Our Newtownards supply and fit service
For landlords, managing agents, businesses and homeowners in Newtownards, we provide fire doors for schools, surgeries and care homes with one fixed quote. A free survey comes first, then a door-by-door schedule, then installation to the manufacturer's instructions and a handover pack for your records.
Where possible we combine Newtownards surveys with other visits in County Down, such as Bangor and Castlereagh, which helps keep survey dates flexible.
