From initial contact to completion of installation I found the company to be completely professional. My wife and myself are over the moon with the quality of both the doors and windows and were impressed with the expert way in which they were installed. An excellent job and an excellent company.
This is the second time we used Solarframe. They replaced our windows three years ago. This time we asked them to add a window in the kitchen and widen the one in our sitting room. This was not an easy job, our house is 150 years old with 20” thick stone walls. Solarframe rose to the occasssion by providing diligent and hardworking builders to create the spaces in the walls and returning to fit new windows and complete the job with plastering and finishing. The job was not without problems, understandably, but Solarframe stuck with it to resolve them and provided an excellent final outcome. We are very happy
We had a single story extension done by SolarFrame. It involved taking out the wall at the back of the house and a dividing wall inside the house. This would open up a large kitchen/ entertaining space. Where we went wrong was not having every last detail in writing on the contract and trusting that when the rep said oh yes we can do that for you, that wasn’t actually the case.We were expecting that they would plaster the whole space, not just the new bits. We ended up agreeing to extra work with the plasterer, £400 for 2 nine feet walls. SF knew we were putting a kitchen in part of this large room and they asked for an electrical plan to help the electrician place his wires. I sent this and was told this was perfect, thank you. We were down for 12 sockets. No where did it say what type of socket and placing of sockets, just that they would do 12 sockets. They knew there was an island from the electrical plan and that there were sockets on there. The electrician arrived and started work following the plan. He looked at the boiler ( which had already been passed as ok by the rep and the surveyor) and advised us that it needed upgrading in order for us to get a certificate for the work done. That cost us a further £600. He proceeded to do the wiring and he did put in one higher voltage wire to a hob before SF realised he was putting wires in that they felt weren’t part of the contract. He then only continued with the wiring that SF allowed. This left us with no high voltage wires to feed the oven and microwave. We fought this and they admitted that it was an oversight and they should have made it clear that they were only supplying basic sockets and they were sorry. This is appalling. They also refused to channel the wires into the floor to the island. When we did have issues that they couldn’t back away from they did everything in their power to try and resolve them as cheaply as possible. The brickwork was sodden from heavy rain before the roof was put on but that didn’t stop them boarding and plastering a week later. That can’t be right. We were told that this would be a room we could use all year round but so far we have found the room to be freezing. We’ve turned the heating up but the rest of the house feels like a sauna but it’s still cold in the extension. We asked for bigger radiators than required but I do wonder if either the calculation was wrong or the insulation isn’t as good as they sell it. Will be interesting to see how hot it gets in the summer. We have made it into a lovely looking room but the journey there has been very stressful because of SF’s attitude. If you do choose SF to do your extension don’t sign any contract until you have really mulled over it and it says exactly what you want. Every last detail. Really push for extra heating as it will be cold just like an old fashioned conservatory. All the plumbers, electricians and builders are subcontracted and they are have a very precise list of what they are doing and they won’t budge from the list. It has cost us an extra £1800 for unforeseen extras. We are still waiting for paperwork, building regs, electrical certificates, guarantee etc.
The whole experience of using SolarFrame to fit our solid, tiled conservatory roof and new windows has been faultless. Everyone we dealt with at SolarFrame has been friendly and knowledgeable and has consistently done what they said they were going to do, when they said they were going to do it. Big thanks to the installers Dean and Dayne, Gary the electrician, Terry's plastering team and Chris the Technician. All of them worked really hard to a very high standard. Not to forget Kat who coordinated it all and kept us updated daily. I would highly recommend SolarFrame.
Absolutely blown away by the service from Solarframe! From the very first visit, Sajid was absolutely incredible – he didn’t just measure up, he walked me through every option for styles and colours, and even asked questions I’d never even considered. That level of care was exactly why I chose Solarframe over other companies I had quotes from. All down to Sajid!Wayne then came out for a few final checks, and I was introduced to Connor, my installation coordinator, who kept me updated every step of the way. It honestly made the whole process feel effortless and stress-free.When it came to fitting, Johne and Perry were amazing – so friendly, approachable, and nothing was too much trouble. They answered all my questions I had also!The result looks incredible, and I can’t stop admiring my new windows and doors! I had 12 windows, 3 doors and French doors fitted. If you’re thinking about upgrading, seriously – go with Solarframe. They’ve absolutely smashed it.11079
Having a new build extension to our home was a new experience for us. SolarFrame had been recommended by family and the fact that the project would be managed, spurred us on to contact them. Dave Barrow was very helpful. We showed him the architect’s plan drawn up 5 years earlier which he adapted to the use of their sustainable products and to the latest technology. SolarFrame then dealt with surveying and applying for planning permission. Our go to contact Julie kept us updated and from the first day we cannot praise the builders who were excellent! They made sure everything flowed and kept the area tidy, my husband was very impressed with the brickwork! It wasn’t long before the shell was up and insulated with sky lights and patio doors. The Electrician was not long after giving us choices but sharing the advantages/disadvantages so we could make an informed decision. In 2 days the plasterers did a superb and professional job. Finally, SolarFrame sent their technician to clean up the frames and windows and finish off anything that was needing attention. Thank you All for making our dream even better than we had imagined.
