VELFAC is the UK’s leading brand of composite windows and doors, specified for the slim and uniform frames, contemporary style and exceptional thermal performance. At VELFAC, we are dedicated to creating socially useful products that bring visibility, daylight and fresh air into people lives, while reducing the need for energy for heating, lighting and mechanical ventilation. We are working persistently to optimise all stages of our products' life cycle – and, with a wide range of focused initiatives, we want to have a major influence on the common effort towards a more sustainable future for the building industry. For example: We only use FSC®-certified wood in the production of windows and doors, and all the wood tratments are water based; 2/3 of the aluminium used in VELFAC profiles is manufactured using renewable energy sources, and approx. 40% comes from recycled sources; The VELFAC slim frame profile allows up to 15% more light to enter the interior, providing a better daylight contribution and a reduced need of artificial light; Our windows have an expected lifespan of up to 60 years if maintained properly. This helps to reduce the turnover of building materials and therefore reduce the carbon footprint on the environment. For more info about our windows and doors visit www.velfac.co.uk

One of our doors had suffered some transport damage prior to install, it was around covid and as it was cosmetic it's taken a while for me to get round to contacting Velfac.
Charles Woke was great, was promptly called soon after by Penny to arrange a date the following week.
Though not severe the damage was in a few tricky places and I suspected they might even recommend to replace the door.
The technicians however did a superb job, they did have to repaint the whole side but now it looks brand new.
Great service from start to finish - what more could you want?

Excellent friendly professional customer service.

Really grateful for the service provided by Stephen Phippard. Mine was not a straightforward enquiry and yet I could not have asked for more helpful and comprehensive support. The issue in question involved sourcing replacements for products well over a decade in age and Stephen's help proved invaluable.

Very helpful to me as a last resort after Hyde were not willing to help us even though we had only been in the house for less than a year.

Reply from VELFAC
Velfac have been very helpful in sourcing the correct parts and Michal has gone the extra mile to ensure all needs are met. Much appreciated.

Just had velfac windows and doors installed by the team at goose joinery.
We’re really happy with the product and services provided, and they’ve been very helpful with the minor snagging issues we’ve had.

Reply from VELFAC
Excellent customer service. Happy to answer all my queries even though the previous owner had installed the doors and windows over ten years ago. They keep records of all orders so easy to match colours and find replacement parts. I recommend.

One of the most helpful companies I've come across for after-sales service. Karen S was very fast to respond on every enquiry and kindly posted us the spare parts we needed along with service manual. Top marks!

Spent £17k on velfac and rational (both Dovista products) windows and doors via uk distributor ADW. These have been in place about a year and a half in an extension. Came back from a week away at Easter and internal pane of sliding door has cracked. Dovista, velfac uk and adw simply don’t want to know. Not covered by the 12 year warranty and £2k to replace. Extremely unhelpful, no one out to look at it, just suggesting settlement of building (nonsense) or thermal movement and don’t want to hear anything more. Really regretting using them. Our building company no longer using them as a result

We had mislaid a key for our windows. They responded to my phone call extremely quickly and in a very friendly manner. I got the impression that their customer support is excellent

We had an older system
Velfac 200 installed in two house and after 15 years the seals are swelling , handles won’t close . Main door handle broken . We cannot get replacement and as we live in Ireland no back up service. We are beyond disappointed.
We went for this system the most expensive of our options and we seriously regret the decision now

I was very grateful for the excellent customer service I received regarding the delivery of a door handle by a specific date.

I placed my order on line this morning with customer services and I have been told that the parts that I want are coming out in tonight's post.
Fantastic customer service team, particularly Lesley Millar.

Extremely impressed by Velfac's response to an issue we had with our door locking mechanism. Excellent communications and a very quick turn around when we really needed it.
Many thanks. Ryan

Well done VELFAC, thanks to Mark and Sean it looks like a resolution is possible. Really appreciate your time and effort for this ongoing situation.
Previously: Terrible after sales service. Despite providing the complete history and email trail of how they had patched up and repaired a problem at installation and having provided the name of their installer that failed to come out and fix the problem on 3 occasions, they are just not interested! Even though the problem started long before the warranty period, because we are now just out of warranty they wipe their hands! All we asked for was an engineer to come and assess the problem. Given the fault may lie with their initial installation, you would of thought a gesture of goodwill to assess the situation was not too much to ask! Beautiful bifold doors but totally unusable!!

Reply from VELFAC
Many thanks for sorting so promptly. We are very pleased with the refit and thanks to Jon and colleague who attended on site.
We really appreciate the good customer service we have received from Dovista. Top class. Thank-you
