We recently had two VELUX windows replaced in our attic and were extremely impressed with the whole experience. The VELUX customer service team were friendly, helpful, and made the process very easy from start to finish.
The installation was carried out by Andrew and his son from Living Solutions, who did an outstanding job. They arrived exactly on time, worked efficiently and neatly, and left everything spotless afterwards. The replacement itself was done with great care — there was no damage at all to the wallpaper around the windows, and the finish is exceptionally tidy.
A high‑quality, stress‑free service that we would happily recommend.
Excellent service from Carolyn in technical and installer services. She spent 1hr 37 minutes on the phone with me, trying to pair a new Velux Touch remote with my elderly mother’s existing windows and blind. This was not straightforward as the old remote was malfunctioning. Carolyn never lost her patience and worked hard to find a remedy so that we achieved a successful solution in the end. She deserves a medal!

Velux provided clear & concise quotation and advice for replacement of 3no. Windows. The staff were helpful and a pleasure to deal with. There was a query re the ‘close’ location of 2 off the windows but Velux sent contractor to check this and all was good to proceed.
The contractor, Brian McCormick Joinery, arrived on time, carried out the work, cleaned up, leaving the room spotless. Brian & his team were great, respectful and focused on getting the job done. What a relief!! My faith in contractors restored!! I would not hesitate to recommend them.
I love my new windows!
Thank you Velux team, especially Robert.

I have recently purchased x5 solar black out blinds. They are amazingly easy to fit and look incredibly professional. You have to look up to even notice they are there. The remote control is already paired up too. It couldn’t be any easier.
I call Caroline in customer services for a bit information and she was so easy to talk with and really helpful. So good to be able to talk to a nice human. Thank you Developements team what a product and thank you Caroline on the front line. Kindest regards. Stephen Kear.

Velux responded well in response to our request for an approved installer of a velux window. They took all the relevant information and I sent photographs for clarity
Their first installer was too busy so they sent details of Stephen Green in Ashton and Makerfield. Stephen did a great job for us even though we could not continue with the project. He opened a stuck old velux window and discovered a problem with the geometry of the light tunnel. However he suggested a number of workrounds and spent considerable time reporting this back to velux
Impressed with the service provided by both and should events arise again would not hesitate to use them again. Thankyou both

I rarely take the time to leave feedback, but on this occasion I feel the 5 stars are very much deserved.
I recently had two VELUX windows and blinds installed in my son’s attic bedroom, and the whole process, from the initial enquiry through to completion, was straightforward and stress-free.
The team took the time to understand what I was looking for and provided really helpful advice on the most suitable products for the room. Their knowledge and guidance made choosing the right windows and blinds much easier.
The installation team were a real standout. They were exceptionally polite, friendly and professional throughout. They were also incredibly clean and tidy, taking great care to leave everything exactly as they had found it. Above all, they were just genuinely lovely people to have working in the house.
The finished installation looks fantastic, and I couldn't be happier with the result.
A thoroughly professional company with a great team. Highly recommended, 5 stars without hesitation!

everyone i spoke to were lovely, clear, patient and asked really informed questions, also notably careful i didnt spend more than needed - I'm under a flightpath so wanted triple glazed sound deadening glass - which is a little more money, they checked on 2 separate calls that was correct. Installation was swifter than I expected and done to a flawless standard. The velux direct price was fair and the fitting cheaper than I expected. You can get cheaper roof windows, but none as well engineered. Velux last. This was a like for like replacement of a 33 year vintage Velux, opened every day for last 8 years. Quality shows. Velux has perfected both their product and the people all the way through the process. Would totally recommend them. Will use the direct service again for sure

Prompt, clear response that provided the information needed to answer my query and solve my issue. Excellent customer service.

I contacted Velux to see if they could change the colour of the blinds that I had ordered from beige to white. My call was answered straight away and I spoke to Caroline in Customer Services. She was very pleasant to speak to and said that this was perfectly okay. She made the amendment straight away, confirming this by emailing back to me a revised copy of the order. This is how all Companies' Customer Services should be.

We recently upgraded our manual blinds to solarwhich have been installed today and worth the money. From quotation to delivery the service has been flawless. I would thank Kieran who phoned me to take payment, he was so polite and helpful, he’s an asset to your team! Thank You

We have solar closing vellux and would recommend the product. Aside from the product, when we have needed information and advice the customer service has been great. I’d highly recommend them.

We are so pleased with our new Velux windows.
VE Property Developments Ltd were the installation company and from our first meeting we knew we were going to be happy. Valdek suggested that we should think about having some of the windows as top openers this was not a pushy sales talk he just said that with our views top hung ones would show the views better and left us to decide, he was so right they are amazing. The team arrived on time and covered the flooring and really cared about the work they were carrying out which was a breath of fresh air. We are very happy with the total service provided and wouldn't hesitate to recommend both Velux and VE Property Developments Ltd

The staff at Velux were very helpful during the whole process. Helping to explain the product, installation and suggesting blinds for the different rooms. The installation from the time I ordered just took a little longer than anticipated but no real problem.
The company who were contracted to do the work were great; coming to look at the house before and on the days of installation were really good. I was so impressed how they fit these windows from inside on my 3 storey house. I had very old velux windows. So pleased with the result.

I needed 3 very old Velux windows to be replaced - I chose to organise this through Velux directly. I was very happy with the Velux service and indeed the service provided by their local agent Sheerwater Glass. Installer arrived on the right date and at the right time and the work was carried out efficiently and effectively with minimal dust and mess all managed with dust sheets and careful work.
Impressed.

Bought a Velux blind from Amazon which had an issue with the tension. Contacted Velux and, despite not buying from them direct, their support was brilliant. we have 4 Velux windows (2 in the loft and 2 on an extension), all now with blinds which are a necessity in the hot weather. Noticeably, we closed the ones in the extension whilst we were on holiday, as my daughter had noticed how hot the freezer was getting with direct sunlight on to it during a recent hot spell. The daily energy stats showed a significant 20p+ per day reduction during a subsequent holiday.

I puzzled for 14 years as to why I couldn't work the fitted blinds on my Velux windows - till this year, with the heat, and my determination to solve the issue! Windows high up in a ceiling with the 'label' telling you the model number behind the handle, ie invisible, are very frustrating, but my window cleaner managed to take a photo from a high ladder. Velux could offer details of what needed to be done for this model to bypass the remote control usage; and at long last an electrician with a very long ladder has managed to connect the blinds, which the builder had failed to do 14 years ago! Responses to emails took sometimes a few days to receive, but I was well prepared with all the necessary information and advice from Velux to provide to my electrician for when he could eventually come to do the connection. Thank you Velux for your help!

I contacted the company about replacing my Velux Windows. They advised of what photos to take, what codes to give etc. they passed on the information, and advised it might be up to 12 weeks. It was a few weeks later that they came back to me saying my windows were being manufactured, and got me in contact with my installer. Denis and his two colleagues were brilliant. They covered my carpets first, installed with no intrusion, took all the packaging and old windows away, and cleaned up like they had never been there. Except when I look at my new, perfectly installed robust beautiful new windows.

From our initial telephone enquiry with Robert regarding a replacement Velux window (ours is 30 years old and the double glazing seal has gone) and his wonderfully complete understanding of what we wanted (we were amazed how far on Velux windows have come), through to our discussions and technical queries with Marnie, Jeanette, Kirsten and Nicole, we have been delighted with how knowledgeable and caring Velux staff have been. Our installer has now been appointed and if we have the same experience with the installation, we'll be over the moon. Can't wait to experience the solar heat blind and the solar powered opening and closing.
