Online Survey

The property was well-suited for canopy installation, with a sturdy brick wall over 2 meters high. The main concern was the boiler flue, which necessitated an extension to reroute exhaust above the canopy level. The visible downpipes indicated that rainwater could be efficiently directed to existing soil pipes. The property was suitable for a GRP Cantilever Canopy.

After Installation 

The property now features a professionally installed white GRP canopy, harmonising with the home's exterior and providing the desired security and aesthetic benefits.
