We are members of the Ultra Installer Scheme
What is the Ultra Installer Scheme?
The Ultra Installer Scheme by Ultraframe is designed to help homeowners find trusted, high-quality installers for their home improvement projects. Since 2004, the scheme has connected homeowners with carefully selected local companies that are experts in fitting Ultraframe’s industry-leading conservatory and extension roofing systems.
Every Ultra Installer goes through a thorough assessment before joining the scheme, and they continue to be regularly reviewed. This ensures they maintain the highest standards in everything from customer service to the quality of their installations.
Why is it Good for Homeowners?
Choosing an Ultra Installer gives homeowners peace of mind. You’re not just hiring any company – you’re choosing a professional who has been independently vetted for their workmanship, customer service, and reliability. Ultra Installers are committed to delivering exceptional quality and service at every stage, from your first enquiry to aftercare once the work is complete.
Plus, being part of the Ultra Installer Scheme means we have direct access to Ultraframe’s support and training, keeping us up to date with the latest products and techniques. It’s a simple way to ensure your conservatory, orangery, extension, or garden room is built to last – and built beautifully.
