A WINNING AND CONSTRUCTIVE WEBSITE
Websites should be fast to access, easy to navigate,
informative and fun. Bovey Construction of Caton, Ashburton is
putting its new website to the test with a competition for readers.
The first person to visit the website on www.boveyconstruction.co.uk
and email the right answer to a simple question and provide feedback
to another will win a construction kit for kids, a Brio Bob the
Builder set, worth £39.99.
Question 1: How many points are there in the Bovey
Construction Customer’s Charter?
Question 2: Which of these points is the most important to a customer?
The website is a direct response to the growing
need for openness in the construction industry, particularly now
that many people are investing in property rather than in pensions
or stocks and shares. With property prices in July a full 12 per
cent more nationally than they were a year ago, investing in a
house or improving an existing one makes sense, providing your
builder has the skills for the project.
Bovey Construction’s website provides a transparent
overview of the company and its people from issues like the proportion
of staff who are trained, through recruitment practices and job
vacancies to how you define quality.
It also includes a secure site for clients who are
unable to visit the building in progress, an increasing trend,
with customers living as far away as Bermuda. Each client has
an individual webpage, which they can visit at any time in order
to get a photographic record of progress. They can then email
comments, saving money and time.
Readers can email [ info@boveyconstruction.co.uk
] with their answers or telephone Bovey Construction
on 01626 821919.
