One Of The Most Common Questions We Receive
It’s perfectly natural to ask:
“How long will installation take?”
Unfortunately, there isn’t a single answer.
Every project is different.
However, understanding what influences installation times can help set realistic expectations.
The Honest Answer
The time required depends on:
- The Product
- The Property
- The Installation Requirements
- Access
- Additional Features
- Weather Conditions
Some projects can be completed relatively quickly.
Others require additional planning and installation time.
Product Type Makes A Difference
Different systems naturally require different installation approaches.
For example:
- Traditional Awnings
- Plaza Viva Systems
- Pergotex II Structures
- Lighting Integration
- Heating Integration
- Automation Systems
All involve different levels of complexity.
Access Can Influence Timescales
One factor often overlooked is access.
Questions may include:
- Is The Installation Easily Accessible?
- Is Specialist Equipment Required?
- Is The Installation Above A Conservatory?
- Is Scaffolding Required?
- Are There Site Restrictions?
These practical considerations often influence planning and installation requirements.
Preparation Matters
One reason we place so much emphasis on surveys is because preparation leads to smoother installations.
Understanding the project in advance allows us to:
- Plan Effectively
- Prepare Equipment
- Anticipate Challenges
- Reduce Delays
Good preparation benefits everyone.
Quality Is More Important Than Speed
Whilst everyone likes projects completed efficiently, our priority is always doing the job properly.
- Careful installation.
- Thorough testing.
- Attention to detail.
These are far more important than rushing.
Every Project Gets The Time It Deserves
We don’t believe in cutting corners.
The objective is to deliver a finished installation that performs correctly, looks right and provides years of enjoyment.
Sometimes that means taking the time required to do things properly.
What We’ll Tell You During The Survey
Once we’ve assessed the property and understood the project, we’ll be able to provide a much clearer indication of what to expect.
This includes:
- Installation Planning
- Timescales
- Access Requirements
- Any Special Considerations
You’ll know exactly where you stand.
Our Advice
Focus less on how quickly the installation can be completed and more on the quality of the finished result.
The best projects are the ones that are done properly.
