Daniel from Whitfield Conservatories came out to quote for our 4m x 3m lean-to with a tiled warm roof and French doors. He was professional and clearly knew his stuff - he talked me through the choice between a dwarf brick wall with glazing above and full-height glass, explained the tiled warm-roof options, and was upfront about the building-regs and footings side of things given our solid wall and the nearby manhole cover. The quote was clear and well explained. We haven't gone ahead yet only because it's a big job in the £15k-30k range and we're getting a couple of other quotes to compare before we decide - no reflection on Daniel, who I'd happily recommend getting a quote from.
Whitfield Conservatories & Windows Ltd replied
Thank you so much, Rachel - that's really kind. Getting a couple of quotes on a job this size is exactly the sensible thing to do, and I'd honestly encourage it. Our quote stands with no time pressure at all, and there's absolutely no rush from our end. If anything comes up while you're comparing - the roof spec, the base and building-regs side, or the manhole detail - just shout and I'll happily talk it through, or pop back to measure again whenever suits. Best of luck with the decision, and thanks again for the kind words. Daniel
