General Specifications

Surveys:

We normally charge a fee of £50.00 including VAT for a survey. During the survey we will provide you with valuable advice on the state of repair of your conservatory, with suggestions if necessary as to how it may be improved or work that may be required. We will then provide you with a full written quotation as necessary.
The survey is fully deductible from the cost of any work that we may carry out for you
