For projects in Braintree, our process is the same as everywhere else we work: a free on-site survey, a written quote within 72 hours, and a fixed price (no padded hours, no surprise extras). Once the spec is agreed, fabrication takes 2–3 weeks for standard aluminium, longer for hardwood or bespoke colour. On-site fit is typically 1–2 days for a standard frontage.
