1. Opening up new opportunities
The home improvement market has shifted. Homeowners aren’ t just looking for repairs; they want functional new living spaces. hup! allows installers to meet this demand by providing a full extension system that’ s quicker and simpler to construct than traditional methods. By adding hup! to your skillset, you’ re not just fitting roofs; you’ re delivering full solutions, which can increase your average project value and help you stand out in a competitive marketplace.
2. Meeting the change in demand
Today’ s homeowners expect high performance, quick build times, and modern aesthetics. hup! was created with these priorities in mind. It enables installers to offer energy-efficient, contemporary extensions that blend with existing homes. Whether the goal is a home office, kitchen extension, or upgraded conservatory, hup! delivers a more consistent, high-quality result compared to brick-and-block, and helps installers provide better answers to evolving consumer needs.
5. The support doesn’ t end there
3. Keeping it simple
One of the standout features of hup! is its installer-friendly design. The lightweight, pre-manufactured panels are quick to assemble and reduce on-site guesswork. While the first job may require some assistance( which we’ re happy to provide), most fitters pick it up quickly.
4. Training tailored to you
At Connaught, we offer training that fits the individual. Some installers come from a conservatory or roof background; others may have general building experience. Our hup! training includes both product knowledge- so you can explain the system confidently to homeowners- and practical skills, such as surveying and installation techniques. This ensures you’ re fully prepared, not only to fit the system but also to sell it effectively and responsibly.
Taking on a new system can be daunting, which is why Connaught and Ultraframe offer ongoing support throughout your hup! journey. This includes help with initial surveys, site support during your first installation, and technical advice when needed. The goal is to build your confidence and ensure you’ re delivering a professional result every time, while reducing the risk of costly mistakes or call-backs.
