What should Ely homeowners know about woodgrain sectional doors?
Why not a real timber sectional door?
Real timber sectional doors exist and look superb, but timber moves with the seasons and needs regular finishing. A woodgrain-effect steel door keeps its colour and shape with only an occasional wash.
Which effects are popular?
Golden oak suits cottages and brick homes, darker walnut and rosewood suit stone and render, and grey-washed effects work on contemporary houses.

Questions from Ely customers
Does a woodgrain door need varnishing?
No. It is a factory finish on steel, so it only needs washing.
Can I get a real timber sectional door?
Timber sectional doors are available from some makers. We can quote, but they need regular finishing to stay in good condition.
Which parts of Ely do you cover?
We cover Ely across postcode districts CB6, along with nearby Newmarket, March and Cambridge. Dates are agreed when you book.
Will the local district or borough council need to approve my new garage door?
Usually not. Replacing a garage door, including with an electric sectional door, does not normally need planning permission in England unless the house is listed, in a conservation area or Article 4 area, or has planning conditions affecting the garage. If in doubt, ask the local district or borough council before ordering.
