For many years, I worked at the heart of the construction industry as Managing Director of a company supplying specialist External Door Technicians to projects of all sizes. We were never the largest team—but we were the team trusted to get the job done right.

With over a decade of hands-on experience, I developed a proven approach that enabled us to install more than 10,000 doors to the highest standard. During this time, I founded the Door Fitting Academy and introduced the “Door Health Check,” helping to ensure doors were fully prepared before homeowners moved in.

Across a 14-year career in the door industry, I saw first-hand how defects can impact new homes—leading to stress, unexpected costs, and ongoing problems.
