Universal Wins "People's Choice Award 2008"
Universal has received the Bradenton Herald's People's Choice Award for "Best Window Company". This prestigious award is voted on by the community at large and a huge honor for everyone at the Company.
Door Shop Opens
To ensure our customers receive the most competitive prices, top quality products and on time deliver, Universal has opened its own door shop. Universal stocks a full line of America's leading entry door components, Therma Tru, and is gaining market share in this area every day. With full installation of doors when the windows are installed, the construction process is simplified.
FORTRESS Hurricane Protection Products
In response to incredible demand for hurricane protection products and a limited number number of "reliable" providers, Universal has launched its hurricane protection and window replacement division.
"With an estimated 150,000 windows and doors installed in 2005, MOST without hurricane protection, Universal has the expertise, infrastructure and resources to make this offering seamless for our contractors and homeowners," according to Universal's President Rocky Smith.
Contractor Programs
Universal has earned a 30% market share in the new construction window and door market segment over the past 20 years. The Company is partnering with this group of loyal contractors to offer hurricane protection to the new construction home buyer as part of their new home. The benefits are huge:
- High Demand - Home buyers are concerned about protecting their largest investment.
- Included In Mortgage - eliminates out of pocket expense after closing.
- Proven Track Record - Universal has earned the trust of the contractor over the past 20 years.
- Installation Resources - Universal will be supplying installing hurricane protection over the same windows and doors it is already supplying and installing.
- Standardized Package Pricing - Universal has developed "packages" that allow all models to be pre priced streamlining the process for the contractor and homeowner alike.
Existing Homeowner Discount Programs
Universal has installed thousands of windows and doors in Sarasota and Manatee County. The Company will provide an estimate for hurricane protection for each of these homes by simply pulling a copy of what was installed and preparing an estimate. This will greatly reduce the cost of each transaction and speed up the getting the home protected tremendously. These saving will be passed onto to the consumer.
If Universal did not supply your windows and doors, we will be happy to provide a "hurricane assessment" of your home and provide a detailed estimate by a qualified, professional sales consultant.
