It all starts with a consultation
At Unicorn Windows, we pride ourselves on getting to grips with our client’s wants and needs. This way, they can enjoy the well-known benefits and the hidden perks of window replacement, as well as a seamless installation. We have experience working with developers and residents alike, and start every window replacement with a detailed consultation. It’s the best way of understanding our clients’ unique requirements.
The consultation phase doesn’t end there. Our team work closely with architects and specifiers to ensure the highest standard of service every step of the way, from initial consultation and site survey, to installation and aftercare.
Full project management and planning
Using the information gathered during the consultation phase, and throughout the entirety of the project, we are able to fully manage and plan a window replacement that suits your needs, timescale and budget. Our full project planning management service includes pre-contract meetings, progress reporting, resident liaison meetings, surveying, scheduling of works and key performance indicator measures.
Communication is the key to what we do here at Unicorn Windows, and throughout the work schedule we liaise with clients, residents, contractors and other supply chain members to ensure window replacement can be achieved with everyone’s best interests at heart.
We don’t clock off after installation is complete
Unlike many installers of PVC-U and aluminium windows, we don’t end contact with our clients once installation has been completed. Our aftercare and support service is a highly valued part of our company, and the reason why we have thousands of happy customers to date. Our team complete post-inspection checks after installation, delivering key support to not just the clients who have enlisted us but all those affected by works, such as other residents.
