What Great Missenden homeowners tell us.
"Their surveyor drove out twice before we'd even signed anything. That's the level of care we hoped for and rarely find."
"Insulated garden studio, fully wired, plastered and finished — six weeks from survey to keys. It reads as an extension of the house, not a shed."
"A 7m bifold set across the back of our Chiltern barn conversion. Faultless install, faultless finish. The traffic door is a small detail that we now use every day."

- Can I have Georgian bars on a French casement?
- Yes — astragal and Georgian bars in 18mm or 25mm, applied or through-frame, are available on both sashes and any fixed lights above. Popular on flush-casement French windows in period properties.
