New garage doors for Pontypridd homes

Around here that usually means a long rows of valley terraces with stone fronts where the original frames have given up. We work right across CF37 and CF38 — Treforest, Graig, Cilfynydd and the surrounding streets — typically arriving via A470. Old door and frame removed, new sub-frame packed square to the reveal, tracks bolted through masonry, motor wired to a fused spur and set-and-forget limits.

Commercial premises, offices and managed sites
Buying garage doors as commercial premises, offices and managed sites
This page covers commercial rather than domestic work. Access, out of hours working and keeping the premises trading through the installation are the constraints that shape the quote.
The things worth checking before you accept a price
- Risk assessments and method statements supplied before mobilisation
- Access equipment planned for upper floors and awkward elevations
- The lead fitter photographs the reveal condition before the old frame comes out and shares those photos with the office.
- The crew asks the client where the kettle lives before they set up so tea gets made rather than negotiated.

What we typically find on garage doors surveys around here

- ·The composite door skin has a UV bloom on the south-facing elevation that no longer matches the colour on the shaded elevation.
- ·The frame drainage on a south-facing bathroom window is blocked with paint film from the exterior repaint.
- ·The bottom hinge on the front door has torn its top screw fixing free of the frame.
- ·A previous fitter foam-filled the reveal gap directly against the frame, and the foam has now pushed the jamb inward.
- ·The porch canopy has been leaking directly onto the top of the door for years — the top edge of the slab is soft.
- ·The internal beadwork has been painted so many times the mitres are unrecognisable.
- ·The multipoint deadbolt still throws but the top hook has stopped catching and no one has noticed for months.
- ·One of the sealed units carries the previous installer's phone number etched on the aluminium spacer bar.
- ·The window boards inside are chipboard, swollen at the edges from years of trickle condensation.
- ·The old aluminium sliding door has a cracked head roller that pulls the door out of parallel with the frame.
- ·The gasket at the vent has perished and pulled away from its channel in two-inch sections.
- ·A previous fitter drilled through the outer frame chamber for the trickle vent — never fully sealed the drilling.
- ·The concrete cill under the door has heaved by 3mm across the two-metre span, tilting the whole threshold.
- ·The cill drainage caps on a north-facing elevation are frozen in place with layered moss.
- ·The internal locking cams on the multipoint have been ground down by a mismatched keep pattern.

How our fitters actually do the work
- ·The bead-in tools are rubber-faced, not steel — a steel tool marks the profile within minutes.
- ·The client's Wi-Fi router near the door is checked for a signal drop after the composite slab is fitted — a rare case, but worth confirming.
- ·The finished elevation is photographed from the pavement and uploaded to the office job file as sign-off record.
- ·The wall around the frame is Hoovered before the client sees the room again — brick dust ages a first impression.
- ·The crew takes the old glass off site in a labelled sack that day, not a skip left on the drive.
- ·The internal skirting is protected with a strip of packing tape across the top edge before any tool touches it.
- ·The threshold is bedded on butyl mastic under the outer skin, giving the fitter a second waterproof line behind the perimeter silicone.
- ·The gasket at the corner mitre is butt-jointed with a fresh knife cut, not stretched and hoped.
- ·The multipoint hooks are lubed with the manufacturer's grease, not household oil that dries and gums.
- ·The mitre joins on any Georgian bar are picked to face the corner that is least visible from indoors.
- ·The bay-corner post gets a structural bracket into masonry, not a token fixing into the outer frame.
- ·The old keys are collected and destroyed, not left in a bag on the drive.
- ·The keeps for the multipoint are set with a strike plate template, not marked by eye against the closed door.
- ·The perimeter tape between frame and reveal is a compressible foam tape, not a plain butyl strip.
- ·The old cylinder is disposed of by the crew, not left in a bag on the drive for the client to bin.
- ·The glass has a factory kite mark visible at handover — not scraped off by a lazy cleaner during the fitting hour.

Faults we fix before recommending garage doors
Fog between the panes means the sealed unit has failed — the glass can usually be swapped without touching the frame.
A draught is usually a compression problem — gasket, hinge or seal — long before it's a reason to replace the window.
Which face the water sits on tells you everything: inside is ventilation, between the panes is a failed unit, outside is normal physics.
A door that needs lifting, shoving or a second attempt to lock is warning you before the gearbox fails completely.
