Common questions in Hertfordshire
Can you fit just one door in St Albans?
Yes — from a single door to a full building. Where possible, small jobs are scheduled alongside other visits in Hertfordshire.
Do you remove the old doors?
Yes. Removal and disposal of the old door and frame is included when we replace a doorset in St Albans.
How quickly can you survey in St Albans?
We arrange surveys around your access needs and, where possible, combine St Albans visits with other work in Hertfordshire. Tell us your preferred dates when you enquire.
Can I fit my own new front door to my flat?
Only with a doorset that meets the building's fire and smoke requirements, and usually with the freeholder's consent. A non-compliant replacement can put the whole building at risk.
