Ely visits with other work in Cambridgeshire. Tell us your preferred dates when you enquire.
