JC Friend and Sons replaced 8 windows this week at our house. They are a highly professional company, do what they say they are going to do and when they agreed to do it. Most significantly, the whole team were delightful, friendly, polite and very very tidy. They were completely respectful of our home and protected everything from any damage. Their workmanship was perfect and they left the job in better shape than they found it, going out their way to even do a few extra jobs beyond the scope that they identified, such as removing some conduit whilst the scaffold was assembled, filling in a few draughty holes that they spotted in the on other window frames that were out of their scope and tidying up some pointing of the brickwork that was not in the scope. I would highly recommend this company. the friendliest and tidiest contractors we have ever had.

JC Friend and Sons fitted new windows and patio in our home. Jon Snr gave us a very fair quote and was very thorough in the process helping to explain all the different options available unlike others who came to quote. Whole job was completed within a week - could not believe the speed and quality of work. The whole team were polite, friendly, tidy and skilled. A true family business who value their customers and each other. The team have continued to be helpful and sincere since finishing the job, sorting out Certass certification and recommending other tradesmen to us. Cannot recommend Jon and his team enough!

I now have used this company on three separate occasions for the instalation of double glazed windows over a period of 3 years. On each occasion estimations were carried on time as agreed. The work done was of a first class standard in both materials used and fitting of the windows.Preparation was most professional and all debris both inside and outside cleared away and the site left clean and tidy. The amount of redecoration we had to do afterwards was minimal. I have absolutely no hesitation whatsoever in recommending this company for this work. They were courteous and helpful ( my wife and I are in our eighties) and a pleasure to have had them around the house, doing this work.

Used John Friend Windows to replace all my Double glazing, he on initial visit was very helpful and took me through the process, his estimate was on par with others, but he had that certain professionalism about him. When I agreed to use his company, he returned to measure accurately, as his initial quote did not go into removing render to accurately measure, also I had changed my mind to the style of some of the windows. John kept in contact with me advising of progress of order and approx installation date. On the first day of installation his sons (Jon and Joe) and a lovely character Mike arrived at 8am, and began to cover my carpets etc, advising me of where they were starting and it would be cold and it was, but hey what else can you do in winter with windows removed. 4 days of work and every day they cleaned up and tidied, great workmanship throughout and my house feels warmer now. In my opinion, you cannot get a more trustful and professional team, it was a real pleasure to see them work, they were so friendly and attentive all throughout the job. In my eyes money well spent and a credit to him, Mike and sons. Thank you

We had a new front door and side panel fitted February 2023. Jon and Joe arrived when they said they would, were polite, courteous and friendly. We have used the company several times and always find their work to be of the highest standard.

JC Friend have replaced three blown double glazing panes for us in the last few months. We chose them first because they're local. We've used them since because they're good.

I have had 2 big windows fitted. The team are fantastic, super competent and a really nice local, family business so they feel genuinely invested in giving you good service, keeping you in the loop from quote to completion, finishing the job to a high standard and reasonably priced too. I would unquestionably use them again and recommend them. Windows are a big investment, so you need to be confident with the ethos of the company you choose.

We used J.C Friend & Sons to install 6 new windows including 2 bays. They were very consultative when putting together the quote, with helpful suggestions such as putting acoustic glass in my autistic son's bedroom. The quote compared favourably with local competitors. They were professional and considerate when on site, and we are very impressed with the finished product.

We had bifold doors fitted by this company and from start to finish their service was first class. Work was carried out in a professional and helpful way and the attention to detail from John, Jo and BJ was really impressive. So pleased we had this local company undertake our work and would happily recommend them to anyone.

J.C. Friend have just finished fitting double glazed windows for our re-furbished bathroom and landing and a new composite front door. From the beginning of this project, they have been incredibly helpful, giving sound advice when we were trying to decide the most appropriate styles, glass designs and colours. The work itself has been carried out on time and everything has been done to the highest standard including meticulous cleaning up at the end of the job. We have been delighted with the work done and the the end result looks fabulous. We highly recommend J.C. Friend Ltd.
