Testimonial: “I selected to use Timber windows of Fornham as I was very impressed with the quality of workmanship and innovation of their windows. We have an older style house with very poorly insulated wooden Georgian casement style windows. We had been desperately keen to upgrade to modern efficient double glazing but refused to opt for cheap UPVC windows. The look and feel of the house would have been fundamentally ruined so we knew we had to choose wood. But we wanted wooden windows that look as similar as possible to the original but with modern insulating efficiency. Having visited Timber Windows of Fornhams display office we were able to confidently see first hand the type of quality we were to receive. However, the window quality is only part of it. Any concerns I may have had about the quality of the fitting service disappeared very quickly. The two very experienced fitters arrived on time, were courteous, efficient and expertly skilled. They fitted the windows with absolute minimal damage and finished superbly. Having windows fitted of this expense you need to have the confidence in the service and overall quality. I would 100% recommend Timber Windows of Fornham to anyone looking for a high quality product, finish and service.”
