“Avoid at all time. Extremely pushy sale person. I asked for one day to think about the quote (£5700 for 7 windows and a door) but they unreasonably rejected saying if I don't sign a contract today the price would be £14K by tomorrow. They rather lose a genuine customer. So They have lost me forever and gained a bad review. Very bad experience from the start.”

“We ordered a new front and back doors, 3 replacement windows and 3 windowsills. At time of sale we were promised 5 keys for the door, only received 3, unable to order extra keys as the paperwork with our special code on was not passed onto us. Front door lock originally fitted the wrong way round - fitters corrected. 2 of the windows do not close easily, everytime I go to close the windows I feel as if I am forcing them. Fitters dropped cement onto our radiator in the front room, didn't clean up, we also have smears all over our paintwork. The bathroom windowsill has just had a PVC hat put on to in as when the surveyor came round he informed us that hardwood in a bathroom was not suitable, fair enough, but when my husband explained to me we would be getting a pvc windowsill he was not corrected. Original bathroom windowsill has a crack in and is soaking up the water from the shower. The PVC windowsill hat is not sealed at the ends nor underneath, causing the water from the shower to still get into the old windowsill, meaning that in a few years it will cause the window to need replacing. Only when I contacted the provider of the front door lock was I then informed by Safestyle that they would be providing me with a new lock and keys - Will I get the paperwork with the code this time? This was supposed to happen mid September, Engineer called in sick, COVID related, understandable, husband had booked the day as holiday, completely wasted as there are only 2 engineers for each area. Was promised a date of fixing of Sat 1st October, only to be informed that this is now not happening due to the engineer not being able to work (not illness related). Unable to get any engineers from other areas to cover. Now won't get sorted til Mid October!!!!!!! Windows and doors were fitted in August. Would never recommend this company to anyone.”

“Had 14 windows and 2 doors fitted on the 31/8/22 and this is the standard of their work, Had fire hinges put on windows,it states by building regs that a fire escape windows must open to 450mm ours only open 260 mm so miss sold windows as a registered disabled person if there was a fire i would be unable too get out, phoned 4 times in the last 4 weeks, had one of their engineers out and said all the windows and doors are fitted incorrectly need to take out and refilled and reconfigure , but keep using excuse saying that they need a report from building control ,that won’t sign of my extension till I have fire escape access, in 2 bedrooms and front room”

“After problems during the installation, dates wrong etc. We currently ahve a front door which is not able to be Used as It cannot be locked if unlocked. A failure of an engineer came in July and bascially undid the work done by the emergency locksmith. Another 3 months wait for an appointment and then the apoinment is moved. Safestyle cannot understand that 4/5 months unable to use our front door is not acceptable and keeps threatening us with invalid warranty if we use a local company to repair their faulty workmanship.”

“They have the worst customer after sales of any company, very little care for fixing their own mistakes. I have had a broken window from installation for over a month now with still no date for even the repair to occur. Avoid this company, there are other options for new windows and doors.”

“February 2022 we had our patio sliding doors replaced with French door with Safestyle Uk. During sales we spoke to several sales companies before going with Safestyle. We paid an extra £600 then others quote we received because we thought Safestyle to be reliable. TAKE MY ADVICE PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS THIS COMPANY. Over the summer we’ve been have problems with the main opening door it started to jam so I phoned customer services which takes a good 20 mins before you get through and explained to them our problems they told me because of extreme weather conditions. I took there word and forcefully closed the door. But thing are lot verse now called to book and engineer to look at the problems but each time on the day of arrival they was a problem (either the van broken down, drivers stuck in traffic or has COVID). Today (7thSept 2022) the door will not close due to the bad workmanship (see photos of the locking plate and the drop of the door) I’ve spent most of my WFH afternoon trying to get urgent attention before night fall. Eventually got through to a more understand representative Davina who’s managed to sort out a emergency locksmith for me tonight (just have a call from Vander locksmith will be here for 8pm) hopefully my house will be secure tonight. Safestyle engineers booked for Saturday fingers crossed he turns up. Lost 4hrs work time will need to make it up Thursday & Friday.”

“We needed new windows and decided to go with Safestyle. BIG mistake. The Safestyle sales rep promised one thing but delivered another. He gave us an original quote of over £13,000 for 10 windows but said that due to our age (67 and 63) he could give us a one time only discount taking the price to around £10,700 which sounded good, he also told us not to tell anyone about this price reduction. He advised us that all windows and frames would be replaced for this price and pointed out where "make good" plastering might have to be done around the windows when the frames were removed and advised that our fitted blinds would have to be removed for the work to be done. When the fitters arrived to do the work it turned out that they were not replacing the frames but fitted the new windows to the existing frames. I did not know this was happening until the work was well underway and so could not stop the work. I complained to Safestyle who said that the contract I had signed stated replacement windows only but I could see nothing on the contract stating this at the time I signed it and firmly believed the sales rep when he said we would have both replacement windows and frames, otherwise why would he advise us to remove our blinds and point out where any "make good" work might need to be done. It turns out that when the surveyor came round he included a change on a confirmation statement which said to use existing frames and he asked me to sign it as it contained the same information that the original sales rep had provided. Unfortunately I did sign it without realising I was signing away the original agreement for the frames to be replaced. My fault I know for not reading through it all properly but I believe I was misled and mis-sold the products and services as what I actually received was not what I originally signed up for. I would never have agreed to the price if I had known it was windows only. Caveat emptor!”

“Would give no stars, windows fitted in June 21, identified immediately that there were at least six issues, 8 visits and numerous calls later two issues are still not resolved (last time they brought the wrong colour). Customer service are appalling, have requested to speak to a manager on 5 occasions, this has been ignored, even tried to contact the CEO through LinkedIn and this was blocked. Have been through FENSA twice (essentially they say it is nothing to do with them). The whole company is rotten from top to bottom.”

“The customer service is nonexistent. Many calls and emails, promises and no results. The windows and doors are under warranty yet not being serviced/maintained. Once at last a worker came out, bless him- the outrageous smell- just waited till out again. What he did- instead of adjusting doors, he smeared some silicone around the glass panes. Instead of exchanging window handles was about to take mine and leave an even older-not only different style but worse condition handle. When I pointed this out he swiftly put back my handle and left. Leaving his old on the counter and saying he’ll be back. Months went by never heard again.”

“My Safestyle contract is number 1497347 - I’m a real customer. My windows and two doors were installed at the start of June. The crew that did the work were a very cheery bunch, shame they weren’t really paying attention. Since the install one of the doors has ‘dropped’ twice meaning it can’t be opened and the other once. Each time an engineer has to visit and I have to lose a day to sit at home and wait for them. What’s really prompted the terrible review is that they don’t seem surprised or bothered by that. On my call with them this morning I was told I’d have to wait until 13th September to get an engineer for the third time - a wait of three weeks to be able to open and close my back door. When I asked to speak to someone in authority I was told that a manager could call me back ‘but it won’t be today’. Could it possibly be the case that that’s because they’ve got a big list of other unhappy customers to call? Could it possibly be the case that the three week wait for an engineer is because they haven’t fitted a lot of other things properly the first time around? I’m sure there are better companies out there… I’m only about a third of the way through replacing all the windows as I renovate my new house. There’s no way at all that Safestyle will be doing the rest of them.”

“Terrible customer service. As soon as the paper is signed and they know they have a sale they do not care. As a single female I was bullied into signing for work I was not happy with by the installers. They said to worse what was wrong in the sheet and it will be corrected within 2 weeks. 3 months later and a weekly phone call us got nowhere! The depot manager came to look at the windows and agreed 8 panes of glass need replacing as they are not fit for purpose, and all the windows need taking out and re-fitting as there is rotten wood left surrounding the frames! Half the windows don’t open properly, and every week when I phone I’m fobbed off with ‘the depot is relocating’ therefore nothing can be done and no one can be contacted!”

“Absolute Joke - DO NOT USE SAFESTYLE! They are lovely until you place an order and take your deposit. They called and cancelled the installation at 1530 the day before the booking. Lots of broken promises to return calls. When I call I have top speak to the 'manager' dealing with my case who conveniently is never at work! The Manager that eventually called me back after 8 days, Dominic, is rude and unhelpful, he even told me he would drop my order off in my garden for me to fit them! Now I have fight to get my deposit refunded. DO NOT USE SAFESTYLE!!!!”

“SAVE YOUR MONEY .. STAY AWAY FROM SAFESTYLE UK !!!! Rocky start from the initial appointment = Says it all 0 stars awarded overall although seems a lucky escape at the end of the day looking at other peoples reviews! Bad experience with them from the initial appointment. Safe style are sexist, unreliable and unprofessional. The initial appointment I was told instantly they cannot install patio doors at my property. Even when my neighbours had the exact same patio doors installed months prior. The worse thing was the employee had a horrible attitude and also demanding that at the second appointment my male partner be there at the same time. Even when my partner and myself had agreed on the design to show the consultant. We arranged the second quotation appointment, my partner booked time off work to be available. Then for the appointment booked to apparently be a mistake. Benefit of the doubt was given we arranged a third quotation appointment. For them again to not show up … absolute waste of time!!! Please instead spend your hard earned cash on a different local upvc company! They appreciate your custom and satisfaction from the get go. Thankfully a DIFFERENT COMPANY turned up first time and have provided a quote . Straight away!”

“Paid top money for front and back doors doors do not lock properly waited six weeks for first appointment which they cancelled my wife took day off work unpaid not a text email or phone call to let us know they rescheduled for mid October without letting us know this is four months wait and who knows if they will turn up the sales woman Katherine hunnisett lies like a cheap watch. Feel let down by such a big company. To cap it all they send a fensa certificate with someone else’s name on it for five windows and a door clearly not us”
