Really disappointed with Roof Maker
Really disappointed with Roof Maker. As an architect I have specified their products a number of times however I’ve stopped including their rooflights in my projects. Typically, I had one installed in my own house and the customer service / aftercare was very poor. I complained about the compriband seals becoming all curled up after a hot spell and the complaint was completely ignored / dismissed. I’m now left with a window that looks utterly shit and broken, the seals are not functioning and the wind whistles every storm or high wind. The warranty is useless as I’d need to, at my cost, remove the rooflight, send it back and then have it fixed, then again at my own cost, have it reinstalled and the roof slates repaired. It took 5 people to install it in the first place due to the weight. (2.5m x 1.5m). A better response would have been for an installer to come out and remove the existing seals that remain and replace them without having to send the window back to the factory. This would save me £000’s and provide me with something I actually paid for in the first place.

I recently met Roof-Maker Ltd at the NEC show and was assisted by Leebaan, who was extremely professional and knowledgeable throughout. He took the time to explain all the options clearly and helped me choose the right 5m bifold door for my project. Which is a Garden room.
From the initial conversation at the show to the purchase and follow-up, the whole process has been smooth and efficient. I was really impressed with the level of customer service, product quality, and attention to detail.
It’s refreshing to deal with a company that genuinely values its customers and delivers on its promises. I would highly recommend Roof-Maker Ltd and especially commend Leebaan for his professionalism and excellent service.
I purchased a roof light with a control…
I purchased a roof light with a control panel censor to close when it rained. I ordered in jet black. July 2024.
The glass lid was not aligned correctly,, so more of a border showed one side than the other, and the finish in the corners was rough, which they attempted to colour in with one of their special pens to hide the finish!
The control panel stopped working after a couple of weeks.
I had over around four months 6 replacements, as it kept blowing. I felt they were blaming me at one point, but eventually they found out the wattage was not high enough, and a replacement eventually fitted on 5 June 2025.
It's great when it works!
Two weeks ago the control panel stopped working! I called on a Monday left a message and was told Richard would call me. I called the next day and spoke with Richard, he read all my notes from September 2024. He offered to send me a new panel. I asked if they'd fit it too, as they had done before. I was told no as theyre not electricians. An electrician would cost me money, and it is not my fault that it has broken down again. You have a years cover for electrics, supposedly. He was going to speak with his superiors and get back to me. I heard nothing in a week, so I called again the following week, left another message as he was in another meeting.
Two weeks tomorrow. Still not heard nothing!!!
My original order was jet black, when they were going to replace the lid because of the alignment issue and finish, they brought a new one down. The fitter realised it was not the same colour. The one that had been fitted was graphite grey!! Because I'd emailed before to let them know the control panel wasn't working, they wouldn't been able to fit it anyway!
They ended up fitting a whole new roof light, right colour, but the finish was all marked inside, a complete line, so far down on all sides, when i was assured it was perfect. New finishes were arranged to be fitted, the whole roof light had to come off again!
The communication is awful within the company.
I dealt with Kishan who was quite high up, and Jade in customer services originally, and they are both not there any more.
My whole experience has been awful and the unit itself costs alot of money. The service has been dreadful.
When it works,its brilliant.
So im still waiting ..... its now 9 November 2025

We received a very friendly service once again in replacing the motor of our skylight to make it work again. Roofmakers were also honest enough to be in touch to let us know they had charged VAT twice by mistake and to check how they should refund us. Otherwise we would not have realised. Well done, Roofmakers!

Expert Guidance
I would like to thank Abbs Jamal for his patient guidance while arranging four roof lights for my attic extension.
Abbs always answers his phone quickly, is very well informed on all aspects of each product. He was exceptionally patient helping me make my decision.
Roof Maker produce clear high quality materials to support decision making, e.g., the installation guides. Abbs was very clear on how the price structure works and very professional throughout.
He clearly cares about his customers getting a good answer and understanding their options.
Highly recommended.
