Probus: a village upgrade built around longevity, not weather drama
By Cornwall Composite Doors · 25 August 1969 · 4 min read
Probus sits well inland near Trewithen Gardens, so a new composite door here is chosen for lasting performance rather than storm resistance.
A settled village away from the coast
Probus is one of the more inland villages we cover, sitting near Trewithen Gardens between Truro and the Roseland peninsula, and its weather is a good deal gentler than the coastal towns further out. TR2 housing here includes some attractive village-centre properties near Probus Church alongside more recent development, none of which needs the marine-grade specification we'd use on the coast.
What drives replacement in Probus
Probus customers most often come to us with a door that's simply reached the end of its useful life — a timber door that's needed one repaint too many, or an older uPVC door whose lock mechanism has started to fail. The case for composite here is straightforward: no repainting, no swelling, and a security rating that doesn't degrade over the decade-long guarantee period, regardless of how gently the local weather treats the door.
Styles that suit the village
Around the village centre, traditional panelled composite doors in Chartwell Green or cream suit the older properties near the church well, while more recent development on the outskirts takes a broader range of colours including anthracite grey and black.
Part of our wider Roseland-approach round
Probus sits conveniently between Truro, Tregony and Grampound, and we cover it on the same surveying round as those villages, giving Probus homeowners the same responsiveness and pricing as anywhere closer to town.
