What a splendid job

"Had a new P shaped conservatory roof installed, not the easiest shape or incline. However work was completed on time workmen extremely good clean and courteous. Roof is of very good quality.

New Conservatory Roof

"Dream Installations recently completed a complete new conservatory roof for my 'P' shaped conservatory roof. The roof is a difficult shape and because of the large size needed two of the roof joists to be made stronger. All work was undertaken very quickly. I was very pleased with the excellent quality of the roof, the installation which was fitted without any problems, the roof fitted the conservatory exactly."

A little later we got a definite date and prior to fitting a reminder phone call to confirm we were ready. The windows were fitted speedily were exactly what I wanted and for a fair price."
