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’d like to take this opportunity to say a huge ‘thank you’ to everyone at your firm, for the patience and professionalism that has been shown to use here at the school, bearing in mind the length of time it has taken for this project to be completed!! The end result is fantastic. The build and finish are of high quality and already on our first day back at school we have received many compliments. On a personal note my headteacher, Elaine Cooper, would like to pass on her personal praise for the workmen that installed the canopy during August, they worked really hard and were always professional. Thank you. I will have no hesitation in recommending you to other schools in the area.

F Girdler, School Business Manager, The Horsell Village School
