This fitting of five windows to the rear of our house was the third time that Clarkes had completed work here for us. In October we had two windows fitted and earlier in January new fascias, soffits, guttering and downpipes. Every staff member from Clarkes have been excellent. The quality of the products used and the work completed is very high. Every job was completed on time as scheduled and to budget. The staff have all been professional, honest, knowledgeable, understanding and polite. A pleasure to have around. We are delighted with the results and would most definitely recommend Clarkes Windows.

From beginning to end the service from Clarkes has been exemplary. The survey and estimate were very clear and exactly fulfilled our requirements. The fitting took place on the promised date and despite cold and wet weather including a spot of snow, the two fitters worked very hard to complete the work in the time we were told. They were friendly and helpful and worked extremely tidily. As a result, we have a result which we are highly pleased with, and the clear-up was very thorough leaving us with no mess at all. We would have no hesitation in recommending Clarkes to anyone.

We’ve been so impressed with the service, products and the whole team at Clarkes Windows. After receiving a very competitive quote, the thorough site survey gave us complete confidence in the solutions offered to change our windows and fit a modern sleek looking conservatory with bifold doors. Their fitters were so polite, friendly and clearly experienced and they left the place super tidy each night. We could not be happier with the results! The house has been transformed. Thanks Tony and the team. It’s been a pleasure.

We have just had windows fitted from Clarkes windows. From start to finish the service has been impeccable. All members of the team are very knowledgeable, friendly and professional. I rarely leave reviews but given the standard of product and service I just had to leave feedback. Living in an old barn conversion our requests were not the standard but the team guided us through the process with helpful advice along the way. The fitters are an absolute credit to Clarkes windows - especially Dale, they work quickly and cleanly and are so polite. The windows look amazing, we are getting lots of comments on how beautiful our home looks and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Clarke’s windows to anyone thinking of changing their windows. Five star service from a lovely team of people.

Compete replacement of windows, doors, roofline gutters and downpipes

I invited a quote from Clarke’s of Dorchester. Checking out their website I found that almost everyone spoke highly of them and the only negative review seemed somewhat unreasonable. At the appointed time their representative, Chris, arrived and having quickly ascertained what I wanted, measured up my windows. A few days later I received a quotation. There were further choices to be made regarding style, finish and type of weld, but the advice was patiently given. Meeting Tony Clarke convinced me that there was a genuine person in whom I could put my trust. I decided that I would also have the roofline soffits, gutters and downpipes repaired and replaced to add to the three doors and 16 windows. The installation was completed in under four days. Tony had told me that he placed no time constraints on his teams and that the essential criterion was not sped but to ‘get it right’. The fitters were unfailingly polite, friendly and helpful and were all masters of their trade. No, that is not sufficient: they were artists with experience and expertise. The soffits and gutters have now been replaced to the now expected high standard.

Replacement of 11 double glazed windows in a 3 storey terraced house in Poundbury

Clarkes windows replaced all my double glazed windows in Poundbury. Despite covid-19 initially delaying any work, Clarkes telephoned me as soon as this was lifted to update me on work. I was informed exactly when scaffolding would be erected and removed. The schedule of work was explained in detail including start day, time of day and the named staff who would be working on my home. The staff were competent, professional, polite and good humoured. Great care was taken to protect both the rooms and exterior, and everything was made good after each installation. Each day everything was put back in order, cleaned and vacuumed. The work was inspected by the boss, Mr Clarke on completion and the scaffolding removed promptly. I am delighted with the quality of the actual windows and the installation and staff.

Changing windows is a big decision and after hearing nightmare stories from others we were apprehensive about replacing ours. From the 1st meeting with Clarke’s windows we felt safe, they listened carefully and gave great advice on different aspects that we hadn’t considered. Repeated again when they called to measure up; they wanted our experience to be a positive one and again we felt very safe with such a big job been undertaken. The fitting lads arrived and they were great. They treated our home like their own. Cloths were laid out, clearly some mess was made, but everything was hoovered when they left so it was like they hadn’t been there. No mess outside. They were so polite and a credit to the firm. The service from Clarke’s is excellent. Due to weather conditions the lads were coming to us later one morning and we had a phone call to inform us that this would be case. They even matched up our old handles in our extension to coordinate with the new ones. I can’t praise this firm enough. We had a small issue with one of our handle locks and they are on the case to sort it with absolutely no problem. I highly recommend them for their communication, expertise, great quality windows and an excellent experience from start to finish. I’m so pleased we chose Clarke’s Windows.

Very Disappointed

I have no issue with the workmanship, helpfulness, timekeeping, tidiness of the team who were excellent. However, and how I wish I'd expressed my concerns at the time, when Tony told me a 20 degree roof pitch would be enough. I had my doubts. The new conservatory would be replacing one of about 20 years of age with more or less a flat roof, which I had to clean. Now, being in my 70's and no longer wishing to climb up and down a ladder to clean the roof, I was looking forward to a roof that washed itself in the rain. I've had the new conservatory about four months, awaiting heavy downpours. These we have now had but still all sorts of crud is irremovably sitting on the roof. I'm very, very disappointed, and would have reservations recommending them.

Mine was a small order but I received prompt and courteous attention at all times. I requested repairs to 3 normal size windows that had misted up. Two very helpful and knowledgeable guys came at the allotted time and even though it was raining quite hard fitted new glass in very quick time. Very pleased with the result.
