Hometec UK Reviews 

I have used Hometec for over 20 years. The products are always high quality and the installers experienced. Their aftersales service is excellent and they will always come back to sort out any issues.

A 5 star experience with Hometec, couldn't be happier with the professional, friendly and high quality service they provided - over the moon with the finished product! Thank you so much!

We have all our windows and doors installed by Essex based company - Hometec. All goes smoothly, extremely satisfied with the installation Team. They went above and beyond to make sure no damage is done to façade/internal interior, have not left any mess behind etc. Quality was the priority. And waiting time for the factory line was unexpectedly short. Personally I think it is one of the most reliable windows company in Essex.

Stephen Mcalpine from Home Tech has been great in fixing a door chip and tile chip in my new build. He's patient, thorough and great at matching colours so everything looks like new again! Thank you!

We had our windows and doors all fitted by them last year but then we had issues with a lantern window in our kitchen although they didn't install this at first, our builders did. After much rudeness and arguing they charged us another £600 to come and refit the lantern window and now we have a small leak coming through our ceiling! They want nothing to do with it, and will not help us in trying to repair it. We were told it was a favour? Who pays £600 for a favour? Avoid this company at all costs and the woman who answers the phone who I understand is somehow related to the owner of the company is so rude it's shocking! I will be contacting my friend at the Echo as I am now worried that all my windows and doors they fitted were a favour too with no comeback if anything goes wrong with them?

This was a diabolical experience - Warning do NOT pay any money up front to this outfit - we did and a year after we were still trying to get them to do our
conservatory but excuse after excuse and we eventually had to force them to return our money by taking legal action. They actually knocked down our old existing structure and then told us they were raising the price by 10K. We told them to clear off and they did leaving our garden in a very dangerous state. This was also a contravention of the architect's instructions which they also could not wriggle out off. The DGCOS were a waste of time too and just look at their ratings too? All in it together. They are the worst outfit I have ever come across and looking a their reviews I am not alone. Be careful, use another company. You HAVE been warned.

Our experience wasn’t great with this company. To start with the sales person just did the sale without any consideration of the client’s needs- that’s how it felt for us. He sold us handless door (which we were not aware of) after having a conversation with us about a baby at home and how important it is for us quiet and simple door operation when coming in and out when holding our son. So please be aware and clarify if you need a handle on both sides of the door.

The delivery was delayed by 4 weeks.

After installation we were left with plaster patches from the inside and outside requiring paint job. Maybe we were being naive not knowing this but we lived in a new built apartment previously so we had no idea we will need to organise a paint job afterwards. Indoors is fine and we did it ourselves, however, outside we don’t know the colour as the house was built & painted before we moved in. Its an off white pastel colour which is not easy to match. Again, something that was not explained to us during the sale process. When we called for explanation we were pointed to the contract where they take no liability for damage caused. They did send an installer back to sort out plaster as it was cracked and not level. After that adjustment, we were bombarded with emails and phone calls to pay the remainder even though we were still waiting for replacement glass that needed to be installed.

Lastly, when repainting the walls inside, we noticed that at the top the were massive gaps left causing drafts into the house. There was no apology about this, they just said they will fix this when installing the replacement glass. So 3 weeks we had to live with drafts during winter months.

The only positive is that the door itself it nice looking even though its a bit tough to operate from the inside, we are getting used to it.

I would not, however, recommend this company for the simple absence of customer care and support.

This company do not care about you once they have your money..
I had several issues and they really don’t rush to correct them.. their engineers don’t know what they are doing half the time and the receptionist is not very nice and a very good liar.

Things go wrong that sometimes can’t be helped, it’s the way it is dealt with that counts and Hometec really don’t care about you once they have your money. I would not recommend under any circumstances.

Shambles of a company. Della is the most rude and unprofessional personal I know, the staff consistently lie about my orders being “late”. Save yourself some money, go somewhere else.

Utterly useless company. I suspect that they are simply middlemen for the manufacturers as they know aboslutely nothing about windows.

I paid £900 to have an "Acoustic" 41dB "Sound Proof" window installed. I measured the before and after compared to my 20 year old double glazing. The difference was negligble. No difference at all.

I have called Hometec 8 times, I have spoken to Terry and Jack and been passed from pillar to post and no one wants to take responsibility for an unfit for purpose product. Jack has advised me to 'Adjust' the window or to try a triple glazed window, obviously I'm not going to put a third window in and the window fitter, who did an excellent job, has shown me that there is no adjustment available on these windows.

Hometec have REFUSED to send a window engineer out as "I'm too far away". This window is completly unfit for purpose and I would avoid these people at all costs. Once they have your money they have zero interest in you or your problems whatsoever!

I had deposit placed on many items during lockdown I collect two of I went today to collect the last item. I had one item left over and it was sold on myself not informed also was refused a refund or my balance payment placed on new item . I was so annoyed so dissatisfied and disappointed with attitude of manager I pointed out to him that the shop was open and closed during locking down and I picked two my items up when they were open at different times during the lockdown !! Also no one contacted myself about the third item he just kept repeating like a rebot your payment is gone you can’t have it back also no mention of the item he sold on myself and didn’t contact me and kept my deposit . I informed him I will take this further how can you treat a customer who has spent a lot of money with your firm in such bad customer service ?. Be warned stay clear of hometec uk very poor customer service and how they talk to there customers a rogue firm when comes to customer service and honestly regarding customers money !!!!!!!!!!!!

appalling unscrupulous conmen....

Cold called my elderly in-laws, pressured them to sign a contract for windows they didnt want or need. Had to get Trading Standards involved. Salesman Jack Cronin has now set up as Endeavour home improvements. Avoid avoid avoid......

Had arranged for someone to come out and look at our leaking conservatory which is still under warranty. Had to wait 2 weeks for an available appointment. When the fitter hadn't turned up during the given timeslot I rang the office. The lady that took my call was extremely rude. I would not recommend or use Hometech again based on my experience of speaking to this lady. As the first point of contact I think it's important to be polite and courteous. This lady has put me off Hometech more than the leak!!

If I could have give no stars I would have! Where do I start........ we had Hometec do our 1st extension. The fitters were very hit & miss (mostly miss) we had a fitter sit in his van for 2 hours. None of the window boards matched not the same widths/depths. On our 1st floor we had french doors with a glass balcony so the side lights needed to be high enough for the windows to open. When the balcony was fitted the windows didn’t open. Now this was all finished including monocouche render, inside all new carpets & plastered/painted.
They came round to inspect with a view of offering some silly money to leave as is. We said no. So consequently the side lights were ripped out ruining everything including the render. So I now had to have beading inside to hide the damage & the outside needed to be redone at a cost of £200 which they were supposed to pay the renderer directly. They didn’t so it was left to us.
We had a 2nd extension & a set of bifolds didn’t fit so to save remaking the doors we had to get our builder to cut some brick off so the doors fit. Which they did at another cost of £180 to us. Suffice to say I was dubious about using this company again, but we wanted everything to match, so I gave the benefit of the doubt. Again we had a very angry & aggressive fitter who snatched paperwork from my hand & told my builder on the phone to ‘F... Off’ on the phone, very unprofessional & intimidating. He was trying to pass blame. Ultimately if they were measured correctly they would have fit!
Now I took these costs off my bill (I have saved this company money by not pursuing for compensation) or have them make the doors again to fit, which they REFUSE to accept even though I’ve sent invoices.
They are quick enough to take your money, but beware!!!
They should have come out twice now to adjust the bifold door which has dropped. They cancelled the appointments at the last minute by sending an email saying I still owe them £380........
AVOID

We had our windows installed 3 years ago by Hometec. We had problems from the start with fitters not turning up on time, lack of communication from the office and then a bad instal. They came back 3 times after to correct things but were not done correctly so we gave up. Since the windows were never installed properly we have had to live with wind blowing through gaps around the windows, trim coming off and the nail in the cofin after 3 years the bay windows started to leak. It has taken months of arguing, fitters then coming out for half days here and there and them still not completing the job properly so other fitters had to come out to correct the other fitters work. A complete lack of ownership and lack of communication, back chatting from staff and the owner. They have now repaired and re fitted the windows, however, have caused structural damage to our bay window which they are refusing to pay for. I have photographic evidence of all this. Use this company at your own risk... oh and they are not covered by fensa so no official checks are carried out on their work! (Re the comments below,they take no ownership for the fact I have video and photographic proof of the poorly installed windows, the proof the wind blew through the poorly fitted trim and lack of expanding foam around the windows. The fact they sub contract the work to fitters and they got rid of the fitters that installed our windows but wouldn't admit the poor work they did. The owner of this company is rude and unpleasant if you try and correct him with proof! Awful company and use at your own risk!!!) We have had to accept still the poorly fitted windows and at somepoint have to get them replaced by a decent company. Also we have never been provided with a fenca cert and on checking the fenca site we were never registered with them!!!

We had windows, front door and cladding supplied and fitted to our Bungalow by Hometec.
The guys Stuart, Ryan and Tony were very polite and did a professional job, they were very tidy and were a pleasure to deal with.
We had one small issue with a mark on a window sash but that was replaced within days.
Would highly recommend.

Thank you so much for the beautiful windows and doors Hometec fitted for us. From the Salesman, Surveyor and Fitting team (Stuart & Ryan) we have received exceptional service - absolutely BRILLIANT. So glad that we decided to purchase our windows and doors from Hometec, we wouldn't hesitate in recommending them.
Thank You.

Fantastic door, great price. Bill, our fitter, was a miracle worker, especially with our dodgy door frame.

Hometec UK supplied and fitted all new double glazing. We’re extremely happy with the services and the quality of your windows and doors. We have already recommended you to our friends. Thanks again, Ricky.

Thank you Hometec and your team, I’m very happy with my new windows and door. Much appreciated
