Reviews
Verified customer feedback from recent timber door projects.
Very pleased with our new front door and French doors; it was so good to be able to have real wood as opposed to uPVC and the talented fitters were friendly and very careful. Everything was delivered and fitted on time as arranged. Many thanks to Martin and the team.
— Sarah H.
Super work carried out by thoughtful and efficient staff. The new porch entrance has transformed the look of the house and greatly improved warmth and reduced traffic noise. We were unsure we would see a real difference, but the results were worth every penny.
— James R.
The new door looks great and was fitted rapidly and professionally. Dealing with Wealden Joinery was a pleasure as they are responsive and do what they say they're going to do.
— Claire M.
“The door craftsmanship and attention to detail was exceptional. The whole process was professional from start to finish.”
