Why Saffron Walden properties choose Starlink
Saffron Walden is overwhelmingly older stock — Tudor, Georgian, Victorian — and the villages around it (Newport, Wendens Ambo, Ashdon, Radwinter, Clavering) often have no realistic fibre date. Period buildings need a careful hand: chimney pole mounts that don't damage soft mortar, cable routes that follow existing service lines, and sympathetic colour matching where the bracket is visible. Many of our CB jobs are listed or in conservation areas, so we always discuss placement with the homeowner first.
