‘Even Better Than Expected’

We today received the below review following the installation of our Outdoor Living Pod (OLP) at a new build bungalow in Ipswich, Suffolk. This particular Outdoor Living Pod hardware was custom finished in the same RAL colour (and gloss level) as the properties aluminium window frames to harmoniously integrate it and was fitted with bespoke infill panels (as above photo) to bridge the void between the rear posts and property façade, as due to the lack of eaves height above the doors/window where the OLP was going over, the structure had to be sited in front of the soffit/guttering.

“We have been most impressed with the service that we have received from your company, from the initial consultation right through to the ordering and fitting process of our Outdoor Living Pod. It has proved even better than expected and considerably enhances our property.  We look forward to "needing" the shade it will provide.”

What was particularly nice about this project other than the fact it is just down the road from our head office, is numerous other ‘blinds’ retailers pitched to provide an alternate, cheaper louvered roof terrace shading solution that is currently trying to be sold into the UK market, however, as with all other companies in the exterior shading industry they had limited knowledge of what they were selling (in fact we know the system from the European company they are offering it from better than they do) and our knowledge and experience given that we are the only company in the industry dedicated 100% purely to the field of exterior solar shading was apparent to the client in the way we designed the solution to integrate with their property and whilst we were the dearest, the client could see our offering represented the best value for money based on the service, quality and solution they would / did receive.

If you are looking at providing shade and shelter to enhance the enjoyment and use of your terrace contact us on 0844 800 1947 or email us here to discuss the options and experience the positive difference of dealing with people who care about and know what they are doing and most importantly will provide you with the best, honest advice and solution specifically for your application and requirements.
