South Yorkshire Windows Limited Opiniones 

Our experience with South Yorkshire Windows has been horrendous. After more than nine months, 12 visits, and repeated failed attempts to resolve defects, we paid £958.80 for an independent inspection. The resulting 122-page RISA report concluded that the installation was not satisfactory overall, identifying serious problems across our home:

Sliding patio doors (Safety hazard): Our two large sliding glass patio doors do not meet the wind-load requirements for their location. They can be pulled out of position by hand, creating a risk of heavy glass panels falling and crushing someone. The inspector advised restricting their use, and South Yorkshire Windows confirmed in writing that normal use must remain restricted.

Rear-bedroom windows (Fire hazard): The replacement windows present a serious fire-escape hazard, with an opening of approximately 390 mm in the relevant dimension. We could get through the previous windows, but neither of us can fit through the replacements, meaning we cannot use them to escape in a fire. Despite repeatedly raising this, South Yorkshire Windows has not addressed it at all.

Ventilation deficiencies: The inspection identified ventilation failures relating to Building Regulations Part F, which sets requirements for adequate ventilation and helps prevent condensation, damp and mould. Other defects affect weatherproofing and workmanship across multiple windows and composite doors. These are not minor cosmetic snags.

Guarantees & Paperwork Discrepancies:

We were sold Comp Door composite doors expecting a 10-year guarantee. Comp Door subsequently confirmed to us that electronic components have only 12 months' cover and hardware six years. These limitations were never explained when purchasing. More seriously, we have never been supplied with the correct insurance-backed guarantee paperwork. If South Yorkshire Windows ceased trading, we have no documentation establishing that we could claim against the protection we were promised. We have also identified discrepancies between the product specifications sold to us and what was supplied.

Complaints Handling:

Our formal complaint has continued for over 10 weeks without an acceptable resolution. It took more than nine weeks just to obtain the company's complaints procedure. Despite repeated requests, South Yorkshire Windows has not supplied a named certified ADR provider or a clear, workable independent dispute-resolution route, instead directing us to ASSURE. We have found the company's engagement evasive and incomplete.

We trusted this company and allowed numerous opportunities to put things right. Instead, we have been left with unsafe doors, bedroom escape openings we cannot use in a fire, ventilation defects, missing guarantee paperwork, significant personal expense and considerable stress.

Based on our experience, I would never use South Yorkshire Windows again or recommend them to anyone. Existing customers should check their written guarantees, insurance-backed protection, installation certificates and product specifications very carefully.

First class service from start to finish. Prompt response to enquiry and three stage process explained fully. Custom fitted traditional half glass panelled back door has just been installed - a straightforward, tidy job. Highly recommend.

Just had new windows, patio and door completed by South Yorkshire Windows and cannot fault them at all. From start to finish, great service- from fitting me in for a weekend fit due to my job and the fitters working tirelessly to complete the job and ensure it was a great standard of fit; ensuring it was fully tidy afterwards! Would highly recommend!

We had a new front door and bay window installed, The whole process of getting a quote to doing the measurements and installation was done in a very professional and efficient manner with no mess whatsoever and took the old windows and doors away. I would recommend them from my experience.

Just had our windows fitted by South Yorkshire Windows. From quoting through to fitting they have been a dream. Very professional and accommodating.

Their quote was competitive and the order process was very easy. We made a few changes between order and fitting and nothing was too much trouble.

Would highly recommend them!

Great quality work and great service provided when we had all our salon windows and door changed. The staff are all really polite and helpful when you are dealing with them. Everything was finished to a high standard and we are very happy with the finished result. I would highly recommend this company when anyone is looking for new windows and doors, I wouldn’t use anyone else.

We originally had our windows and doors fitted previously from this amazing company. We couldn't imagine going anywhere else. We were that satisfied we have recently had them back to fit our bifold doors. Amazing service from start to finish. Very professional from the consultation throughout the whole process.
Extremely neat and tidy with an immaculate finish.
They are very trust worthy and highly recommended.

We had Barry, Mokka & Taylor today to fit windows and a new front door, we are more than pleased every thing looks Fantastic!!!
The Guys worked so hard from start to finish and have done an excellent job.

Would definitely recommend this company and am looking forward to having our new conservatory fitted in a few weeks time.

After seeing windows fitted to our neighbours house by South Yorkshire Windows, we took the decision to go with the Company. From the initial quote, survey then fitting of the windows was a first class service. We were impressed by the fitting team, Baz, Mocca and Taylor who worked tirelessly and completed the full bungalow in the day. Seven windows and two doors. A first class job and would highly recommend the team and South Yorkshire Windows. Many thanks Alan & Linda

Can’t rate this company highly enough! From the initial home visit to the survey to the front door being fitted, always on time and highly professional.
Lewis who fitted the door arrived bang on time and took no time at all to remove the old door, fit the new door and tidy up. New door looks great, would definitely use this company again without hesitation.

Tried to use this technique.... They will not be getting any business from me, simply based on this.

Ringing a colleague for a "special price" in window sales is a classic, high-pressure negotiation tactic designed to make the homeowner feel they are getting an exclusive, unadvertised bargain. It artificially inflates perceived value to force an on-the-spot decision.

How the Tactic WorksThe technique typically follows a scripted psychological progression:The High Anchor: The salesperson quotes an initial, deliberately inflated retail price (e.g., £10,000).

The "Boss" Call: When the homeowner objects to the high price, the salesperson pretends to call a manager, director, or colleague to beg for a special, one-time discount.

The Illusion of Savings: The colleague "approves" a significant reduction (e.g., £4,000 off), framing the new price as a fantastic deal.

The False Urgency: The salesperson pushes the homeowner to sign the contract that night because the special price is supposedly only valid for today.

Industry Consensus & Reputation
Why buyers are wary: Consumers are increasingly educated on this double-glazing gimmick. Many home improvement review sites and consumer watchdogs expose this as a deceptive practice.

Modern sales approach: Reputable home improvement companies and sales trainers now prioritize value selling and consultative selling. This involves clearly explaining product benefits (like energy efficiency and security) and providing transparent, fair, and fixed quotes that customers have time to consider.

South Yorkshire Windows
Decided to have South Yorkshire Windows replace all the doors, windows frames on the house after a good referral and an acceptable quote. Early morning on the 7th May, Baz, Mocca and Taylor turned up and started the work. After working in the building trade myself for many years, I can say without a doubt that it was a shear pleasure to see such an experienced professional team work in unison together like this team, Baz and Mocca were obviously the more experienced in the team but Taylor like the rest never stopped. The work was exceptionally clean, no mess whatsoever – by 11:00 am practically all old windows doors and frames were out and replaced, in fact the old windows doors/frames were taken away by another employee of the company, around 5:00 pm all work was completed, aside from the bathroom window glass which could not be fitted due to being the wrong size, Baz assured us that once the glass was delivered it would be a 5 minute job to be fitted. True to his word the glass was fitted a couple of days later by Adam, another clean, efficient member of the company. In summary, the whole experience in my opinion was effortless, it was a joy to see such a clean professional team of dedicated workmen, work in complete unison together like that, whose primary motivation was customer satisfaction. I can say without reservation, that I would highly recommend South Yorkshire Windows, especially an experienced team like Baz, Mocca, Taylor and not forget Adam …..Outstanding from start to finish.

From the sales man to the fitters where all very friendly and helpful .i was promised the windows would be fitted for the twenty eight of April and they was good as there word .the windows look great.i would recommend them .
