FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Will our concerns over children and staff safety be addressed prior to installation?: We have been working within schools for many years. All contractors are Clovis approved and CRB checked. Full risk assessments are carried out prior to starting installation taking into consideration your requirements and safety fencing is erected wherever needed at no additional charge.
Are your canopies usable all year in all weathers?: Yes unlike some solutions that need to be taken down in the winter or during high winds our canopies are designed to be useable all year round. The cladding materials as well as providing shade are also waterproof so that they can be used during wet weather.
How are the fabric sheets attached to the framework?: Fabric sheets are securely attached all round using an aluminium cladding rail system, which has been tried, tested and proven for over 30 years.
What are Building Regulations and will they affect me?: In relation to our canopies Building Regulations specify the standard to which they should be built i.e. strength, fire rating of materials etc. Again it is advisable to contact your local Building Control officer(s), as a rule of thumb any canopy over 30m2 will require conformity to building regulations and an application will need to be made although this figure can be lower. Most of our structures are supplied conforming to the requirements for these regulations as standard and generic sets of structural calculations can be supplied free of charge to demonstrate to Building Control the integrity of the proposed structure and foundations.

We have been very satisfied with the work. The installers have respected the work going on within the centre and have worked around us. We would highly recommend Clovis for standard of service.

S Warner, Little Forest Children's Centre

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

The two engineers that were working on the installation were extremely professional and we had no issues during installation - very well done, looks terrific!
