Can you price remedial work in Exeter from another company's report?

Yes. Send the report and we will price each line for your building in Exeter, or revisit specific doors if the report lacks detail.

When the leaf or frame is too damaged to repair within what its test evidence allows, when there is no evidence it is a fire door, or when the repair would cost more than a new doorset.
