“The Deck was too hot to use in the summer – a sun umbrella just didn’t cut it. We even had to have the blinds closed to keep the sun out of the house.
I appreciated Marks opinions on design and colour, plus his communication throughout was excellent and installation was a breeze. Our Uniport has made the deck a useable space for all seasons – Can even BBQ in the rain!”

“We have always planned to have an outside area and Uniport fitted the bill extremely well. We saw the Uniport stand at the Auckland Home Show in 2013 where we put a small deposit on it as we were having a house built in 9 months time. Uniport held their special price for this entire time!
The Uniport is a great asset to our house, and a credit to the Company that installed it. We have had many hours of pleasure since it was installed.”

The company was quick to oblige with all the necessary information, had the position marked out and the Uniport installed a week after first contact. Now that’s service! The Uniport is brilliant – clean lines, great coverage and unobtrusive. Far more impressive than I had imagined! Friendly, professional company, awesome product – what more could you ask for?”

“Paintwork on our vehicles was becoming dull and the surface rough due to rain and sun exposure and excessive dust and debris from surrounding trees was building up on our vehicles.
The Uniport installation was quick, tidy and the installation crew was very professional and clear in their communication to the client.
The vehicles stay cleaner and cooler!
I also think it is important to tell customers that we were pleasantly surprised that the Uniport has held-up during the severe weather/wind storms we have experienced since the installation”

“We have two young children and getting everybody into the car in the rain was always a problem. We also wanted to leave the space unhindered by poles, so our children had the maximum amount of space to play.
The Uniport has made life easier – we can get the kids into the car without getting saturated. They also have free reign over our section for riding their scooters and bikes, without crashing into lots of poles. It does its job without encroaching on any of our grounds, as the two supporting poles are tucked away next to the house. Because the roof lets light through, it doesn’t feel restrictive, dark, and closed in like a traditional carport would. We have had many positive comments on it!”
