Property styles in Crawley
Crawley's housing mix includes postwar semis and terraces across the New Town neighbourhoods, Victorian and Edwardian houses around the older Ifield and Southgate areas, and newer estate housing on the town's edges. Many properties are well suited to rear or side-return extensions where garden depth allows, and loft conversions are common in the older stock.
Planning considerations
Crawley Borough Council is the local planning authority. Ifield village and parts of the old town centre fall within conservation areas, which affects permitted development rights and materials on visible elevations. Properties near Gatwick Airport may also be subject to safeguarding or noise-related planning considerations, which we check at feasibility stage.

Who is responsible for maintaining fire doors after installation?

We fit doors correctly at installation and can include periodic checks in a maintenance contract, but day-to-day responsibility sits with the responsible person.
What rating of fire door do I need?
This depends on the building's fire risk assessment and means of escape strategy — commonly FD30 or FD60 — rather than being assumed. We install to the rating specified in your assessment.
