If you intend to purchase a conservatory this summer then you will be well aware of just how much of a financial extravagance it can be. Few home improvements can rival a conservatory in terms of cost, apart maybe from the orangery which offers many of the same attributes at a higher price.
With so much money at stake you need to be certain that you choose the right type of installer, as you could otherwise be placing your investment at risk. Here’s how you should go about picking an installer you can put your trust in:
Friends and family
Word-of-mouth is a great way of finding out about a local installer of conservatories in Manchester, conservatories in Bury or conservatories in Merseyside. Speak to those your closest to and see whether they could recommend a particular firm they have used in the past.
Multiple quotes
Never settle for the first quote you receive and if a quote seems too good to be true than it usually is. Obtain three or four quotes so that you can get a better idea of how much you can expect to pay for your conservatory. Once you settle on a quote try haggling with the dealer to see if they can bring the price down further.
Guarantee
Make sure that your conservatory is covered by an extended guarantee so that if anything ever goes wrong you can call upon your installer to fix it. This will give you added peace of mind and ensure you get value for money.
Accredited
There are various accrediting bodies associated with the glass and glazing industry so check that the firm you choose is a member of one of them. Bodies such as FENSA, GGF, DGCOS, TGO etc. should be on display on any good home improvement company’s marketing material.
