QUALITY INSTALLATION IN SOMERSET
Bristol’s Somerglaze Windows has just completed the
installation of an impressive four-pane anthracite grey on
white PatioMaster door on a home extension in Somerset.
They really offer a superior
patio door which we, and
our customers, can rely on.
PatioMaster offer a ‘fit and
forget’ promise that keeps us
coming back to them for our
patio door installations.”
The project is a perfect
example of the latest trends
in sliding patios too. The
homeowner opted for a
four-pane sliding patio be-
cause it would give her the
vast expanse of glass she
was looking for as well as
bigger sightlines and better
uninterrupted views.
Somerglaze’s founder
Gary Hembrow has been
working with PatioMas-
ter South West, his local
PatioMaster dealer, for some
years. When his customer
specified sliding patio doors
on her extension, Gary knew
PatioMaster would provide
the quality and reliability
she was looking for. He
comments: “The quality of
the product and smoothness
of operation on PatioMaster
doors is far superior to other
products on the market, so
we did not hesitate to turn
to them for this installation.
