Ordering Your Veranda: Swatches and Sign-off
Ordering a bespoke veranda is a significant decision, and the sample-approval stage is your key to getting exactly the look and feel you want. Using physical swatches and a clear, multi-stage sign-off process ensures that every detail—from frame colour to glass specification—is perfectly defined before it reaches the manufacturing floor, giving you full confidence in your choice.
Why Physical Samples Matter
Colours can look different depending on the material, light, and the finish. Physical powder-coat swatches give you a real, tangible sense of the finish's texture and sheen, helping you make a confident choice that will look great on your house, rather than just on a screen.
The Technical Sign-off Stage
Once you have chosen your options, we provide a final technical drawing for your approval. This document is a scale representation of your project, confirming all dimensions, materials, and features. It is a critical stage—once you have checked and signed off these drawings, your project is officially ready for manufacture.
Reviewing the Order Details
The final order review is your opportunity to check everything—from the frame colour and roof glazing to the details of the lighting and heating system. Being thorough at this stage means that when we arrive to build your structure, it is exactly what you planned and expected.
Moving to Manufacture
After your final sign-off, your project enters the manufacturing queue. We keep you informed about the expected timeline, so you can start preparing your garden and household for the installation date, knowing your structure is in the safe hands of our manufacturing partners.

Common questions
How many samples can I see?
We are happy to provide a selection of the most popular finishes to help you make an informed decision.
What if I notice an error after signing off?
It is vital to check everything thoroughly, as changes after sign-off may be impossible or involve significant redesign costs.
Can I see a sample of the glass?
Yes, we can provide samples or show you examples of our glazing options during your survey.
How long after sign-off does building start?
This depends on current lead times, which we confirm when you place your order, but we aim to keep the process as efficient as possible.
In short
Use physical swatches and a rigorous sign-off process on technical drawings to ensure your veranda order is exactly as you imagined.
