Pergola & Veranda Installation

Pergola & Veranda Installation

Installation by our trained team includes the delivery, assembly and bolting down of the pergola or veranda, including any screens & louvered panels. Lead times for installation ranges from 3-6 weeks, and we provide nationwide installs. Please get in touch to check current lead times. Once you’ve placed your order online, we’ll make contact to book a convenient date to install your pergola or veranda. By selecting and paying for our installation service you are agreeing to the pre-installation guide detailed below. If anything in the guide is not adhered to, it may incur an additional fee for our team to return.

Aluminium louvered roof pergola or verandas work on the natural fall of your existing surface to allow the rain to drain meaning a slight fall is necessary. Please take care to ensure you have measured the area correctly and have a flat surface with a max of 1:80 fall (which, by building regulations your patio should already have). For anything more than this, we would need prior notification, as it means we would need to fit the pergola or veranda with packers. Our installers can adjust the legs to sit flat, using spacers up to 50mm; this does not affect your warranty. A 1:80 fall over a distance of 3410mm is 42mm. For best fitting of the deluxe screens a fall of 10mm is best suited to ensure smooth operation, please note that packers or adjustments may be required if the fall is beyond this.

Modifications such as lowering the height of the structure can be achieved, this service is great for areas which cover different levels, steps and walls and is available with an additional fee.

Our team are trained to fix to the following surfaces:

Concrete
Paving slabs
Wood decking
Composite decking
Porcelain tiles

Please see the Ground Fixing Sheet explanatory document for detail.

Please note, for porcelain tiles our team use diamond drill bits and are extremely careful, however please be aware that we cannot be held responsible if tiles are cracked when drilling down, due to how the surface has been laid or where the legs are required to sit close to grout lines. Fixing into porcelain tiles will incur an additional fee, due to the expense of using the correct tools and the added time taken to carefully complete this work.

Our install team are not trained electricians and so for any heater installations, please organise your own local electrician to fit this for you.

Flashing can be added to the Pergola or veranda to create a seal between your property and Pergola or veranda, however this is not part of the design and the installation team can only fit the flashing as best they can to your property. iKapoukis LTD cannot guarantee that it will work on every surface. This is an addition to the pergola or veranda and not part of the pergola or veranda and so is not covered by the warranty.

What Happens if Something Goes Wrong

We have a dedicated team looking after your interests and if there are any issues with your parcel we will work to overcome the problem and obtain a delivery for you.

If your parcel is lost on the route we will endeavour to obtain compensation for you for the insured delivery services.

We will liaise with the particular depot on your behalf and resolve any problems swiftly and keep you updated at all times.

Items received that is incorrect must not have the packaging of the item opened, we must be notified as soon as it is convenient and we will advise full instructions for an exchange. Incorrect products received with security seals or sealed packaging which has been opened by the customer cannot then be returned for an exchange as they have been accepted by the customer.

Lost Parcels

Royal Mail Procedure:
1) We complete a claim form and include proof of posting and copies of commercial invoices to prove the cost of the goods.
2) Royal Mail processes the claim and will contact you to confirm the goods never arrived.
3) The claim is accepted once Royal Mail receives confirmation back.
4) We receive a cheque and your account is refunded the compensation amount in full.

If you do not make the effort to confirm the parcel is missing, no payout is received from Royal Mail so, in turn, you will not receive any compensation.

2) The courier processes the claim.

Modern Slavery Statement

Modern Slavery Statement

Modern Slavery Statement

This statement serves as IKAPOUKIS LTD’s declaration on modern slavery and human trafficking, pursuant to section 54 of the Modern Slavery Act 2015, outlining the measures the company has implemented and will persist in enforcing to ensure that modern slavery and human trafficking do not occur within our operations or supply chain.

We are convinced that, through the explicit policies set forth by us, our clients, and our suppliers, we can contribute significantly to the eradication of human trafficking and slavery in our supply chain.

Our company, starting in 2017, has enhanced our ethos and dedication to the prevention of modern slavery, reinforcing our vision and values.

To foster a comprehensive understanding of modern slavery risks among our staff, we offer continuous e-learning, which includes modules specifically on modern slavery and whistleblowing. This is supported by our company’s vision, values, and organisational policies, ensuring that all employees feel secure in voicing concerns without fear of retaliation.

Throughout the year, we have maintained the review and update of our organisational policies to promote ongoing improvement across all aspects.

Our focus has been particularly sharp on third-party agencies providing our temporary workforce, identified as the most significant risk area. We audit a selection of these agencies for compliance, aiming not only to mitigate the risk of modern slavery but also to ensure adherence to other legislative mandates, such as health and safety and the right to work in the UK.

The company also conducts verifications of our own employees to confirm their identity and their legal employment status in the UK.

We are committed to the continuous review of our contractual terms with customers and suppliers to aid in the fight against modern slavery.

Future Steps

We will persist in evaluating the effectiveness of our strategies to minimize the risk of modern slavery and will keep on identifying, monitoring, and evaluating any risk areas within our supply chain, addressing these risks accordingly.

We will strive to enhance the awareness of modern slavery prevention among our employees and suppliers by initiating an awareness campaign specifically designed to combat modern slavery.

This statement has received the endorsement of Ikapoukis LTD.

Signed,

Ioannis Kapoukis Director
