truhouse. Simply windows and doors ® - Stroud Reviews 88

Excellent service and installation - very impressed with the end to end process - thank you

The sales team are friendly & helpful & the installers couldn’t have been more efficient.
Great company & would highly recommend.

I chose Truhouse because they came across as professional and trustworthy, but parts of the aftercare have made me regret that decision.

Not long after the front door was installed, it became very difficult to close properly — especially in cold weather. Quite a few times we thought it was shut when it actually wasn’t. The issue turned out to be partly how the door had initially been hung and partly due to a faulty lock. To be fair, Truhouse did come out and rehang it free of charge and replaced the lock, and the engineers who came were helpful and professional.

The problem is that the fault with the lock had already caused damage to the frame, as the bolts didn’t recess when they should have on several occasions. Even though Truhouse replaced the lock under warranty (and so acknowledged there was a fault), they said the damage to the frame was “accidental during use” and that changing the frame would require a full re-install at my cost for labour.

When I asked about getting the frame sorted, I was told:

“…the visible damage to the door frame falls outside of what our warranty covers. Our terms make clear that while we cover manufacturing and installation faults, aesthetic damage or wear caused through use or external factors is not included. In this case, the warranty does not extend to repairing or replacing the door frame itself.”

The damage wasn’t caused by external factors, but by a faulty lock they had supplied. In any case, that distinction is legally irrelevant to my consumer rights.

The email went on to say:

“Unfortunately, the original manufacturer of the door has now ceased trading, which means that replacement parts are no longer available – even on a chargeable basis. This limits what we are able to offer in terms of repair or replacement.”

That turned out not to be correct. I knew who the manufacturer was and called them within minutes of receiving the email — they confirmed they were still trading. Even if they hadn’t been, my contract was with Truhouse, not their supplier, so it shouldn’t have affected my rights.

I’ve since spoken to Trading Standards, who advised that, as I’ve been unable to reach a resolution with Truhouse, the next step would be to pursue Alternative Dispute Resolution. It’s a real shame it’s come to that, as the engineers themselves were excellent, but the company’s response overall has been disappointing.

Good job. They were polite, timely, neat and tidy.

Adam and Steve were great. They did a very neat and tidy job. The showroom and office staff were also fantastic and helped me with all my queries prior to the work starting.

We have just had the first four windows of a complete replacement installed by truhouse and I wanted to give a shout out to the installers Adam and Steve for the fantastic job they did. They are professional, skilled, well organised as a team and very friendly guys to have in the house. Any questions we had were helpfully answered and their attention to detail is excellent, working with us to ensure the finished installation was to our complete satisfaction. Adam and Steve are great representatives of truhouse the company.
The final doors and windows will be installed in a couple of days and although we know a different crew will be coming we have absolute confidence that truhouse will do the same excellent job. When complete I will update or send a new review on the whole experience of using truhouse, which briefly said has been exceptional. More later!

Adam and Steve did a great job. Excellent finish and very tidy

We had a bedroom window fitted. The pre-sales and instalation process was effective and informative. The fitters Adam and Steve arrived 1 1/2 hours before suggested time and worked efficiently, cleanly and were informative and polite. We’ve used truHouse before and would use again.
Photos show new window without final finish to wall.

Adam and Steve were nothing short of brilliant. Five days of installation handled with total professionalism. Each room left spotlessly clean and nothing was too much bother. We are delighted with our windows and would thoroughly recommend Truhouse.

Adam and Steve were fantastic! What a lovely team they are. Thanks so much for your excellent work.

Efficient . Friendly . Careful . Well fitted . Happy with product

This is the second time we’ve dealt with Truhouse and we can’t recommend them enough. They are informative helpful with a range of products to suit our diverse needs. This time we had 2 ultimate Rose sash windows installed by Steve and Josh. They were skilled, considerate , tidy with attention to detail as well as polite and a delight to have in our home. Thank you.

Adam & Steve from Truhouse Windows fitted 2 flush casement windows in 2 bedrooms in the house. The job was completed quickly & the work was to a very high standard. This is the 2nd lot of windows we’ve had Truhouse fit & we can’t fault the service. Would definitely use again & would have no hesitation in recommending.

Great service throughout the process from quick initial sales visit, followup detailed survey then two-day installation from Dan, Adam & Steve. Quality finish and neighbours all saying how smart looking.

Truhouse were a pleasure to do business with. From quotation to installation the team were professional, friendly and responsive to any questions we had. Our installation team - Steve, Dan and Josh - were fantastic. They really cared about the quality of their work and went out of their way to look after us. The team exceeded our expectations and we couldn’t recommend them more highly.

The fitting team were exemplary, so much care taken of our floors even flower beds. Very courteous, tidy, focused on doing things well. And the windows look very good! A warmer winter assured!

The fitters were very helpful, polite and efficient and the quality of the doors supassed my expectations. Thank you Truhouse.

Excellent service from start to finish. Customer service team very attentive and amenable. Installers professional with minimal disruption and impressive finish. Couldn't recommend more highly.
