Testimonials

Below is a selection of testimonials from some of Apropos' satisfied clients:

Efficient, sociable and very good

“It all looks very good [a bespoke dormer window] and having the sliding/folding window was definitely worth the additional cost. Your workmen were very efficient and sociable. They arrived at 8am and finished just as it was getting dark.”

Mr. Price, Somerset

Proud of award-winning relationship

“Having worked closely with the team at Apropos on previous projects it was an honour to be asked to share their stand at this year's Grand Designs Live. The bespoke structures designed and created by Apropos represent the very highest quality, and we are very proud of our award-winning relationship with them.”

Tom Mulroy, Calderpeel Architects

Care, attention to detail, skill and commitment is faultless

"We made our initial enquiry in June. It is now the first week of November and we have our orangery complete with weeks to go before Christmas!

"From the initial design/sales meeting, to construction, to finish, Apropos and their build team have done everything we have asked of them and in so much less time than we thought possible.

"Our property is over 100 years old and our 6 x 3.5metre orangey is a perfect addition. From the outside it complements the older structure with timeless design and from inside the classically styled roof lantern adds another dimension to our living space, with the modern folding glass doors flooding the house with light.

"We have reconfigured our kitchen and dining room into one large open plan space with the orangery connecting to this at the rear. Although a separate project, Apropos have considered and often advised us on everything else we had planned and how best to coordinate its schedule with theirs.

"We had a choice of using our own builders or theirs and I am glad we used theirs. Everyone has been polite, efficient, hard working and with a much needed sense of humour. Their care and attention to detail has been faultless as well as their skill and commitment to the project.

"The Apropos products (roof lantern and doors) are top quality. They are not the cheapest in the market, but you are paying for a genuinely bespoke construction as well as the smallest possible frame system (and therefore largest glass area) you can buy; which really does make a big difference to the finished product. The Apropos orangery is not a run of the mill conservatory. It is a significant part of our internal and external architecture and certainly not a cheap 'add-on'.

"We would certainly recommend Apropos for their design, product, service and project management."

Mr. & Mrs. Wright, Over, Cambridgeshire

For quality Apropos wins hands down!

“The engagement, project management and after care support with Apropos was extremely professional. The services and installation teams were excellent and of the highest standard. The construction/building company that worked with Apropos were second to none and the final product is of the highest standard.

“The finished article is first class and I would highly recommend Apropos to anyone. I am a true believer of 'you get what you pay for' and if you want quality then Apropos win hands down!”

Mr. T. Alexander, Cheshire

They were wonderful

"The [Apropos] team have now finished the job. They were wonderful... Not only did they fix the down pipe well but also moved the original to the other end of the guttering. This was such a help because it is all done now and I have a self-watering section at that end of the pipe which will do my rose bush a lot of good. I do hope you will pass on my message to the boss... they have earned a prize this week!"

Mrs. Woolhouse, Cambridge

Pleasing alternative design ideas

"Brendan was very helpful in providing alternative design ideas. He clearly explains what is suitable for your particular requirements and is full of energy in explaining what design enhances your property. We are very pleased with Brendan’s final design and we now spend the majority of our time in our new living space which is extremely airy, light and seamless with the garden."

Mr. & Mrs. McAllister, London N10

Extremely helpful throughout

"We are very pleased with the roof for our extension. The fitting was trouble free and very efficient. We have found all the employees from Apropos extremely helpful throughout."

Mr. & Mrs. T. Whelan, Bolton

Prepared to go that extra mile

"You made it all so easy - being on an island we are at the mercy of any company prepared to come here. All of your staff at all levels are a credit to your company. Thank you."

Mr. J. Moore, Isle of Man

Wonderful experience

"Everyone was very professional and very nice. Wonderful experience."

Oguz Family, Mayfair, London

Very professional company

"Could have gone for a much cheaper product but like the quality of Apropos having seen an installation at a local Farmhouse. Expensive but we believe worth it. Very professional company, good technical support and good staff."

Mrs. Robin, Leicestershire

The impossible made possible

"Apropos were fantastic in coming up with a bespoke design for our top floor conservatory. They took on a seemingly impossible task and came up with a workable solution. Their recommended builder provided an excellent finish and also worked with us to further improve the bespoke design."

Mr. B. Aumuller, Putney

Hopes fully realised

"We had an ambitious plan for an extension over two storeys, using large glass areas to make the most of our stunning views over Saddleworth. Apropos have created structures fully realising our hopes."

Dr. M. Dobson, Saddleworth

Fantastic service, excellent support, hardworking staff

"Very professional Company. Service and technical support excellent, delivery men and installation team worked very hard and quickly, had the structure in place without any trouble. Overall effect was fantastic and worth the money."

Mr. & Mrs. Matthews, Kent

Delighted with sturdiness of new conservatory for period cottage

"We have been slowly and carefully updating a cottage to a high standard. What we felt it needed was a small conservatory that would double as a utility room. The space was there but it was awkward because of the irregularity of the old existing walls. apropos tectonic came up with the perfect solution. We now have a room that lets in all the early morning light and is just the place for a collection of plants and for concealing the boiler, the washing machine and the dryer. As an addition to the cottage it looks appropriately twenty-first century, rather than olde worlde."

"Our builder, a man of sound judgment who has been working for us for nineteen years, commented on the sturdiness and quality of the basic structure. We are delighted with the style of our new conservatory and the way that it functions."

Scott Carlton, Bristol

Innovative, modern extension for 17th century farmhouse

"Apropos provided exceptional advice and service throughout the project from initial design to completion of the glass structure. They worked with us to create an innovative modern extension that blends perfectly with our 17th century farmhouse"

Mr. & Mrs. James, North Yorkshire

Five years on and still beautiful

“My Apropos conservatory is as beautiful today as when it was first constructed nearly five years ago.”

Mr. Hall, Cleveland

Superbly engineered and second to none

“The service we received from start to finish was second to none. We paid for the best and received the best. The structure is superbly engineered and unlike anything else we have seen or heard of.”

Mr. & Mrs. Bowker, West Yorkshire

A first rate job

“The designer from Apropos interpreted our thoughts perfectly creating a structure that is simple and stunning at the same time. The interaction between our builder and Apropos was seamless and everything went like clockwork. A first rate job.”

Mrs. Mountjoy, Cheshire

Impressed with aftercare service

“I am really pleased with my conservatory and spend lots of time using it. I can’t thank you enough for the efforts made to get the structure up as fast as possible. I was also impressed with your aftercare service. My particular thanks must also go to Jack who did a fabulous job in helping me.”

Dr. J. Brockington, Durham

Exceptional service, fantastic windows

“I am writing to say how impressed we are with our Apropos French Windows. They look fantastic. Our whole experience has been of a professional customer orientated company from start to finish. The fitters worked hard and left the site in pristine condition. Thanks to all your staff for providing such an exceptional service.”

Mr. & Mrs. Axelby, Sheffield
