Ian started his carpentry career at the tender age of 13, sweeping the floors after school at F Kimberley & Son in Romford, Essex. Upon leaving school, Ian secured the position of trainee carpenter at F Kimberley & Sons where he received his full carpentry training, working his way up to become a junior partner.
Ian then went on to establish I Foster & Sons in 1988 working from a small workshop on Mount Pleasant Farm in Hornchurch. Where we remained until 1994 when due to expansion I Foster & Sons was again relocated this time to Spring Gardens Industrial Estate in Romford, Essex where we remain today.

I wish I could give this company more than 5 out of 5. The workmanship and service is excellent. From the first visit through to paying a deposit (and receiving a deposit guarantee certificate) to fitting, our experience has been first class. The window fitters were fantastic, friendly, helpful, thorough and of course, cleaned up everything behind them. I couldn't recommend this company highly enough. They aren't the cheapest but you really get what you pay for.
