“I have been using the HBXL Crystal Direct link for nearly 6 years now”

You can’t beat a testimonial from a satisfied customer to make the point that Crystal Direct really do provide a great service manufacturing and delivering PVC-u windows, doors, French doors, roof lanterns and conservatories for building firms across the UK.

HBXL have enjoyed a successful partnership with Crystal Direct for a number of years now. Dave of DSL Property Services, who’s based in Cambridgeshire, bought EstimatorXpress and Health & Safety Xpert from HBXL in 2007, then PlansXpress in 2016. And since 2017 he’s been getting his windows, doors and conservatories from Crystal Direct, having won the work using EstimatorXpress quotations. (Not that you have to use HBXL software to buy from Crystal Direct!)

The photos above were taken by Dave (including one of the man himself) and here is what he had to say about the Crystal Direct and HBXL tie-up:

“DSL Property Services has been using HBXL software for many years, I personally find the HBXL EstimatorXpress and PlansXpress programmes both useful and easy to use. It enables us to produce professional quotes quickly with updated and accurate material prices. You can use the Crystal-Direct link into the Estimating software, it allows me to select from a variety of window, door and conservatory styles and drop them into my quotes directly.

This information can then be sent easily to Crystal-Direct for further support and assistance if needed. I have been using the HBXL Crystal-Direct link for nearly 6 years now placing many orders this way. Once ordered all deliveries are scheduled and tracked for convenience – backed up by a dedicated customer service team. All of this benefits me, my company, and our customers – I would recommend both HBXL and Crystal-Direct to any property developer, builder or tradesperson!”
