Professional, skilled, great communication from the on-site team - honestly, the best workmen I’ve ever had. They left the place tidy and neat. Thanks guys! They did a great job on a dreary, winter’s day with a smile. I love the new porch, which was a decent price. Honestly though, the sales guy Tom and the crew of Cal, Jake and Aaron were great. After having had a bad experience before with a different company, I’ll be using Phair Windows to replace my windows in the near future as well.

EXCELLENT Based on 184 reviews Posted on SimiApril 22, 2026. Updated review. Really appreciated how great Rob was, calling me directly after we had a negative experience with a quote. Which i realise now is probably a one-off and doesn’t reflect the company. Went such a long way by having a conversation about it and apologising, even sending a really lovely package and voucher. Completely restored my faith. Honestly such a lovely kind business owner, who clearly goes above and beyond for his business. It’s honestly so rare these days to find someone who is willing to admit where things could have been better and trying to rectify. Thanks again Rob, honestly really appreciate it!Posted on Jane BenskinApril 15, 2026. Phair windows are an amazing small friendly company. My instalation of 12 windows began September 2026. Unfortunately my husband was rushed into hospital the night before they turned up and spent 3 weeks there. Robert and Jake from Phair were amazing, caring people. The fitters were considerate, tidy workers. I had no concerns leaving them to get on with the job. They also helped to move heavy furniture.I would have no hesitation in recommending this professional caring company. The photo is the completed job. From a satisfied customer Jane and KeithPosted on Maulik DarjiApril 7, 2026. Excellent service! They replaced both glass panels and fixed my door, making it feel much more secure. The team was friendly, reliable, and worked efficiently. I’m very happy with the result and would definitely recommend them.Posted on Archie TMarch 26, 2026. We had 2 doors and a flag window fitted in January '26, and the job was done to a high standard and very efficiently. Team on the job we're extremely professional and courteous. Was so pleased with the work, called them in again to fit what is the last window in need of upgrading. To say I was disappointed on the second occasion would be understating it, without going into detail as I think that would be unfair, because the way Phair Windows handled my issue was brilliant, I cannot stress enough the response was very prompt, very apologetic and completely satisfied us with the attitude and manner they handled themselves. In light of this I would not hesitate in using these guys again and recommending to anyone. Customer service outstanding, thank you. First class.Posted on Mike PookMarch 16, 2026. We needed all of the windows at our house replaced. As we were new to the area we were shooting in the dark a bit regarding the selection of a supplier but were attracted to Phair Windows due the the overwhelmingly positive reviews online. They quoted very quickly and we were pleasantly surprised at the price they offered. The work was completed to an extremely high standard and their team of installers were very helpful and took great care with their work. We’re delighted with the outcome and I have no hesitation at all in recommending them wholeheartedlyPosted on Natalia SmolikMarch 11, 2026. Phair windows ltd Tahank you so much . From the day one they been absolutely brilliant. Tom came and gave us a honest price without pushing us to buy windows form Phair windows, that was very nice as I had quotes from different companies before and they put a lot of pressure on me to buy windows from them. Then Boris send Us project proposal very quickly and we agreed fitting dates (3 days for 9 windows) . We had Lincoln & Michael fitting all windows and they been absolutely amazing , they finish everything in just 2 days ! What a amazing team 😊Posted on Ross FarrellFebruary 27, 2026. Excellent service. Polite, clean, tidy, and a very fair price. I’d recommend to a friend.Posted on George BirrellFebruary 19, 2026. Excellent work ethic, friendly and professional leadership and the work was carried out with no issues and was as expected and guaranteedPosted on Jenny RyanFebruary 6, 2026. Our fitters Michael and Lincoln were just brilliant. They worked non-stop from arrival to finish and checked with us at various stages to ensure that we were fully aware of any reasons for differences in window finishes/trims etc and fully satisfied once the work was completed. They were very patient and took time to answer all our questions fully. They tidied everything away, even sweeping the patio to ensure no bits were left behind. I hadn't heard of the company before and took a chance on them after reading their reviews. I would have no hesitation in using them again and would definitely recommend them to others.Posted on ian LeithFebruary 3, 2026. Contacted Phair Windows at the turn of the year as our " composite front door " was falling apart & couldnt open or shut very easily . Tom came out the following day , we chose the door we wanted & the fitter measured up a couple of days later . My door was fitted yesterday , the door is of a sturdier build and took both fitters to carry it , the old one was carried away by one fitter .Both of the fitters very professional , courteous & left no mess behind .... We are really pleased with our new front door . I have communicated on a regular basis with Borris and my queries have been addressed in a timely manner . I would have no hesitation in recommending this family run business to my friends & family for any future doors or windows .
