Also good value compared to similar much larger companies who are crafty marketeers. Dan China2025-01-19Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Highly recommend - competitive price and a really friendly professional team from sales through to installation. Guy Dowman2024-12-28Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We did a full replacement of all our windows and external doors. Work started and completed on the dates exactly as promised. The team were courteous, professional, efficient and once they’d finished for the day tidied up after themselves. We were very happy with the process from start to finish as well as the end product. We needed a last minute change and they were able to accommodate that too. I highly recommend Bowalker Windows.

Windows/doors very good quality Emma Russell2023-10-24Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had all my windows replaced upstairs last month and a lovely team did a brilliant job in one day. They look great and I'll use Bowalker again for downstairs as soon as possible. Will Glyn2023-08-24Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We recently did a big refurb on a house and needed to work with lots of different trades people - most of whom really let us down and were unreliable. Bowalker did exactly what they said they would and were extremely punctual and reliable. The windows they have fitted are very robust and they have done a fantastic job. Highly recommended. Margarita Bennett2023-04-21Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Amazing service and really good quality product. Highly recommend! Sussex Human2022-10-14Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I've used this company for years, have now finally replaced all our windows and doors and I have always found them helpful, professional and really good to deal with. They are also very competitive in price, better than most. They have ideas and make suggestions that are very useful. They were able to replace our stained glass leaded windows with replicas of what was there before, so pleased with them. Can't recommend them highly enough.
