Pets No Problem

At Horsford, we’re known for our deftness with doors, wonders with windows and craftsmanship with conservatories. But did you know that the team have quite a way with animals too? 

As Mrs I remarked back in October 2020, “The two young men were friendly, very skilled, polite and my dog (usually wary of new visitors) loved them.”

The Horsford team’s affinity with dogs was also noted by Mrs W in January 2020, when she said of Lee and Matty, “My dog Fred and I will miss them.”

But it’s not only dogs that love the guys, with Barney the cat deciding to take a snooze in the Horsford van (2016), when Alex and Carl were at work in his home. We nearly gained an extra member of the team that day!

More recently (October 2022), Steve and Darren were commended by Mr and Mrs E for a skill that we never even realised that they possessed. “Steve and Darren were very helpful when catching the rabbits that escaped into the garden from next door.”

So if you’re looking for new doors, windows or a conservatory for your home – or perhaps some company for your dog, comfort for your cat or help to control wayward rabbits – just get in touch with the Horsford team on: 01603 666414. Alternatively you can email us at: sales@horsfordwindows.com

Autumn Update

Do you ever wish that your conservatory felt as welcoming as your living room? Then it's time you replaced your existing conservatory roof with the stylish, innovative 'Livin' roof!

The design of this great system allows you to combine solid and glazed panels to suit your own style, letting in light whilst giving you the option of a more solid ceiling. A 'Livin' roof also provides greater thermal efficiency thanks to its great insulation properties.

Internally you can opt for a plastered vaulted ceiling or a suspended ceiling, and internal lights may be positioned either in the pelmet or hanging on the ceiling ridge. But why just stop at lights? Some people opt to install speaker systems too!

Give your conservatory an autumn update with a 'Livin' roof and the help of the Horsford team!

Pearl Service

At Horsford Window and Conservatory Company, we’re proud to have been helping to improve the homes of Norfolk residents for 30 years!

We started out in September 1992, selling windows and doors from the house of Brian Hoffman (former Managing Director) who lived in the village of Horsford, hence the company name.

From there we were able to open our first showroom and storage unit, situated on Patterson Road, Norwich. The premises consisted of a small shop with a garage at the rear, where our business continued to grow. We decided to attend markets held in Sheringham and Cromer. This proved so successful, with custom growing in the area that we decided to open our second showroom in Cromer, where we had established a great client base.

In September 2003, 11 years after starting out and with the business continuing to expand, we decided to move our Norwich office to a new, larger showroom and storage facility in Marriott Close on the City Trading Estate. It was also at this time, that current director, Gary Cooper, took over the reins.

Today we pride ourselves on our great service and quality of products, including windows, doors, conservatories, orangeries and the warm roof. We’re FENSA registered and a Which Trusted Trader and have received a wealth of lovely comments over the years from satisfied customers.

This year is our pearl anniversary but we like to think that we deliver gold standard service!

Let the Light in

Glass was first used in windows around 100 AD by the Romans, whilst paper was widely used in ancient China, Korea and Japan. Prior to that animal hide or cloth was placed over window openings. In 14th century England, window panes were made from flattened animal horn, with glass not that common until the 17th century. Early glass was very thick and not really transparent, but gradually glass-making techniques improved, making it thinner and clearer.

 

Today’s window glass offers a clear view of the outside world and it's more thermally efficient too, helping to keep your home warmer. Our windows are rated 'A' for energy efficiency and are available in a large range of styles to suit your home! 

 

“Extremely good communications throughout process. Quality of windows is excellent and priced competitively. The fitters worked hard and left no mess whatsoever. Thanks” Mrs Smith, July 2020

New Beginnings

Well here we are in January, a month of new beginnings, the start of a new year and let’s hope it will be a better one for us all. January gets its name from the Roman God Janus, who incidentally was the god of doors - an interesting figure for us then! The month is so named as it represents the door to the year.

We hope the New Year will open lots of doors for you. And remember if you’re looking to improve your home or if its actual doors you are after, the Horsford team can fit smart, new ones in your home. Have a good year everyone!

Season of Warm Colours

Well, autumn is well and truly here, it can be a beautiful season with the leaves turning gorgeous shades of gold, red and brown, but on the downside the evenings get darker earlier and damp mists and chilly days return.
 

Interestingly, according to a study by 'The Journal of Ageing Research', people who are born in the autumn are more likely to live to the ripe old age of 100! It's also said that those born in autumn do better in education.
 

Whilst you can't control when you were born, you can make sure you and your home are prepared for autumn. Now is a good time to check your doors and windows and consider more up-to-date, energy efficient replacements if they are old and worn. Similarly you may like to replace your conservatory roof with a Warm Roof or our new Livinroof that provides better thermal efficiency - have a chat with the Horsford Team!

Warm Is The New Cool!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A conservatory is a lovely place to relax on a summer’s day, but have you found yours a little too hot during the recent soaring temperatures? What you need is a Horsford Warm Roof.

 

Despite its name, the Warm Roof is just as efficient at keeping your conservatory cooler in summer as it is maintaining the warmth in winter. By replacing your existing conservatory roof with a Horsford Warm Roof, you’ll not only transform the appearance of your conservatory, but you’ll benefit from a more ambient year-round temperature too.

 

If you’re interested in installing a Warm Roof – or indeed a whole new conservatory or other home improvement product that we offer – then we’re pleased to be able to offer virtual appointments and free no obligation quotes.

 

Our team is on hand to provide virtual showroom tours, accurate quotes and useful advice over the phone. All this from the comfort of your own home!

 

You can rest assured that when you see our vans out and about on a job, we’re following the latest government guidance on reducing the spread of Covid-19. All our teams are equipped with hand gel, ensure they wash their hands regularly and adhere to safe distancing regulations.

 

So there’s no need to delay getting that new Warm Roof/conservatory/door/window any longer. Get in touch today.

Season Of Mists

Well, autumn is just around the corner, with the first day of the season according to the meteorological calendar being 1st September.

It can be a beautiful season with the leaves turning gorgeous shades of gold, red and brown, but on the downside the evenings get darker earlier and damp mists and chilly days return.

Interestingly, according to a study by 'The Journal of Ageing Research', people who are born in the autumn are more likely to live to the ripe old age of 100! It's also said that those born in autumn do better in education. Famous people born in this season include Elizabeth 1, Roald Dahl, Agatha Christie, Michael Faraday (English chemist and physicist), Pablo Picasso and John Lennon.

Whilst you can't control when you were born, you can make sure you and your home are prepared for autumn. Now is a good time to check your doors and windows and consider more up-to-date, energy efficient replacements if they are old and worn. Similarly you may like to replace your conservatory roof with a Warm Roof that provides better thermal efficiency.

So be prepared for the season ahead - have a chat with the Horsford Team!
