Having dealt with UIS for over six years, rarely have I come across a more pro-active company with a can do attitude and a “nothing will beat us” culture! Within all aspects of the industry, whether it be Brass Balustrade, Stainless Steel Handrail, Bridges, Secondary Steel or plain and simple Portal Frames, their approach and attitude to delivering the same high quality project is always the same.

I cannot speak highly enough of these guys!

I’d like to take the opportunity to first and foremost thank U.I Services for their fantastic support on my recent projects!

Both Kev and Jake offer a friendly and reliable service with a wide variety of knowledge on all fabrication, design elements and offer their expertise to over coming issues we have faced on our jobs.

As a project and managing Director myself it makes projects so much easier using these guys. We simply meet on site to discuss the job at hand. They offer a prompt quotation and I am always informed of their timescales.

They have kept me updated throughout on lead times and options available including where we may be able to save the client some money. So everything is transparent from start to finish.

I really enjoy working alongside you both. Thank you for a professional and thorough job that you have delivered on numerous of our projects to date.

As a self-builder of an innovative Eco-home, I needed to partner with a company who offered competence, a willingness to push themselves and the resilience to stick with me during the challenging times.

As well as demonstrating the ability to build the metal structure of the property, they have also been able to add some creative finishing touches to my home. In doing this, they bring their solutions focused approach to convert ideas into reality.

This is why I trusted them to build a bespoke staircase, balcony and front gates for my house. They are down to earth, yet able to ask the tough questions when needed.

I would like to take this opportunity to say a huge ‘thank you’ to Kevin and everyone at Universal Industrial Services on completion of our pavilion.

From chatting about the initial concept, you designed, planned, and gave endless advice on choosing the best materials and lighting which have all made it look as fabulous as it does!!

Your professionalism, hard work and reliability are second to none and your attention to detail is nothing less than perfection, always going that extra mile and making detailed improvements when you see an opportunity.

The finished project has surpassed all my expectations and I will soon be chatting to you about my next idea!

Thanks again!
