Torbay

Around Paignton.

Paignton is Torbay's family seaside town, with its pier, sandy beaches, the zoo and the steam railway to Kingswear drawing crowds in summer. It has more affordable housing than Torquay and a lot of retired residents alongside young families, with large estates spreading inland. Holiday parks and guest houses create seasonal demand for cleaning, maintenance and repairs. A site that covers Preston, Goodrington and Churston and is clear about year-round availability suits both residents and the tourism trade.

Inside Torbay, the closest places are Torquay (3 miles) and Brixham (4 miles). Just over the council boundary, Totnes (5 miles), Dartmouth (6 miles), Newton Abbot (7 miles) and Kingsteignton (8 miles) are close by. A list of the places you really serve is more useful to a customer than “and surrounding areas”.

Within Paignton itself, we build for businesses in Preston, Goodrington, Churston Ferrers, Collaton St Mary, Roselands, Blagdon and Broadsands.

Paignton addresses fall in the TQ postcode area, about 20 miles south of Exeter, where we are based.
