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!

As rare as a @PaulHollywood handshake...

Dear Mr Cooper,

I was forty odd years in the 'service industry' dealing with the public, and have upgrade service levels in several companies over the years. Writing to express my appreciation of the service received from a company are as rare as a Paul Hollywood handshake.

In your companies case I have received nothing but excellent service from my first meeting with Darren, your showroom staff, and your surveyor. My trepidation as to what it would all look like when work commenced taking down the old conservatory and putting up the new, all come to nothing.

My apprehension was unfounded as Kevin and Darren charged with carrying out the work, were excellent from the start, they were courteous and diligent throughout. Their skill levels soon became apparent, and we are delighted with the finished product.

As a consequence of all the above we would have no hesitation in recommending your company.

Yours sincerely 

Mr & Mrs Prentice, October 2021

Outings With Orangeries

With a Bank Holiday weekend on the horizon you may be planning to visit a stately home or gardens, many of which have beautiful orangeries.

In Norfolk, the Blickling Estate (run by the National Trust) has a fine 18th century orangery set in its grounds. Further afield, you may like to visit Wrest Park in Bedfordshire, where a Grade II listed example, built to a French design, can be found. And of course at Kew Gardens you can see an impressive design by Sir William Chambers.

Then if your trip to see an orangery has left you inspired to have one of your own, get in touch with our team, who will plan and install your ideal design!

‘Neat, Tidy and Skilful’


At Horsford we love to hear your feedback when we’ve completed work for you, whether it be as simple as replacing a single window, to fitting new doors or constructing a whole conservatory or orangery. A recurring theme from our customer feedback is how neat and tidy our fitters are and how efficiently and skilfully they do their job.

We’re committed to giving you the very best service possible and are pleased to hear that our valued customers are happy that they are receiving exactly that. Here are a few of your much-appreciated comments:


Mr and Mrs H wrote to us with these kind words. “Just wanted to say what an absolutely fabulous job the guys did when they came to fit our doors for the balcony. The job was incredibly neat and everything was done with real skill. All four of them were just great and we wanted to say thank you very much!”

Mr and Mrs B of Frettenham also put pen to paper to let us know how happy they were with their extensive work. “Had to just say what a wonderful job your lads made of our windows, doors and sunroom. They are a credit to your company, such hard workers and so tidy… The lads who fitted our windows and doors were Matt and Carl and three lads who fitted the sunroom were Gavin, Steve and Dean, what a great team! They are such hard workers, always came to us on time and very happy and cheerful.”

Finally here is an example of a comment received on one of our customer feedback sheets from Mrs B. “Your members of staff have been very courteous and nothing has been too much trouble. I would thoroughly recommend you to all my friends and family”

So as you can see, we offer great service, workmanship and products, but you don’t have to just take our word on that – just see what our customers have to say!

Summer Home Improvements



Summer is almost here with hopefully plenty of warm, sunny weather in which to enjoy our gardens – although this is British summertime we’re talking about! So when we get those days that are a bit too damp or chilly to sit outside what could be better than a light and airy conservatory or orangery in which to relax?

At Horsford Window and Conservatory Company we’re pleased to offer a wide range of orangery and conservatory designs to suit all homes and tastes. All are made to the highest standards and fitted by our experienced, friendly team. Whether you choose a conservatory or orangery you’ll appreciate the difference that having an additional room in your home can make.  Whether you use the space to entertain guests, indulge in hobbies, use as a home office, games room, sunroom or place to relax, you’ll be sure to love your Horsford orangery or conservatory!

And why stop there? Summer is the perfect time to give your home a fresh new look and attend to all those repairs that you’ve been putting off. When could be a better time to replace those ageing windows for a more up-to-date, energy-efficient design? Perhaps you need to update your external doors to include better security features, or add a porch that can double as a storage area for soggy coats and shoes when you get caught out in a summer shower?
 
However you’re intending to improve your home this summer, we’ll provide great service and excellent quality products.

Colour Trend


At Horsford Window and Conservatory Company we believe in giving our customers great service and choice. For some time our window and door frames have been available in a choice of white, black and brown, but now we’re pleased to announce the introduction of more great colours to our range.

Shades of grey are very ‘on trend’ for interior décor, so we’ve extended this theme by offering frames in light, slate grey and anthracite grey, whilst also keeping the traditional black.

Fancy a bit more colour? Then choose duck-egg blue or chartwell green to brighten up your home, or if your prefer to keep things a bit more neutral then cream makes a welcome change to the more commonly used white.

Why not come and see the range of colours for yourself by visiting one of our showrooms in Norwich (Marriott Close) or Cromer (Prince of Wales Road)? We’d love to see you and are happy to answer any queries you may have.

For more information about our products, please visit: www.horsfordwindowandconservatory.com/orangeries.html

Windows


Are you concerned about the cost of your energy bills this year? Is your home as energy efficient as it could be this winter? Don’t pay for heat that is literally going out of the window. This year opt to have Energy rated windows expertly installed by Horsford.

At Horsford we are pleased to offer a stylish range of ‘A’ rated windows as defined by the BFRC (British Fenestration Ratings Council) Rating Scheme. This is UK system that rates the energy efficiency of windows on a scale from ‘A’ to ‘E’, with ‘A’ being the best. It’s used to signify compliancy with building regulations when installing your replacement windows.

If you currently have single-glazed units or your windows were installed prior to April 2002, you could be experiencing significant heat loss from your home. By replacing your existing windows with ‘A’ rated double-glazed units, you could make substantial savings on your heating bills.

And of course, as with all Horsford products, our windows are made using high quality materials and are available in a range of stylish designs, so you can choose the right look for your home. You can be sure of efficient, expert installation and friendly service when you choose Horsford Windows.

Opt For An Orangery


Orangeries have become popular alternatives to conservatories in recent times, but how do the two really differ?

The main difference in the structure of an orangery is the roof, which incorporates a glazed lantern, as opposed to the entire area of the roof being glazed as with a conservatory.  

Another major difference in the design is the sidewall, with orangeries offering a more substantial structure compared to the typical conservatory. An entablature (deep-moulded fascia) surrounds the perimeter of the doors and windows, and classic orangeries have traditional colonnades – columns flanking the windows and doors below the entablature, consisting of period bases and detailing. 

Horsford’s bespoke orangery designs incorporate all the classic architectural elements, including roof lantern, glazing, colonnades and carefully planned proportions, to create a traditional, stylish structure to complement your existing building. However you plan to use your orangery, it will make a welcome addition to your home, adding both stylish living space and value to your property.

The construction of orangeries in this country dates back to the 17th century, when orangeries were built in the grounds of many fashionable residences, originally to house citrus trees during the winter months. However the earliest recorded orangery was built in Padua, Italy in 1545, with popularity for the structures rising with the advent of the production of clear glass in substantial quantities. These original orangeries tended to be huge buildings, not just used as plant houses, but designed to demonstrate the wealth and importance of their owners. Orangeries were even designed to contain fountains, grottos and areas to entertain guests.

Modern orangeries may be smaller structures, but they are designed to incorporate many original features and make stylish yet practical additions to the home. Providing light, airy, yet warm living spaces with aesthetic appeal, an orangery can add space, interest and value to your property, whether you are looking for an area to entertain, relax or bring your garden into your home.

At Horsford, we are pleased to offer bespoke orangeries, with a full, friendly yet professional service provided throughout the planning, construction and after-care stages.
