This privately owned business was established in 1991 and was was one of the first trade fabricators to seek and offer a quick turn round on orders of PVCu windows/doors and all conservatory needs. They have grown steadily over the years and tarde on a “supply only” basis to local builders, joiners, PVC fitters and Builders Merchants. They have built up an enviable reputation for honesty, integrity with first class customer service supplying high quality products. The company have a stable customer base and have retained many customers since their first years of trading, underlining how serious they take their customers needs.
The company has a skilled and dedicated team of staff, many of which have been with them for a number of years, helping the company to achieve excellent continuity and quality of supply. They are accredited and have a BSI license, and have achieved BSEN1279 part 2 and ISO 9001. All glazing products are manufactured to European Kite Standard from K Glass and Pilkington materials specifically to customers specifications and designs.
The business operates from a modern factory and offices on a trading estate in the North Yorkshire area and has up to date machinery and equipment that you would expect of a company of their stature. They have a database of circa 300 regular customers most of which are within a 50 mile radius of the factory.
This is a well run, profitable operation with a solid and established name. They have regular repeat customers with continual work in progess and have continued to do well, up to date, through the recession. This would be a perfect bolt on company for someone looking for a satelite operation in North Yorkshire or for a company to build upon the strengths that the owner has built up within the past years. There is room for expansion within the current set up and opportunities for immediate cost savings and growth exist.
