Thank you Albany team for my new lounge window. I love it! I chose this company as they are local and established. I was very pleased from my initial call through to the finished install. Friendly, professional, super job, good value and thankfully no hard selling. Just listened to what I wanted and work was carried out 6 weeks after the enquiry. Going to use them again in a few weeks.

From the outset Albany Windows were professional and efficient, they also gave value for money. The fitters were punctual, did the work very well and within the time scale, no mess, no redecorating, so impressed. We would recommend Albany Windows without hesitation to anyone reading this review. By the way, we never give top marks so one star is missing, must leave some room for improvement, though not sure where!

I'm really glad we chose Albany Windows to supply and fit a new front door with a side panel. Firstly, the sales process was an eye-opener. None of the "market trader" nonsense we were subjected to previously by others. Options selected, design presented on screen, price quoted - sign here. Job done! Price slightly less than we expected, so all very easy. Six weeks later, the door was fitted as promised without any fuss. And afterwards - proper paperwork! A receipted invoice and Fensa certificate. Albany Windows were recommended to us, and I'm glad we didn't waste any time looking any further!

Excellent customer service from Albany Windows. They worked hard to ensure that windows were fitted only 4 days after house was knocked through to extension, minimizing time exposed to the elements.

Albany windows replaced 10 items in our house, 9 windows and a door. Overall the service was excellent, and the workmanship and courtesy were exemplary. The job was far better done than my previous experience of having double glazing installed. There was a significant problem with our installation, however, in that two of the windows were about six inches too short. Unfortunately the installer only noticed this after the old windows had been removed. The new windows were temporarily installed with a panel at the top to fill the space, but this left a gap around them externally where rain could enter the walls. Originally it was suggested we would have to wait a few weeks for correctly sized replacements to be available. When we explained that this was completely unacceptable on the grounds of security and weatherproofing, one of the directors did make an early morning long drive to pick up some replacements and they were installed very neatly only 3 days later than they would have been originally. I take the view that everyone makes mistakes and what matters is what you do to fix them, and I would say that, after minimal haggling, Albany Windows performed very well in this regard. The installers themselves were very neat, courteous and reliable and the final result excellent.

The trader replied (on 04/07/2016)
As Mr and Mrs Slade so graciously point out, mistakes are made, even in the best run businesses. However, this was an oversight which should never be made, because as a final check the installers should measure the new window against the old window before taking it out, to ensure a survey error has not been made. But the very fact that we make so very few survey errors can lead to complacency, as happened in this case, and will certainly not happen again. A second point indirectly raised is the distance to this particular supplier, and the potential two week wait for a re-make, which was in practice reduced to a few days. This particular supplier is in Devon and supplies quality local installers throughout Britain, being a leading 'super-fabricator', which we use because of its constant multi-million pound investment in product development and production technology, which in our view no local company can match. This investment in quality is one of the reasons we get constantly good quality reviews, including indeed from Mr and Mrs Slade. Following this incident this supplier is reviewing their flexibility and speed when such an urgent re-make requirement arises, because though it has the same policy as us, that ultimate quality must never suffer because of undue haste, in this case quality was maintained with the haste which we fully accept was indeed due.

I had a big order of 9 windows and 2 doors and signed up at a decent price back in August, no deposit required. I had to chase it a couple of times as it was 3.5 months until fit commenced, due to delays in manufacture as a result of COVID. This was the only negative; I wish I'd received some communication letting me know the timescale as it changed. The main thing is obviously the windows and the job itself and I have only positives regarding those. Fitters were polite, helpful (answering my many questions!) and worked efficiently and tidily and kept me informed as to what was happening and each item they were tackling. Finished to an excellent standard and look very nice, no cosmetic issues or damage or problems with handles etc. They even laid insulation behind a couple of panels that wasn't part of the job, which I provided. House is now warmer and far quieter, looks nice, especially the composite door which was dearer but far more stylish than those boring old white or brown front doors. So if you're looking for a reasonable price, established company with their own employed fitters rather than contractors and good products I would recommend Albany Windows. Daz
