Installation
experience
ISteel has a wealth of experience in the installation of glass and steel, with thousands of satisfied customers in every major town and city in the UK.
After undertaking a thorough, professional survey we re-confirm all the details to you, including any variation in price. The way we work is transparent. We want to make sure that you know exactly what we will supply & install and how much it will cost.
If you wish to place an order, we require 50% deposit at which point we can arrange a survey.
All works will be carried out during normal working hours (8AM-4:30PM Monday to Friday). We can work outside of these hours on request. Out of hours charges will apply and will always be confirmed and agreed with you prior to doing so. Site specific Method Statements and Risk Assessments are available on request, following the site survey.
iSteel works closely with you and keep in close communication throughout the installation period. Here are some more specific details about how we work, to help with your planning for the new partitioning. If you have any questions or would like one of our friendly team to take you through it, just give us a call at any time.
The installation of iSteel products cannot take place until the site is free of all construction works and is dust free. Failure to ensure this will delay the installation and iSteel cannot be deemed to be responsible. Additional charges may be issued if our fitters cannot start work on the dates agreed. The frame work typically will be fabricated square (unless the design requests otherwise), to facilitate both the measure and installation of the glazing and door sets. Framework will be installed straight, using packers where necessary. Any gaps will be closed with mastic or trims.
To fix perimeter framework and potentially door pivots, we will need to mechanically drill and fix into your floor, ceilings and walls. Our experienced fitters will take the greatest of care, but we cannot be held responsible for damage to any concealed services or any resulting damage to the building, decoration, equipment or furniture. Therefore, the exact positions of pipework and cables etc, must be advised and marked by others prior to us fitting the iSteel framework. We also advise that it is your responsibility to establish the load bearing capacity of any floors or overhead structures onto which this equipment is to be installed. We do not include for any investigation, this is the clients responsibility to advise iSteel. Any necessary above ceiling works need to be designed and carried out by others.
Once the frame is fixed and secure we then install the glazing. Our fitters are clean and tidy and will clear away any waste. Our quotation is based upon you providing free of charge facilities for us to dispose of any materials arising at your site. Alternatively, if it is necessary for us to hire 8 cubic yard size waste skips, this would be charged at £250 + VAT each, extra to the price quoted. Please inform us prior to work commencing if we will be required to hire waste skips.
Our quotation, acceptance of an order and installation is based on the assumption that you have applied for and received Local Building Regulation approval, where required. We have also assumed that at the enquiry stage you will have informed us of the presence of any Asbestos in any part of your premises and provided us with sight of any Asbestos register, so that we can assess for risk before we commence any work in your building. All variations to an order or alterations after our site survey are subject to a separate quotation and will require an official instruction.
