Frequently asked questions
Around Endcliffe Park: do you work near M1 J33 where parking is restricted?
Yes. Where loading is restricted along M1 J33 we arrange an early delivery slot and stage materials in the garden, so the install itself is not queued behind traffic.
What's the biggest free-standing size?
Single-span up to about 6m × 5m on four posts. Larger goes to six posts or a multi-bay layout, worked out at survey stage.
Can I run power to the frame?
Yes, a garden spur from your consumer unit lets us wire LED, heaters and USB points into the frame. We co-ordinate with your electrician.
For a stone-built terraces climbing Nether Edge and Crookes: how long does a free-standing veranda install take in Sheffield?
Typical installs run one to three days on site once materials are made. Anything needing groundworks on a sloping Sheffield garden adds a day, and that is stated on the quote rather than discovered later.
For a new-builds around Waverley and the Advanced Manufacturing Park: can you match the frame colour to existing Sheffield windows?
Yes. Frames are powder-coated to any RAL, and on the survey we take a reference from the existing windows and rainwater goods rather than guessing from a photo.
