Safety First

In order to work safely in your home during the COVID-19 pandemic, we have worked to strict social distancing rules and safety in the workplace requirements. With the restrictions having been lifted and the UK Government & Devolved Governments of Scotland & Wales now recommending the 'Living with COVID-19' approach, we have changed some of our practices from June 29th, 2022. We will, however, continue with the following:-


What you can expect from us:

    • Remote sales consultations are available for any Customer that would prefer this method of quotation
    • No-one will be permitted to attend your home if they are presenting with symptoms of COVID-19 until they either test negative or have completed the minimum isolation period
    • All Employees and Associates that visit our Customers’ homes, will carry supplies of face masks and hand sanitiser. They are no longer required to wear a face mask as routine but should do so if you indicate that you would like them to

What we ask from you:

      • Please let us know if you would prefer any of our Employees or Associates to wear a face mask in your home
      • During installation, we use different types of sealants, glues and cleaning materials that are commonly used in the home improvement industry. These are normally only harmful if swallowed or inhaled in large quantities in an unventilated area. If you have any condition that you think may increase your sensitivity to such products, please ensure that you remain outside of the room in which the Installers are working. Safety data sheets are available on request.

Always Improving

We have very high standards in everything that we do – you have chosen to invest in your home by having Everest products installed and you deserve and have every right to expect, these standards to be upheld. If we don’t meet your expectations, we will work to resolve things as quickly as possible and put any corrective actions in place that are needed. We never want to stand still and always strive to be even better tomorrow than we are today. To achieve this, we ensure that we are listening to you by gathering feedback in the following ways and using it to form our continuous improvement plan.

  • If you decide not to purchase with us or cancel your order, we will listen to your feedback.
  • When your installation is taking place, we will contact you to check how things are going.
  • On the day that your installation is completed, we’ll contact you again to check you’re happy.
  • Approximately 14 days after the installation is completed, we’ll ask you to participate in a survey to see how satisfied you are with your entire experience – from the initial consultation appointment through to completion of your installation.
  • We monitor Trustpilot every day to see what our Customers are telling us.
  • We have a clear complaints policy
  • We thoroughly investigate the root cause of any complaints or negative feedback in order to address any issues and provide an even better Customer Experience in the future.
