Good product, poor and chaotic customer service
Been waiting almost a year for the blinds to go on my two large roof lanterns -all paid for. Called and been promised multiple times that they are coming and no one turns up. Finally they got to grips with this. The roof lanterns were great -but the product is let down by chaotic central admin and customer service.

Hi Clare,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re very sorry for the delays and frustration you've experienced with your rooflight blinds, especially after such a long wait.
We’re pleased to hear that you're happy with the roof lanterns themselves – we take great pride in the quality and design of our products. However, we completely understand how disappointing it must have been to experience issues with follow-up service.
We want to be transparent and explain that our central admin and customer service teams have recently gone through some personnel changes, and we’ve also undergone a factory relocation. These transitions, while essential for our long-term growth and service improvements, have unfortunately caused temporary disruption and meant that we haven’t been operating to our usual high standards.
We’re now working hard to get everything fully back on track and have taken steps to improve our internal processes and communication so that we can deliver the level of service our customers rightly expect.
Thank you again for your patience and for choosing Roof Maker. Your feedback helps us improve, and we truly value your continued support.
Kind regards

Poor customer service
Hi, bought 4 roof lights from this company. One of them has been defective, water drops inside the glazing unit and now there is a crack which is developing day by day.
Customer service department does not seem to be working at all. Had to wait for the service engineer to come on site for 6 weeks from original report and now since the visit have been waiting for 2 months for the replacement unit to arrive and to be fitted. Clearly a manufacturing fault.

Tili contacted me on an internet-lead follow-up and was informative and empathetic. It's rare to consider a sales call enjoyable, but this was.

Stella the superstar …
Having contacted the company regarding my 15 year old roof lantern I enquired about the replacement of spare parts. I spoke to Stella who was extremely helpful polite and efficient in locating the now obsolete parts. To my surprise she found some! I received a message from Stella saying the parts would be delivered the next day from enquiry to delivery 6 days. I can highly recommend this company for their outstanding service and many thanks to Stella your a legend🌟

Failure to respond to calls and emails
Update 16/6/25 - Regarding the below issue I’m pleased to be able to update that within 24hrs of posting I was contacted directly by the MD Kishnan Bhogaita who immediately took charge of the issue, apologised profusely over what happened and we’ve been able to arrange a service visit to assess and resolve the problem on 2nd July.
It’s important to reflect when things go well as it is when they don’t and Krishnans personal response to my problem has been fantastic and restored my faith in Roof Maker. 🤞 that the issue is finally resolved after the engineer visit. Thank you Kishnan.
2/6/25 - We had a large electric roof light installed in October 2023 and when failed to open in December 2024 our installer contacted roof maker and eventually in January 2025 they sent out engineers to fix the problem and replace one of the chain motors.
At the beginning of April 2025 the same motor failed again and wouldn't open (the roof light lifting slightly on the opposite side before closing again) my installer tried to contact customer services on a number of occasion without any luck or proper response.
I called on the 22nd April and left a message and then emailed on 13th May explaining the situation and included a short video showing the problem, and again on the 28th May with neither email getting any response. I've also called twice today (2nd June) and heard a message saying they can't take my call and to leave a voice mail which I did.
Lastly through Trust Pilot I saw the email of the customer services manager Emma Mackay and have emailed her direct.
So far I have had a very expensive window that has not worked properly for a number of weeks and whilst we've had some lovely weather we've been unable to open it for ventilation in our kitchen.
All I want is for someone to take ownership of this issue at Roof Maker and help us solve the problem... that shouldn't be too much to ask surely..???

Dear CMDS,
Thank you for taking the time to leave your review, and we're truly sorry to hear about your recent experience. This clearly hasn’t lived up to the high standards of service and product reliability that we aim to deliver.
We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience and frustration caused by the repeated issue with your electric rooflight motor, and more importantly, for the lack of timely communication from our side. We completely understand how disappointing it must be to have an investment like this underperform—especially during periods of good weather when ventilation is so important.
Please rest assured, your feedback has been escalated directly to our Managing Director, who is now personally overseeing your case to ensure it’s resolved as quickly as possible. I have requested some details from you regarding your order so that we can investigate what caused the communication breakdown and the recurrence of the motor issue, and we’ll be in touch shortly with a clear resolution plan.
At Roof Maker, we’re committed to providing not just innovative, high-spec rooflight solutions but also dependable aftercare and responsive support—and we’re sorry we fell short here. We value your patience and the opportunity to put things right.
Kind regards

100% recommended.
I also opted for a clearance stock item after initially going down the route of a custom size lantern.
Really happy with the Slimline lantern and I used the money I saved buying one of the discounted stock rooflights to pay for Roof-Maker to install it.
My own builder could have done it but having the manufacturer install it makes more sense to me…you get extra warranty also.
100% recommended.
