Are you a franchise with subcontract staff?
No, we are not a franchise with subcontract staff. We are one of only a very few companies in the UK that are true conservatory blinds specialists without being tied to any parent company or single blind system.
Despite being located all around the country, our surveyors and installers are full time salaried employees with company vans, tools, etc. and we have full time salespeople.
Subcontractors are the "norm" in the conservatory blind industry simply because very few retailers actually specialise in conservatory blinds on a full time basis (despite what they lead you to believe).
In past experience we have found that subcontract fitters do not necessarily work out as being good value for money. You cannot control the quality of workmanship, availability for work, experience in specialist conservatories, or even the customer service being provided. This is why we have a full-time employed installation team.
We are the largest family owned conservatory blinds specialists in the country and even rival the larger direct-sales companies when you consider the area that we cover. We therefore do not need to have part-time subcontract staff.
