Getting door installation right in Truro
Doors take more daily wear than any window in the house, so hardware quality and locking mechanism matter as much as the panel material itself. In Truro, that means working with Georgian townhouses around the cathedral and Lemon Street, with Victorian terraces further out. Cornwall’s damp, salt-laden coastal climate means seals and drainage matter more here than inland, even this far up the Fal estuary. We quote against the property in front of us rather than a generic price list, so Truro jobs are measured and priced individually.
Why locals choose us
- Multi-point locking as standard, which most home insurers now expect for a valid claim
- Bifold or sliding patio door options where you want to open up a rear elevation onto a garden or patio
- Cornwall’s only city, built on tin-mining wealth and now the county’s administrative centre, which shapes a fair bit of the Truro housing stock we work on
- Hardware and seals chosen with the local salt-air exposure in mind, not just a standard inland spec
- Free, no-obligation quotes with a written price before any work is booked in

Frequently asked questions
Do I need building regulations sign-off for a new door in Truro? Most external door replacements are covered under FENSA or a similar competent-person scheme, which self-certifies the work to building regulations without a separate council application.
How long does a new front door take to fit in Truro? A standard composite or uPVC door replacement is usually a half-day job, including removing the old frame and making good the surrounding brickwork or render.
Is a composite door worth the extra cost over uPVC? For a front door, most people find it is - the solid core gives better security and insulation and holds its colour and shape better over time than a standard uPVC panel door.
