Why choose Paramount windows and conservatories?
Paramount has been established since 1989 and is now the largest independent provider of windows, conservatories and doors in the Northeast.
In December of 2007 the senior management team of Paramount went against the flow of current trading position of many home improvement companies and bought the company from the previous owners.
Three leading figures at Gateshead-based Paramount Windows & Conservatories bought the business for in a multi-million pound deal from its two founders; brothers Graham and David Auld.
The new owners and company directors Alan Oliver, Carl Birkenshaw and Derek McLaren immediately unveiled ambitious expansion plans which will see them opening further sites across the Northeast and recruiting a further 30 staff.
Financial Stability
This optimism, as reported in several key local publications, contrasts markedly with the recent problems at two other high profile double-glazing firms; Stockton based Budget Windows and Tyneside based Pennine Windows, which both went into administration within three weeks of each other with the loss of a total of 200 jobs. Their administrators blamed the credit crunch and a downturn in the housing and home improvement markets for their collapse.
But, by contrast, Paramount founder Graham Auld and Managing Director said:
Contrary to what others may be saying our sales were up last year. We are not noticing a downturn. It is all about having the right product at the right price.
Going through the MBO (Management Buy Out) meant that the company went under financial and legal scrutiny in the most vigorous and stringent of ways – and then has been scrutinised again. What that process has shown is that Paramount is in a very strong financial and trading position.
Company built on quality, courtesy and the best products in the market place
There have been many stories both in the papers and on TV about how many homeowners in the UK have dreamed of extending and enhancing their home in some way, only to be put off by the thought of careless cowboys creating more havoc than haven.
But you will never find that associated with Paramount Home Improvements. And that’s a promise, a promise backed by industry accreditation through the likes of the Glass and Glazing Federation (of which Paramount is one of very few members in the Northeast), and FENSA.
