Kevin and his team were straightforward to work with, they responded promptly to the initial visit request and provided a very competitive quote afterwards. The lead time for the sash windows was reasonable and they delivered on schedule. Kevin and his team were easy to communicate with, responding quickly to the initial request and subsequent quote, which was very competitively priced. The time frame for sash window production was practical and they met the deadline. The final result was very satisfying and they will be used again without a doubt and recommended wholeheartedly.

These gentlemen provide exceptional service at a competitive rate. They performed a thorough restoration of all sash windows, even replacing a few. The staff was friendly, and they left the job site clean and tidy. I highly recommend their services. In fact, my neighbor also chose them for their window restoration needs!

Needed a set of sash windows replaced on my rental property in St Andrews, Kevin came up on a weekend, measured up and told me about his service to double glaze within the original casing. Was expecting a massive quote, like bigger companies like Everest, but Kevin came back with a quote less than half the price. He came and did all the work at times to suit my tenants. The quality of the work is top notch, and Kevin was more than happy to come up and fix the settling issues which occurred after a few weeks. The work looks really good and my neighbours are really impressed.
