Our school has previously had numerous canopies built around it with different companies and sub-contractors involved, but Clovis has provided the most skillful and effective workforce to date! I would thoroughly recommend you to other schools! Congratulations and thank you for a job well done.

Carole Allan - School Business Manager, Churchfields Infants' School

Crosby-on-Eden Primary School has just had one of your canopies fitted over an outside play area for the reception and nursery classroom. I wish you to know that this is the most superb structure and exactly what we wanted. It is very stylish and has been greatly admired by governors, staff, children and parents. I also want to tell you that the help we received from Douglas Cox has been exceptional. I also want you to know that Warren & Anthony who came to carry out the work were the most pleasant, helpful, efficient and ‘warm’ workman that I have had the pleasure of working with. I am sure you will let them know of my gratitude to them and, of course, your company.

M Briggs, Chairman of Governors, Crosby-on-Eden Primary

I am writing to say how pleased we are with the new canopies which you recently installed at our school. The whole process, from initial visit to completion, was carried out most professionally with minimal disruption to school life. The installation team were courteous and helpful and took great care to ensure that the site was left clear and tidy. We are all delighted with our new facility, which is a massive improvement on what we had before. Thank you once again.
